Trump will be visiting the US-Mexico border at #Calexico on Friday.

David Fahrenthold Retweeted

It really says something when the federal government installs a plaque with a falsehood.



CONFIRMED: President Trump will be visiting the US-Mexico border at #Calexico on Friday. The White House says he will tour the section of the border fence with this plaque, marking the “completion of the first section of President Trump’s #BorderWall.”

Here is the first shred of evidence.
Is there any other section of wall with a plaque?

I've been to Calexico and on one of the main east-west streets of town the north side was the US and the south side was Mexico where there was a delightful cafe. There was no customs station or ICE
at that time. Wotta fool Trump is!

It was a wonderful and broadening experience. The people were friendly and hard-working. Loved my time there!
