Trump falsely boasted that some of them have told me that we should have done it.
All four living former presidents deny telling Donald Trump that they support his long-promised border wall, contradicting the presidents false claim that his predecessors told me that we should have built the wall.
This should have been done by all of the presidents that preceded me, and they all know it, Trump said during a news conference on Friday. Some of them have told me that we should have done it.
On Monday, former President Jimmy Carter joined the three other living former presidents in confirming that Trump lied about the claim.
I have not discussed the border wall with President Trump, and do not support him on the issue, Carter said in a statement through his presidential center.
Spokesmen for former Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush told Politico Friday that neither of them had discussed the border wall with Trump. Former President Barack Obamas spokesman declined to comment.

(17,984 posts)It doesn't matter what he says. They believe it without question. That's why we need to find a way to shut him the hell up. Krazy glue to the lips comes to mind.

(15,682 posts)However, Obama has repeatedly railed against Trumps proposal for a border wall.
We cant just put walls up all around America. Walls dont keep out threats like terrorism or disease ― and thats why we propose leading our alliances and helping other countries develop, and pushing back against tyrants, Obama said in a speech in September.
During Trumps presidential campaign in 2016, Obama called the wall impractical and quipped: Good luck with that.
