A quick update on Donald Trump’s day in San Diego to look at prototypes for the wall he wants that Mexico is totally going to pay for: Trump says the wall is needed because immigrants,” are like professional mountain climbers.”
“Getting over the top is easy. These are like professional mountain climbers, incredible climbers. They can’t climb some of these walls,” Trump told reporters. “Some of them they can. Those are the walls we’re not using.”

Update: Trump also announced that he would also like something called a “Space Force” to fight in, you guessed it, space.
Trump: “We should have a new force called the Space Force. It’s like the Army and the Navy, but for space, because we’re spending a lot of money on space.” pic.twitter.com/p7YVX6gecz
