The wind blew over Trump’s “wall”

[Maxdeath]

Got to love the poorly educated left. They claim that everyone that doesn't fall in line with climate change is stupid. That they need to listen to the experts. Well where immigration and the border is concerned the Border Patrol are the experts. They say that we need a wall instead of open border or a falling down fence but the left in all their poorly educated opinion thinks that they know more then those that deal with the border everyday.

We don't want a 40' concrete wall. Fencing would be far less expensive & do just about as well.

You mean you don't want any wall or fencing. Fixed it for you.
Problem is the experts don't agree with you. Nothing says self important then thinking you set policy from your mothers basement.

Democrats have supported border barriers.

They said no to Trump's wall.

You mean like the three strand barb wire fence? Or are you talking the miles of fencing that they talked about but never appropriated money for? Perhaps you are talking about the current democrat presidential candidates that say they will tear down the border walls? Maybe you mean those in congress that want to do away with border patrol and ICE?
Oh I know it is the sanctuary cities and states. Maybe the mayor that warned of the ICE raid? Probably you are talking about the walls around Warren, Sanders and other democrat mansions.

It's not stupid to build a wall between the United States and Mexico. Why would you think it is?

I have breached walls. As a fixed fortification, any of them can be breached or avoided. This one was destroyed by a 37 mile per hour breeze after it was re-enforced. My house doesn't even lose shingles in a 37 mile per hour breeze. At least, nobody was hurt.

We're going to have a wall, we're going to have safety: Trump

You house would lose a lot more then a shingle or two if it was constructed on concrete that was not cured.

Probably why you cannot get Lowes to put up a 6 foot privacy fences with wind warnings out around here, of course that is not high dollar government contracts.

The reason they won't put up anything in high wind warnings is simply that materials like wood metal or others tend to be unmanageable and actually can hurt someone if a gust of wind moves them unexpectedly. Has nothing to due with concrete curing. Simple matter of they don't want someone hurt. Liability and perhaps a bit of caring about the people who work for them.

Dude! It ain't rocket science. The contractor was a dumb ass. Materials, as you said are hard to manage, wind load pushes newly set sections over makes them lean before concrete in bottom of post holes can set. It's kind of basic to the task. I know that fence contractors will not set privacy fence in a 30 -37 mph around here, because it does not work. It guarantees they will have to go back out and redo the job or not get paid by Lowes. Small fence contractor are smarter than that, The contractor doing the border fence is apparently unfamiliar with wind load, probably just glad to get a government contract, more afraid of falling behind than doing a good job. I'm glad the administration hires "only the best people."

It is stupid to build walls to protect us from people who make our beds and mow our lawns

Yep, these dudes are making beds and mowing lawns...haha
You dumbmotherfuckers!

Dude have you ever worked any type of construction?
Wind can come up at a moments notice. Worked on many projects. Have seen engineers tell companies things that have no bearing in real life. So an engineer could have claimed it was fine. No way to tell from the article since it is very short on any facts.
If you really think that Trump was personally responsible for hiring that contractor you need a serious mental evaluation. But it is fun to pretend that any failure is his fault right?

Or a sudden wind burst hit it. They can’t plan for that. Weather does change, you know.

Let me get this straight...So our billionaire president is a complete dumbass, professional contractors building the wall are complete dumbasses but a bunch of TDS infected whackos spending their days in cyberspace badmouthing the Orange Guy and begging for free shit...are all brilliant motherfuckers?

It's not stupid to build a wall between the United States and Mexico. Why would you think it is?

Because it doesn’t fucking work. A) There is already a network of tunnels B) People just fucking climb over it C) A lot of the land is on private land so the court battle over such a thing would go on forever D) 25% of undocumented Mexicans living here came here legally initially but have overstayed their visas. E) The cost of maintaining the wall would go until the end of time.

However...we want a wall. You have failed to convince. Get out of the way.

Trump should start selling a bumper sticker to sell to his followers: "Build the wall to protect us against Mexicans who overstay their visas!"

 

[Yarddog]

Lol I love it. I wouldn’t have expected the wind to blow it over, but I know it’s a useless idea so let this be a symbolic sign of the stupidity of the policy.

Physics defies morons!

The fucking concrete was fresh ya nut. Tall object without a solid base because it hadn't yet cured catches the wind and is blown over.

And SOMEHOW this amuses you???

It will continue to be a mystery to them how these things work. They have the same problem with why you impeach someone

You’re still on that “walls don’t work” bullshit? Haha
Meanwhile wetbacks in Mexico build walls to keep other wetbacks out...but, but, but...we’re stupid for building walls to keep wetbacks out...haha

Ya, what a great way to light billions of dollars on fire! Even when it goes right easy to get over and then the dumb fucks that are building the wall are not smart enough to butress the wall while cement is drying!

Lol what the fuck ever. The fucking wind blew this down. If someone tried to punch through it maybe you’d have a point. Either way, it’s a testament to how stupid this idea is.

Punch through it?

You think someone punching is more forceful than the wind?
You "cement" your ignorance with every post. Cured cement to boot

Uh yeah someone’s fist is stronger than wind lol

How many pounds of force do you think a punch can exert on the 6 square inches it impacts? Now THINK about the force a high wind applies to an ENTIRE OBJECT.....

Unbelievably stupid

It's symbolic only of your desperation and ignorance of how things get built

Look carefully its the last section of the wall they were still putting up. The trench was not completely filled in, the concrete was still wet, ... you can see they had some bracing still down at the bottom. It was a construction set back that will be fixed. Once it is in place and the concrete dries it will be incredibly strong.My question is, how desperate is CNN to come up with a negative story on Trump, that they report on such a Non- story? Its a sorry excuse for news reporting

He just got a SC decision to disallow people who likely can't support themselves from getting green cards. That will save us God knows how many billions on welfare programs, because statistically, legal immigrants have a higher percentage of welfare users than we Americans.

Trump is working on it, and would be more successful if the commies would stay out of our way.

If the wind takes it and it tilts, it's on the builder, not the taxpayer. They have to take it back down and put it back up so it doesn't tilt.

Not to worry because you're not getting concrete walls. Trump picked out some models but the border patrol didn't care for them very much. They wanted barriers they could see through because of tunnel building and those who approach the border. It would give them more time to react.
