Mike Pompeo Laments Cruelty Of The Berlin Wall And It's Too Ironic For Tweeters
“Mike Pompeo speaking about how walls are cruel is like watching a shark say the sight of blood makes it faint.”
Twitter users blasted Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Friday after he lamented the “horrific conditions” that had been endured by people who until 1989 were cut off from the West by the Berlin Wall.
Critics accused Pompeo of hypocrisy, given how a cornerstone of President Donald Trump’s administration is to build a barrier between the U.S. and Mexico
“I’m so proud speaking mere feet from where the wall once stood to celebrate its demise now three decades ago,” said Pompeo ― who served in the U.S. military on the Iron Curtain border in the late 1980s ― at the Koerber Global Leaders Dialogue event in Berlin on the eve of the 30th anniversary of the wall’s fall.
