Trump Holds Event at Border Wall Obama Built

Washington Post: “Donald Trump came here on Thursday to heap praise on the structure standing to his right — ‘the Rolls-Royce of walls,’ he called it — and lament the unused segments lying to his left. Joining him there, Border Patrol union leader Paul Perez called the standing fence ‘Trump wall’ and the idle parts ‘Kamala wall,’ after his Democratic opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris.”

“Those labels were inaccurate. This section of 20-foot steel slats was actually built during former president Barack Obama’s administration. Trump added the unfinished extension up the hillside, an engineering challenge that cost at least $35 million a mile. The unused panels of 30-foot beams were procured during the Trump administration and never erected.”
