I came up with a tremendous suggestion for The Donald that I really wanted to share. Tremendous. I hear his legacy wall on the southern border may cost hundreds of billions of dollars and he may not be able to deliver on his promise to make Mexico pay for it. "Nobody knew it would be so complicated."
Now, I know he's really proud of using other people's money to fund his various projects, but it may take Congress some time to come up with that kind of cash.
Shouldn't be too hard. They can take it from the education budget, since I hear the schools in the states will all be privatized soon. (Are you taking notes, Christy?) But even that will take time and "time is money" as the rich people say.
I can hear him now:
"Better idea. Better idea. Why not get the Chinese to build the Great Wall? They built the original one. And I hear they didn't' pay their contractors either. Darn good negotiators, those Chinese. But they gotta do it right. They gotta do it right.
"OK, Chinese people, you gotta build this one east-west, not north-south like the one you built back home, OK? We want to separate Texas from Mexico, not NEW Mexico! I assume some of them are good people. Oh....and that long thing dangling off the end of California... that should be our side of the wall 'cuz it's called California too. I read it on the map when I when I looked up where Mexico was. Well, actually, Steve read it to me, but...that would make a heck of a golf course, wouldn't it?
"And I know you like to build your walls with stone. Shouldn't be a problem. Shouldn't be a problem. We have all these toppled over Jewish headstones lying around in our graveyards.
"That'll be a start. Tidy up the graveyards and build a wall.
"Two birds with one shotgun or whatever.
"And if you finish in good time... chop, chop... you can go back to your laundries and restaurants or whatever. I said that right, didn't I, Steve? Chop, chop. They'll understand that, right?
"Build up the wall! Build up the wall! Hey, that was song, wasn't it Steve? Why are you shaking your head? It wasn't a song? I thought it was a song. Anyway, I got the New Mexico thing right didn't I? I knew that was the good Mexico, the new one.
"Now that we got that settled, I want to unite all Americans. How do we do that? Any ideas, Steve?"
Curiouser and curiouser.
