Excerpts From Trump’s Conversation With Journalists on Air Force One

They have an 8,000 year culture. So when they see 1776 — to them, that’s like a modern building. The White House was started — was essentially built in 1799. To us, that’s really old. To them, that’s like a super modern building, right?

One of the things with the wall is you need transparency. You have to be able to see through it. In other words, if you can’t see through that wall — so it could be a steel wall with openings, but you have to have openings because you have to see what’s on the other side of the wall.

And I’ll give you an example. As horrible as it sounds, when they throw the large sacks of drugs over, and if you have people on the other side of the wall, you don’t see them — they hit you on the head with 60 pounds of stuff? It’s over. As crazy as that sounds, you need transparency through that wall. But we have some incredible designs.

I’m a tremendous fracker

Sometimes i honestly cant believe this is the world we live in now. A world where a barely coherent, clearly in over his head, moron, runs the most powerful country in the world.
I read a great explanation of how Trump got elected the other day. Basically saying that he was elected essentially as one giant "strawberry float you" to liberals (and also election hacking but w/ever). But it makes sense when you read stuff like T_D. No matter what Trump does, or his family does, wether its making fun of disabled people, or pissing off other countries, his supporters will always lap it up, because it pisses off Liberals. If you take alook at T_D the day of any Trump scandal, they literally spin EVERYTHING as a win for them and Trump. As long as Trump keeps Trumping, he could make good on his promise of shooting someone in the middle of 5th Avenue, and he wont lose a single voter because everything he does infuriates liberals, which after 8 years of Obama, is exactly what the right wants.

But the Chinese are 8000 years old. Your 18 month old niece will look like a super modern human to them, right?

Santos: It's true, Republicans have tried to turn 'liberal' into a bad word. Well, liberals ended slavery in this country.
Vinick: A Republican president ended slavery.
Santos: Yes, a liberal Republican. What happened to them? They got run out of your party. What did liberals do that was so offensive to the Republican party? I'll tell you what they did. Liberals got women the right to vote. Liberals got African-Americans the right to vote. Liberals created social security and lifted millions of elderly people out of poverty. Liberals ended segregation. Liberals passed the Civil Rights Act, the Voting Rights Act, Liberals created Medicare. Liberals passed the Clean Air Act, and the Clean Water Act. What did Conservatives do? They opposed every one of those programs. Every one. So when you try to hurl the word 'liberal' at my feet, as if it were dirty, something to run away from, something that I should be ashamed of, it won't work, Senator, because I will pick up that label and wear it as a badge of honor.

WH staff: Mr President. You need to be transparent about the wall. Let the press know the details.

One hour later...

Trump: One of the things with the wall is you need transparency. You have to be able to see through it. In other words, if you can’t see through that wall — so it could be a steel wall with openings, but you have to have openings because you have to see what’s on the other side of the wall.
