Wind blows down part of Trump's border wall. (Not the Onion)

https://www.rawstory.com/2020/01/trumps-border-wall-collapsed-in-the-wind-now-questions-raised-about-what-happens-when-it-rains/

Just this week a part of President Donald Trump’s border wall collapsed under heavy winds. It highlighted one of the obsticles to Trump’s Mexico border barrier.

Ironically, the threat of climate change will be brutal on Trump’s wall. Flash flooding, high winds, hurricanes and other storms, and dramatic swings in temperature can ultimately make the wall more susceptible to issues.


Can't make this shit up!
