BORDER/WALL: “The wall is a steel wall with very powerful concrete, 5,000-pound concrete in each bollard. And then in that you have rebar, very powerful rebar. It’s very, very hard to cut, very hard to do anything about. And we have to get that painted now. They have to paint it, because if they don’t paint it, bad things are happening. I’m looking, and it has to be painted. And the best color to paint it is black. Because if you paint it black, it’s so hot nobody can even try to climb it. Not that they’re successful anyway, those are anti-climb panels on top.”
