Don’t look now, but the incomplete Trump border wall was a colossal waste of federal funds and is now being widely panned as an epic failure!
Politics
In an attempt to appease his MAGA racists fanatics, Donald Trump opted to keep his campaign promise to build what he deemed would be a “beautiful wall” along the US/Mexico border in order to keep those (dirty) Latinos out of the good ol’ US of A. However, he ran into 2 immediate problems. First, he realized he couldn’t afford it and had to raid defense department funds in order to pay for it. Then, he discovered only weeks before he was forced to leave The White House that the wall was far from finished and he had no plan in place to complete it.
Realizing that he had run out of time after failing to steal a 2nd term via his wild claims of voter fraud, ‘The Donald’ made a mad dash during his final weeks to finish the wall that he started. His efforts failed!
Now, a sad and incomplete Trump border wall stands along the southern border — in pieces!
The Huachuca Mountains in Arizona is an area where migrants rarely attempt to cross into the United States. However, there stands a lonely segment of the incomplete Trump border wall that is connected to absolutely nothing.
“There it was, this unfinished piece of completely pointless wall, right in this magical place,” said Julia Sheehan, a former Air Force mechanic who trekked to the site with 3 other military veterans while hiking the Arizona Trail. “It’s one of the most senseless things I’ve ever seen.”
Yes, despite Trump’s claims that the wall construction was coming along nicely and was close to being finished, the opposite was true. In fact, the wall was in such disarray that incoming migrants have been able to easily walk around the incomplete segments as if they were never there.
The quarter-mile fragment of wall in Arizona is only 1 of several bizarre segments along the border that Trump ordered contractors to rush to complete in the waning days of his administration. Clearly, the construction came nowhere near completion.

With a price tag of more than $15 billion, President Biden has made clear he will not continue with the wall construction. However, Mr. Biden and his administration are faced with another dilemma: what do they do with the unsightly and incomplete Trump border wall?
Critics of the wall are urging the president to tear it down and restore the natural beauty of the environment in those regions, while Republican leaders are urging him to finish the project.
With Donald Trump out of The White House and the threat of COVID-19 beginning to wane, illegal immigrants have resumed (and, in fact, stepped up) their efforts to migrate to the US. Newly confirmed Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is now charged with figuring out what to do about the incomplete Trump border wall as well as the influx of immigrants wanting into the US.

Uh-huh. And to that I say….Naturally. Of course it’s an “epic Failure.” And WE knew that it would be because it’s the brainchild of Trump after all….and WE know that that’s the one thing Trump really IS a master at…..Failing. And not just Failing….but Failing spectacularly. It’s his one true gift and he’s been doing it his whole life. Failing.
Yes indeed. rich white male privilege has afforded him endless opportunities to FAIL his way forward in life over and over and over again. And by “gawd” the guy has always taken full advantage of that rich white male privilege….to be the “bestest” FAILURE a rich white male can be.
