Every time I think he couldn't say anything dumber...

...Trump manages to say something that sounds like it's from the Onion. It's like he's his own parody. Here's What he really said about the border wall:

"One of the things with the wall is you need transparency. You have to be able to see through it. In other words, if you can’t see through that wall — so it could be a steel wall with openings, but you have to have openings because you have to see what’s on the other side of the wall.

"And I’ll give you an example. As horrible as it sounds, when they throw the large sacks of drugs over, and if you have people on the other side of the wall, you don’t see them — they hit you on the head with 60 pounds of stuff? It’s over. As crazy as that sounds, you need transparency through that wall. But we have some incredible designs."

Really? A transparent wall so we don't get hit in the head with flying drugs?

who hang out at the wall. The good news is that under the GOP health plan they won't go to the hospital because a bag of dope bounced off their heads.
