This is something said by the President* of the United States on Thursday.
They say a wall is medieval, well so is a wheel. A wheel is older than a wall...The wheel is older than the wall, you know that? There are some things that work. You know what? A wheel works and a wall works. Nothing like a wall.
Neither walls nor wheels are medieval. Some walls are. Some wheels are.
Why do we bother?
