Tear down that wall

Trump’s Fox News spokesperson says they can’t do a thing about all that fencing, it’s not their decision, they have nothing to do with it, they’re helpless.

When asked about the barriers around Lafayette Square during her White House briefing, press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said the matter was not in White House control.

Trump has absolute powers of all kinds, he keeps telling us, but when it comes to all this hardware, no, it’s a higher power that decides when it stays and when it goes.

House speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate minority leader Chuck Schumer are now calling on Trump to remove the barriers, arguing Lafayette Square “has long been a venue where Americans can gather to freely exercise their constitutional rights in close proximity to the White House.”
