$100 saws make quick work of Trump's 'virtually inpenetrable' border wall

He’s building a wall — and they’re cutting holes right through it.

Migrants and smugglers have succeeded in cutting through President Donald Trump’s “virtually inpenetrable” border wall using cordless saws that cost as little as $100 apiece at hardware stores, border agents and officials told The Washington Post.

Trump administration officials admitted being aware of “a few instances” in which human smugglers managed to breach rebuilt sections of the $10 billion wall that Trump once promised Mexico would pay for, the paper reported.

The widely available saws can cut through the wall’s steel bollards within a matter of minutes. The 30-foot-tall panels can then be easily pushed forward, allowing people to pass through.

He picked the type of fencing only made by Deripaska because it was soooo much better. Lies!!! It was & is part of his payoff to Russia for stealing the election for him.
