While President Trump and his aides have focused on national
security and crime issues to justify their controversial plan to build a thousand-mile
wall along the US-Mexico border, an anonymous White House aide suggests that a
more prosaic concern might be at the root of the President’s obsession with
this project.
“It was Barron’s idea, okay? Please tell me you’re not taping this.”
“But this is unbelievable.”
“Believe it. One
time young Barron heard his father grumbling about all the illegal immigrants in
the country and said, ‘you know, Dad, it
would be really neat if we built a great big wall to keep them all out.’”
“And that was it?”
“No, Mr. Trump told him, ‘son, we just can’t build a
wall around the country,’ which prompted Mrs. Trump to ask, ‘Vy not, Donald?’”
“So he just wants to make his son happy?”
“More like his wife.
Have you seen Mrs. Trump? [Makes hourglass figure with crude whistle] Well, she let Mr. Trump that there would be
no more [Repeats gesture and whistle] until the wall was built. Now the President feels like he only has a
couple of more years of [makes mock pelvic thrusts with another crude whistle]
left in him, so he really wants to get this done. And fast. This is why the talks with Speaker Pelosi have
been really awkward – he doesn’t think she gets it.”
