God Sends a Sign: Trump’s ‘Impenetrable’ Vanity Wall Gets Blown Over in Mild Windstorm
There is a metaphor here somehwere if I could just get my finger on it.
First, before we even begin, let’s just note that nothing on the border between the U.S. and Mexico is a “Wall.” If you want to see a “Big Beautiful Wall” go to China, which built theirs about 20,000 years ago (or something). We cannot properly build a fence.
People that properly build fences understand that – if they’re built outside, as most fences are – there will be wind, occasionally. You know what’s coming, obviously.
Yes, the wind blew over a portion of the “fence” that Trump did have rebuilt, and called it “a wall.” It blew over, and just to make the symbolism as perfect as the bribe of Ukraine, the fence may well now be the property of the Mexican government … since it fell into their country. Right, CNN?
Newly installed panels from the US border wall fell over in high winds Wednesday, landing on trees on the Mexican side of the border.
Oh for godsake.
The area is part of an ongoing construction project to improve existing sections of the wall.
Agent Carlos Pitones of the Customs and Border Protection sector in El Centro, California, told CNN that the sections that gave way had recently been set in a new concrete foundation in Calexico, California. The concrete had not yet cured, according to Pitones, and the wall panels were unable to withstand the windy conditions.
Dear reader, don’t hang your head. When the U.S. was testing rockets in New Mexico in the 40s and 50s to fit for bombs, the early test rockets were unable to withstand the “wind” (aka “air”), either. We sent a few missiles that … missed, and landed in Mexico. Yes, we have thrown property into Mexico before. Actually, we have bombed Mexico before, if you want to be technical. This could be considered an improvement.

Actually, since we’re refusing to cover more impeachment replays -because they’re just saying the same thing over and over, you get a very short story.
We maybe did something even ruder to the Mexican government back in the 60s. Admittedly, this is tinfoil hat stuff, except to the Mexican government which officially accused the U.S. of doing it, IF you believe the legend. We actually went into the northern Mexican desert and stole something that “sorta” belonged to Mexico.
We stole a UFO that hit a small plane and crashed in northern Mexico.
I know, I know. No, we didn’t. Because we don’t believe in UFOs – or at least you don’t.
But I do think we can all agree that IF a UFO did crash in Mexico that day, you have no doubt we definitely went and stole that fcker immediately. I know you’ll agree absolutely on that.
I would give you a link but it’ll be to some insane website and you’ll laugh at me, which is fine.
But you do have to admit that having our fence blown into Mexico is somewhat less intrusive than having our missiles smash into Mexico, or just outright stealing their shit, or – again, something they were damn well going to claim as theirs. Am I right?
It’s late for me. Forgive me.
The fence blew down. Wind.
Who knew?
Mexico knew. They’re used to it at this point.
****
Peace, y’all
