(course he'd have to hire undocumented 'aliens' to construct that pile of s*it)

"-It's widely known that Trump voters support building a wall on the border with Mexico to keep undocumented immigrants out of the country. We find that 31% of them also support building a wall along the Atlantic Ocean to keep Muslims from entering the country from the Middle East. 52% are opposed to that idea."

Should we be happy that it's only 31%? I don't know any more.

Donald Trump Model Management?
Is there anything Mr.Eponymous hasn't tried to slap his name on?
Oh...wait a minute..... how could I forget?

Meanwhile... rumour has it that, upon election, the human branding iron will exert influence at the Vatican to substitute his hallowed likeness for that of low-energy Adam - on the Sistine Chapel ceiling.

Trump Tours will offer student discount packages next summer, on a resurrected Trump Air, to view the Trump likeness overhead in the Holy Moly! ceiling fresco.

It should be noted that humility, coupled with pressure from the Christian Right(eous) ( he can't yet discard them) prevailed when he finally opted to replace Adam:
He was gonna 'go for the GO(L)D'.....
Yep, Trump was restrained from seeking to replace God with Himself - in the Michelangelo masterpiece.
Shouldn't be overlooked however, that he still courts focus on fingers (and other unfavourablle comparisons)
Risky

Looking at Adam's chipolata, you know there may be a Trump family resemblance there.

Trump stated that the topic of who would pay for a wall "didn't come up" at his meeting with the Mexican president, who has apparently just tweeted that he made it clear right at the start of the meeting that his country wasn't paying!

Trump-head piñata sales are skyrocketing in Mexico. I guess that's his contribution to "job creation". Wrong side of the border though.

How will the wall actually work? Where the international border is a river, where will the wall be? And where the international border reaches the sea, at both ends, how far out to sea will the wall extend? Three mile, or twelve?

Those are details. If you get hung up on details, you miss the bigger picture, which is that it's going to be big, it's going to be awesome, and it's going to be free. Trump says so, and we know he never lies.

Is it still an actual physical wall, I thought it was a metaphorical wall now.

This is lengthy and was gonna just link to it, but as it's in the public domain...

Mending Wall (1914) by Robert Frost

Something there is that doesn't love a wall,
That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it,
And spills the upper boulders in the sun;
And makes gaps even two can pass abreast.
The work of hunters is another thing:
I have come after them and made repair
Where they have left not one stone on a stone,
But they would have the rabbit out of hiding,
To please the yelping dogs. The gaps I mean,
No one has seen them made or heard them made,
But at spring mending-time we find them there.
I let my neighbour know beyond the hill;
And on a day we meet to walk the line
And set the wall between us once again.
We keep the wall between us as we go.
To each the boulders that have fallen to each.
And some are loaves and some so nearly balls
We have to use a spell to make them balance:
"Stay where you are until our backs are turned!"
We wear our fingers rough with handling them.
Oh, just another kind of out-door game,
One on a side. It comes to little more:
There where it is we do not need the wall:
He is all pine and I am apple orchard.
My apple trees will never get across
And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him.
He only says, "Good fences make good neighbours."
Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder
If I could put a notion in his head:
"Why do they make good neighbours? Isn't it
Where there are cows? But here there are no cows.
Before I built a wall I'd ask to know
What I was walling in or walling out,
And to whom I was like to give offence.
Something there is that doesn't love a wall,
That wants it down." I could say "Elves" to him,
But it's not elves exactly, and I'd rather
He said it for himself. I see him there
Bringing a stone grasped firmly by the top
In each hand, like an old-stone savage armed.
He moves in darkness as it seems to me,
Not of woods only and the shade of trees.
He will not go behind his father's saying,
And he likes having thought of it so well
He says again, "Good fences make good neighbours."
