About the "San Antonio wall."

I work a blue collar job these days. My coworkers are a pretty good bunch of folks with no pretensions. If I said something so incredibly stupid as talking about a border wall in a town 150 miles from Mexico, they'd ride me for weeks -- and they damn well should.

Amazing isn't it that a guy who shleps boxes gets called on saying stupid bullshit, but the president of the United States doesn't.
