More fencing going up around the White House complex early this morning pic.twitter.com/VLBRnx1lgz

Donald Trump is finally, kinda-sorta getting his “big, beautiful wall”—not along the southern border, mind you, but around the White House. Like much of the wall he made a symbol of his xenophobic presidential campaign in 2016, this barrier is actually fencing reinforcing what was already there. But the fencing authorities installed around the White House is taller than what had surrounded the complex before, designed to keep at bay the protesters who prompted the president to retreat into an underground bunker last weekend.
The new fortification—which a Secret Service source told Fox News is “standard anti-riot fencing and ranges from seven feet to more than nine feet high”—comes amid days of largely peaceful protests outside the White House. On Friday, after some of those demonstrating against systemic racism and police brutality breached temporary fences near the White House, Trump and his family were whisked into a secure bunker—a sore spot for the president, who has spent days now trying to convince everyone that he wasn’t rattled by the episode and that he’s actually super brave. On Monday, he more or less declared war on protesters in the Rose Garden and made a show of walking off the White House grounds to a historic church that had been damaged in the demonstrations. But the tough-guy act was undermined by the fact that he used chemical agents and rubber bullets on peaceful protesters to clear the way for the stunt. Foiled in his initial attempt to save face, he tried a new tack on Wednesday: Claiming, hilariously, that he had actually only gone down to the bunker for an “inspection” of the space.
While the president is attempting to project a lack of concern about the protests, the escalation in security precautions suggest otherwise.
There is no doubt that the Bunkerbitch is scared out of his mind.
Donald Trump is a terrified child suddenly aware that he is not only wildly unpopular but that the American people may not be willing to wait until November for him to leave office.
Somebody on social media recently said that “Politicians get voted out of office, dictators get dragged out into the streets.”
I do not actually support or condone any acts of aggression or violence against Donald Trump.
However, I will say that if something like that were to happen that it would be solely and completely his own fault.

I’m beginning to wonder if he’ll take an easy out over losing the election. Narcissists CANNOT lose but they play a mean victim…maybe an illness? My husband doesn’t agree with me and says he’ll never give it up but I didn’t think he’d ever be in this bad of shape with the electorate and he’s starting to lose republicans.
He wasn’t cut out for it from the start, only wanted the perks and adulation. In 3-1/2 years, look what he’s done.
He underestimated the citizenry of this country, we aren’t freaking Russia, so deal with it donnie dumb@ss.
If the adderall no longer helps, there’s always propofol.
I want an accounting of exactly how much trump cost the taxpayers in golf outings and who know how many decorating projects at his resorts ” for security”
I also want an accounting of the cost to send ivanka, eric and donnie jr for their security, vacations and business trips.
there is no price that can be put on the destruction of our Constitution and other havoc he has caused to our country.
They may have to drag him from the WH, we are going to hear for the next 8 years that the election was rigged, but there is no way that he stays in power after he LOSES, no matter what he threatens.
Hopefully, twitter will shut down his account.
His problems are many. There is a YUGE loan repayment due to the Chinese over some New York real estate. I doubt he can pay it. If he’s not president any more he has no political leverage and can’t suck money from the U.S. taxpayer either.
Then there are the legal issues. He can’t be indicted while he is a sitting president but he sure can once he’s out. He may decide to take Air Force One to a non-extradition country on Jan 18. Will probably have Jared and Ivanka move as much money to the Caymans right after the election. He’ll try to delegitimize the election and hold on but I think he’ll see the writing on the wall and decide to escape the law instead.
If he owes the Russian mob, there is no place on this earth he can hide. They’ll find him and no amount of Secret Service or hired security is going to stop them if they want his head on a platter.
Personally, I’m surprised Trump isn’t already dead. From a heart attack or stroke. The pressure on him must be enormous. Well, beyond what a normal president would handle. He’s brought a lot of it on himself but being a racist, a malignant narcissistic psychopath and an idiot.
Then there’s the dementia.
Assholes live forever.
Biblical prophecy coming true.

There is no doubt that the Bunkerbitch is scared out of his mind…$hitting his depends.
GiTmo or Leavenworth…Sing Sing…”PALIN: Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years.”

Trump had nothing to say. So again, he just started talking about himself.

think of it if Hillary was president… she’s tought. the right got who they wanted-now it’s THEIR turn to cry.
No one knows how a Hillary presidency would have been; that’s castles in your head.
Also too, plenty on the right are just fine with it.
Is this the $3million/foot type of fencing? how much did it cost the taxpayers or is he going to send the bill to the protesters? how fast can it be scaled with at rope or cut with a saw?
I like Babygate, CowardGate would also be appropriate.
Is he fencing off the area where he plans to have his gestapo parade for the July 4th, NO AMERICANS welcome?
If he thinks the fence is going to protect him after he LOSES the election, he is wrong again.

I will put my hand over my heart again when I deem it worthy.
4th of July, in my book, not much to celebrate this time around.
So, Mexico is going to pay for the wall?
Even if the wall was 100 feet tall, bristol would still find a way to get jump over it if a d*ck was on the other side.
The promised Land, bristol, the promised Land.
