There was some family fun at last week's
White House Halloween party, but there was also "a station where children were encouraged to help 'build the wall' with their own personalized construction paper bricks,"
Stephen Colbert sighed on Monday's Late Show: "After that, they also made the kids play Pin the Economic Problems on the Immigrants.""In other wall news, Trump's real wall might as well be made out of paper, because smugglers are sawing through new sections of Trump's
border wall using a popular cordless household tool known as a reciprocating saw that retails at hardware stores for as little as $100," Colbert said. But "if you think it's outrageous that we spent $10 billion on something you can breach with a trip to Lowes, Trump wants you to see the big picture," he added, suggesting how Trump could update his "Build the Wall" chant.
"Yep, that's right, just after Trump bragged about his super wall, we learned that smugglers have been cutting through the new border wall with basic tools you can buy at any hardware store," Trevor Noah said at The Daily Show. "And I honestly wouldn't be shocked if the guys at Home Depot showed the smugglers how to do it, because those guys will help you with any project."
"Now you might think that Trump would be humiliated by the news that smugglers are cutting through his uncuttable border wall," but instead Trump just shrugged, admitted you can cut through any wall, and claimed it was built to be breached and fixed, Noah said, perplexed. "If Trump is saying he built it on purpose to be something that's easy to open and then close, it isn't a wall. My man, you've built a door."
"He spent the last four years saying he's going to build a wall nobody would be able to penetrate; the minute they cut through it, he's like, 'Well, yeah, if you buy a saw!'" Jimmy Kimmel said at Kimmel Live. "Only Donny Wall-burg would be dumb enough to bet his border strategy on Mexicans having never been to a Home Depot." Watch below.
