Everyone piles on after Donald Trump posts idiotic new picture of his fake wall

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

You probably recall when Donald Trump tweeted an image of his proposed border wall / fence / collection of poles a few weeks back that looked like it had been created by a two year old with finger paint. Trump has apparently decided that the best way to make people forget about that debacle is to post a new and even more embarrassing picture of his imaginary wall, so that’s what he did today. It didn’t go well.

Donald Trump posted this tweet today: “The Fake News Media keeps saying we haven’t built any NEW WALL. Below is a section just completed on the Border. Anti-climbing feature included. Very high, strong and beautiful! Also, many miles already renovated and in service!” Okay, fine so be it – except he included this image of his supposed wall:

Um, no. First, as so many respondents pointed out, that’s not a wall. Donald Trump literally announced that a section of his “wall” had been built, and then he tried to prove it by posting an image of some metal poles instead. We tried running a Google reverse image search to try to track down where Trump got this image from, and Google returned the following result: “Best guess for this image: Fake news.” No, really, try it for yourself.
