Wait, beside the idiotic idea of black paint being hotter than searing rusted metal… We’re only painting the exit side? The dumb surrounded by the dumber.

Actually, the paint that you have to use on steel is heat resistant, so it will be cooler. Just another stupid way to funnel tax dollars to campaign donors like Sherwin-Williams.

Graffiti has been painted on the fence, showing a better life in America and happy people. That’s why Trump is painting it black.

Plus there is a thing called night.

The Trump Administration do love their optics though. It looks like they're doing "something" when they're just being stupid and wasteful.

Of course, matte black high friction paint will be the perfect choice to prevent those pesky climbers with gloves from, well, escaping.

They’re convinced we can’t store solar power, but somehow, the black paint is going to hold the sun’s heat all night? Could their stupid at least be consistent!?!

How many people have been caught trying to climb the fence?

We are ruled by some of the dumbest humans in history. And i would remind you that, for thousands of years of human history, countries were ruled by people whose parents were cousins.

Yeah, desired cruelty, and executed with stupidity. I’m actually surprised they are not painting it gold.

Anyone who's ever been on a playground or sat in a metal patio chair knows that dark red is just as bad as black. 💰waste-fraud-abuse

Most of them use saws and/or just go to the areas that don’t have any fencing🙄

Or we can all face the reality that any wall designed to keep others out can be used to keep us in.

Make no mistake the fascists won’t let the plebs flee when the plebs figure out who the new underpaid and exploited day labors will be when all the immigrants are deported.

It's even dumber than that. Dementia Don had it painted it black in April 2020. It started peeling off about a year and a half after it was applied. Dumberer, if that can be a word, the border wall is constantly being breached a dozen times a day. www.cato.org/blog/border-...

The Mexican side is being painted with a mural. I think some inspired "artists" here should use the black as a canvas too. You don't have to be super talented, remember, words are art too!

Oh, restricting the movement of the citizenry is next. The absolute mark of a dictator. It won’t work, but it will definitely keep the courts busy, what’s left of them.

You can buy a saws-all for about $60.

Guarantee a land owner in TX bitched about the unsightly rusted metal, and his handlers made up the "to make it hotter" bullshit so we wouldn't question the first part...

I thought desert and woodland camo would be better. Let it disappear into the background. Or mirror finish? Can't climb what you can't find. Most don't go over the fence, anyway. Too obvious. So of course, a stupid and costly plan to be inhumane.
