Why is he telling us he built a wall - which Obama already built - and not mention the wall which Mexico was suppose to pay for is crumbling?

Trump Picked Worst Possible Spot For New Border Wall Stunt

Donald Trump boasted of building the “Rolls Royce” of walls during a visit to a segment of border barrier in Montezuma Pass, Ariz. last week.
Just one problem: That segment of wall was actually built by the administration of President Barack Obama, according to the Washington Post.

The Cochise County Sheriff’s Office confirmed that the portion where Trump spoke was built under the Obama Administration, the Post added.


The newspaper said a nearby extension was started under the Trump administration ― at a cost of $35 million a mile ― but didn’t get very far, with much of the construction material left in piles at the site.

Trump in 2016 repeatedly vowed to build a “big beautiful wall” across the nearly 2,000-mile U. S.-Mexico border if elected.
He has claimed that he completed the task.
“I did finish the wall,” he said on CNN earlier this year. “I built a wall.”
He didn’t.

His administration replaced about 400 miles of existing wall and about 52 miles of new wall.
Some of the wall built under Trump fell in storm.
A 2022 report found the wall built under Trump was breached thousand of times using “inexpensive power tools.” Others reported the wall could be breached with a primitive ladder made from about $5 in material.
