The building of Trumps border wall has begun !

A report last night on the TV local news here in Albuquerque, NM said
“The building of Trump’s border wall has begun !”

They then went on to mention a section of the border about 33 miles long near Santa Teresa, NM,
the type of wall that ‘might’ be built,
and said construction was expected “sometime in the near future”.

I’m unclear on how that translates into “has begun”.

That "report" sounds very much like the type of "report" Sinclair orders their stations to read.

"Tear down the wall". Let trump and the trumpets know that's as long as the wall is going to last.
