After receiving only $1.6 Billion for his infamous border wall in the latest Congressional bill, Donald Trump has announced a new plan for the wall. Speaking privately to this reporter, he said, "What we'll do is build it out of junked cars. We're going to clear out all the junkyards and just stack them up in piles along the border. Big piles. Tremendous piles. We'll have the best junk piles, believe me. That will solve the problem once and for all. It'll be an art project, too. That's been done before, you know. Look it up on the Google. Here are some images of what we have in mind."

Stack 'em 16 high and we get a half million rows. That'll give us the first 425 miles of the "precious" wall.
What? It's a start, ain't it?
