Trump Trolls Obama after Secret Service Announces WH Fence Upgrade


Liberal leaders around the world just don’t seem to grasp the irony in their distaste for border security and gun rights when their own homes are protected by walls/fences and armed guards.  Donald Trump certainly sees the hypocrisy in this and chose to point it out in a Facebook post on Thursday.

NBC Washington reports that the White House is getting a security upgrade after many recent high-profile reports of fence jumpers.

“The current fence simply is not adequate for a modern era. We’ve said that before. It is becoming more and more acutely clear that that is in fact the case,” Secret Service official Tom Dougherty said in the briefing to federal officials.

“(The fence) is entirely scale-able, depending upon the circumstances. And we have now a society that tends to want to jump over the fence and onto the 18 acres,” Daugherty said in the briefing.
According to the Secret Service briefing, the agency’s plans would raise the current 6-foot-tall fence to 11 feet. A new concrete “footing” and “foundation” for the fence are also planned.
Secret Service and National Park Service plans for the new fence would also include “anti-climb features” to deter fence jumpers. Small spikes, which officials call “pencil points,” were added to the current fence in 2015 after a series of jumpers leapt the fence on to White House grounds.

So, don’t worry, folks.  Your country is completely secure with open borders.  As long as President Obama can keep people out of his house, he’s not concerned who floods into the rest of the country.
