Trump's wall, an angry Mexico and a good sense of humour
Updated | By Suné du Toit
US President Donald Trump has ordered the construction of an "impassable physical barrier" between Mexico and the United States of America.
Trump wants work to begin on planning and designing the wall, as well as ideas on funding.
Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto condemned Donald Trump's move to build a border wall, saying his country will not pay for it.
Peña Nieto is, however, still contemplating whether to cancel an upcoming meeting with Trump.
People took to social media to share some suggestions and opinions:

I like the irony that if Trump builds the wall it will probably end up as an anti-Trump graffiti covered monumental backfire.

Trump supporters would rather have their taxes used to pay for a wall versus obamacare and planned parenthood...

Rather than building the wall, Trump should just destroy the Statue of Liberty. It would get the same message across, and be a lot cheaper.

@GrahameLucas The Berlin Wall lasted 28 years. How long do we give the Trump wall?

#trump #wall like a child blockading playroom door so can't share toys. One day child grows up & realises how silly & pointless that was
