This the new dumbest thing I have heard Trump say:

Yet some people claim he has a big IQ. Kinda shows you that any loud mouthed idiot can become rich & famous if they say stupid things loudly enough.


he may well be smart and just be pandering to his base
 
'One of the things with the wall is you need transparency. You have to be able to see through it. In other words, if you can’t see through that wall — so it could be a steel wall with openings, but you have to have openings because you have to see what’s on the other side of the wall.

And I’ll give you an example. As horrible as it sounds, when they throw the large sacks of drugs over, and if you have people on the other side of the wall, you don’t see them — they hit you on the head with 60 pounds of stuff? It’s over. As crazy as that sounds, you need transparency through that wall.'

Is this man out of his mind? Where do I begin?

1) he seriously thinks that drug dealers in Mexico literally throw a 60 lb. bag of drugs (worth tens/hundreds of thousands of dollars) over the wall to a waiting drug dealer on the other side? :roll:

2) apparently, these flying drug bags might hit passing Americans who just happen to be just on the other side of the wall? So these Mexican drug dealers are throwing 60 lb. bags of drugs over a wall and they have no idea who is on the other side? :roll:

3) these must be INCREDIBLY strong drug dealers to throw a 60 pound bag of drugs over a 30+ foot border wall. And yet Trump says this could happen?!? :roll:

4) and his solution is to make the wall transparent...so people can see these drug dealers throwing bags of drugs over the wall - so they do not get hit by them. :roll:

This is the single dumbest thing I recall ever hearing a sitting President say.

I was literally laughing at the incredible absurdity of Trump's statement as I typed this.


This guy has the mind of a VERY young, VERY ignorant child.

Why do I suspect his supporters believe this is all possible?
 
Anyone ever seen a fl prison fence system? You have two 15ft or so fences separated by about 20 ft of linear space. There are rolls on top of rolls of concertina wire that will rip anything to shreads. That would be my recommendation. I to think Trump was reffering to catapults and other devices, but he did sound silly and should of elaborated a bit on what he meant.

Can't one buy wire cutters south of the border? Border trivia: the nickname among Californian Mexican-Americans for their undocumented friends used to be "alambres" (wires), or occasionally "alambristas" (wire guys), as there is no Rio Grande out here.

I was assuming perimeter sensors and personnel to respond to breached section in a timely manner.
 
The see threw wall is stupid.

As for throwing the drugs over, I don't think it is a man trying to fling it over as much as a catapult or such slinging it over.
It may sound weird or stupid for someone to toss drugs over the wall hoping for the best. But the cartels did drop bundles of coke from planes into the ocean hoping the right person picked them up

I got no proof of drugs thrown over but when it comes to snuggling drugs their are creative and inventive cartels always trying new ways and it seems plausible.

They have been known to use catapults. However, a wall isn't going to stop that unless it is ludicrously high.

Trump's statement is still retarded.
