I am waiting for Donald Trump to blurp out a tweet bragging about his "big beautiful wall" he's building in Washington, D.C., because that's what he's been doing since he gassed peaceful protesters in order to do a photo op for apocalyptic evangelicals earlier this week.

CNN reporter Betsy Klein posted these videos showing the "wall" he's building around the White House, as if the citizens of this country are an invading force.

In addition to the new fencing, which now extends past the EEOB down 17th Street, @abdallahCNN reports that additional concrete barriers have been installed behind existing fencing at 17th and Pennsylvania Ave. NW pic.twitter.com/aoULVLNFF8

From Klein's report:

Washington Mayor Muriel Bowser said Thursday she is concerned that the fencing may not be temporary, and that "it's a sad commentary that the (White) House and its inhabitants have to be walled off."

"I'm one of those people who grew up in Washington, DC, and has been very accustomed to being able to have access to all of our federal facilities, going up on the Capitol grounds ... from being able to walk all around the Supreme Court, to walk in front of the White House, on both sides, and now all of that is under threat," Bowser said during a news conference.

It's our nation's capitol, not Donald Trump's personal playground. Do we really have to put Joe Biden out somewhere along that fence calling for it to be torn down?

Of course, Twitter notices these things.

Our president is so brave he’s building a wall around the White House because he’s worried about the optics of hiding in a bunker.

No joke here:

All kidding aside, I can't help but be concerned that he isn't fortifying the White House so much for what's happening now, as what's likely to be happening later...

He's just not the peaceful transition of power type, especially if it's not to a hand-picked successor.

Pure fantasy:

So an 8 foot fence is being erected around the WH, and the perimeter is lined with prison guards?

Is this an elaborate trick of some sort?

Is he.....in jail ?

Here's the key:

Who owns stock in the fence company?

It's disgusting that these fences are being built around the parks and streets in D.C. because Donald Trump is a sniveling coward afraid of peaceful protesters. If I could, I'd come to D.C. and bring a million of my fellow Americans with me just to prove he can't build a fence strong enough to keep the CITIZENS of this nation out.

This is his way, though. All he knows is how to wall people off, not invite them in. Now he's stuck there. No golf, no fun, just feeling the loathing for his fascist ways all the way through the fence and the concrete.
