President @realDonaldTrump is in Yuma, Arizona, to commemorate the completion of 200+ miles of border wall! pic.twitter.com/4hjKyvLSkC— The White House (@WhiteHouse) June 23, 2020
Wait a minute:
On December 17, 2019, acting Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection Mark Morgan stated that 93 miles of barriers has been built during the Trump administration; according to CBP figures, at least 90 miles of that replaced existing structures.
Border Patrol says they've built 216 miles, which means they've added 123 miles since December.
The US/Mexico border is 1,954 miles. Not gonna be finished by January.
But that wall has saved lives!

I think Mexico did that, actually, by blocking Americans from crossing the border. Besides, we have a catastrophe north of that border anyway, so not much to brag about, really.
The President is also all about protecting statues:

Yeah, he has bugger all to do with that. And the law protects statutes of people in the U.S. military, which probably doesn't cover Confederate generals and soldiers. And I'm putting all pronouncements from Trump about it alongside the claims he told the Administration to slow down testing, something Fauci's never heard of......This action is taken effective immediately, but may also be used retroactively for destruction or vandalism already caused. There will be no exceptions!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 23, 2020
Trump couldn't manage a two-car funeral procession.
Lagniappe!
This tweet:
There will never be an “Autonomous Zone” in Washington, D.C., as long as I’m your President. If they try they will be met with serious force!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) June 23, 2020
Has been marked by Twitter as violating their policies. It hasn't been removed, but it's "masked." Even his bluster is getting silenced.
