Trump says private border wall segment 'was only done to make me look bad’

Saying it was done to embarrass him, President Donald Trump on Sunday said a reportedly defective section of his new border wall should not have been built by a private company.

“I disagreed,” Trump tweeted Sunday, “with doing this very small section of wall, in a tricky area, by a private group which raised money by ads. It was only done to make me look bad, and perhsps it now doesn’t even work. Should have been built like rest of Wall, 500 plus miles.“

Eternal victim

Maybe realDonaldTrump should sue the company for a refund.

Oh FailedPrez realDonaldTrump, don't worry, it doesn't take a wall to make you look bad. But one day soon walls will become a much bigger part of your life (and decor). Sealed. They're coming for you. GOP SenateGOP

Defective is POLITICO.

They didn’t have to go to all that effort...

“I don’t take responsibility at all.” -Trump

What about Americans who hate the wall & want it gone? Let it erode into oblivion! trump has squandered millions on a stupid wall..millions that could have helped so many people in need. Trump is a bad man & it’s time to impeach & arrest & jail him. Wake up SpeakerPelosi

Says the guy who cannot remember the word “brain” while referencing how good it is. 25thAmendment

I love that he’s dumping on his most ardent supporters

So basically wasted tax payer dollar

He really has trouble with loyalty.

Listen to ToddlerTrump say, me, me,me. It’s all about me! Pathetic.

Such a narcissist

They just got a huge contract to build more. So it shouldn't have been built by them but they're going to build more?

Such a baby! 🍼🍼🍼🍼🍼

Building a wall makes us look bad tReason tRump

I thought he knew all about building, he was the best at building things, he was the best at negotiating the best contracts. Oh no, did he lie? /S fuckingwall trump borderwall

the wall looks like a trump hotel

Trump continues to Fail the American People

Watch out Contractors this his first shot across the bows for not paying you

Again, it's all about him, isn't it?

Does he own it by any chance? Corruption alert!

It would be so great not to have a narcissistic president who only sees things through the lens of himself.

Why is Trump so fat?

Trumps NEW border wall is 93 mi. long, 3 of which Trump admin. built, 90 rebuilt Obama wall NOT 500 + mi as Trump claims. Mexico was to pay for wall, PROMISES KEPT ? Supporters of Trumps cult are nothing but UNPATRIOTIC ENABLERS OF A CORRUPT REGIME in power thru RUSSIA!

Hahaha realDonaldTrump Surprise, you are the embarrassment.

High costs, sub-standard quality. It’s a trump trademark

PaulMiller1313 He gave that private business $1.7 billion as a reward for building a fence thats falling into the river

Hahahahaha. Really? The victim card again!

Perhaps it was the bit of wall Mexico paid for, or haven't they paid for any of it yet? It was a lovely hooligan chant in '16 wasn't it - 'Who's going to pay for the wall?' - perhaps it will be revived again for 2020.

As usual, blame someone else.

Wasting Tax payers money Trump Loves spending other people's Money. That's if he can't steal it first

Yes, because everything is about him. trumpthevictim

Trump is a defective President too!

Nothing was ever his fault. Incredible stat.

The whole thing is defective. It is easily defeated therefore useless. It’s a political stunt at a time when the Vice President is telling exhausted doctors and nurses to “reuse their PPE! They need that money. It’s disgraceful, immoral, and criminal.

Was it made in China like your stuff is?

Because EVERYTHING that’s “done” in this country is only to make him look bad. All about our big baby-in-chief, the sad victim.

Someone needs to tell the fragile POS that not everything is about him. In fact, almost nothing is.

Dear Leader was all for it earlier, as I recall....

And yet Trump's admin awarded the builder a grant.

Like many of the ventures that Trump was involved in, the wall is a fiasco that is going to cost a fortune, but Trump will not pay a penny.

Only a narcissist would believe a rusted wall was done to make him look bad. VoteTrumpOut2020

WE must investigate if the tRump family own the company that is building the wall or have shares in it. The orange man always does things for monetary advantage, more cunning than the Adam and Eve SNAKE.

Turning victimhood into an event horizon...nothing can escape it.

Do you expect anything less from realDonaldTrump than to kick his own supporters in the face? Maybr this will make his supporters realize that it really isn't about any vision for America, it just about him and always had been. Trump TrumpFail

The idiot and his minions. MAGA

Lol

Why would a company spend $42 million to make the president look bad when it's something he does everyday for free?

🙄

Trump you look bad already fool

Well you know, everything is about him.

And the covid 19 .virus washers a hoax to make him look bad,

The fence contractor was a crony pal of CrookedDonny who got government kickbacks. And if he gets caught and prosecuted? Donny will just pardon him, just like the rest of his swamp rats.

President Donald Trump has lobbied for the company to receive contracts on the US-Mexico Trump wall, to the DHS and promoted the company in an interview on Fox News with Sean Hannity. Jared Kushner has also endorsed the company.

You don’t need a section of wall for that!

Again blaming someone else. Pity party

You hired one of your donors to do the job so that you and he could get KICK BACKS! using cheap materials with subpar workmanship.

Yep, the whole ducking world is scheming against him, poor, poor baby.

Obviously if its already showing problems, it wasn't done right to begin with. Doesn't anyone at Politico have a fuc*ing brain? Was Trump responsible for it, NO. I thought Politico was a serious outfit. Wrong...

Trump always has an excuse

Babysitter KellyannePolls really needs to get ToddlerInChief realDonaldTrump a THERAPIST. He actually thinks the entire world revolves around him. It's hilarious! 😆

Now would you stay in a trump hotel

Wonder who got the 42 million, was that trumps kickback

We need the executive order to supply every State with supplies to mitigate the latest surge of Covid19. If he doesn't, States will need to globally reach out for the help!

Ill bet you every inch of that wall is controlled and the bidding process is watched by political appointees.......cant act surprised.

Can you imagine if your boss or financial advisor said that?

$42 million dollars for a section of a fucking wall but implementation of cdc guidelines to reopen schools is “to expensive”

Listen these are the rules in the dictatorship known as the USA: whatever the supreme leader Trump says is truth. Period. If he says 2+1=9870, it does. So course he’s right. The company should simply agree. Trump like Kim in North Korea, knows everything, created everything etc

This embarrasses him while more than 134,000 people have died from the coronavirus.

Degenerate J. Trump

People do not understand the Shedding process....🤦

Hahahahahahahaha, NO, U DO THAT ALL ON UR OWN! I don’t know how Melania STANDS UR TOUCH! Lets hope The PRENUP pays her HAZARD PAY 💰 SHE HAS EARNED It! Politico, I know, but he is a horrid man, & I can’t take it anymore! How can a potus lie to the PPL everyday & its ok Why?

42 million for junk. let it fall down. let people take the slats and make sheep pens.

IGWS*: BenedictDonald thinks a defective border wall was deliberate to make him look bad? Um, EVERYTHING he says or does easily achieves that goal. *IGWS = It goes without saying

That’s because a Trump Lamborghini is everyone else’s Yugo 😂🤣🤣

Libyan Petroleum Corporation: Russian Wagner mercenaries and Sudanese Janjaweed forces occupy oil sites and prevent the export of oil in agreement with the forces of Haftar and the United Arab Emirates

Please retweet and help remind SenKevinCramer that he introduced realDonaldTrump to the shadey company that built the tiny section of wall to purposely make BunkerBoy look weak. Maybe Kevin is making a play. Trump2020 SuperElite

At least the falling down border wall is closer to the *actual* border - the middle of the Rio Grande River. Trumps wall gives Mexico thousands of acres of US territory.

'Yeah...yeah, that's right, it made me look bad.'

There's always Rustoleum.

Poor pitiful trump !

Your buddy

Always the victim.

Tity baby. Never in American history has a president cried so much!!

He keeps whining.

The board members of the crap wall company are STEVE BANNON AND KRIS KOBACH...😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

That guy has an answer for everything.

Another deep state conspiracy to get Trump 🙄

Can we say narcissism

He chose a donor to build his wall.

No one needs to make him look bad. He’s doing a great job all by himself.

realDonaldTrump Guess it’s pretty bad when your own supporters sabotage you! 😂😂😂😂

They should build a cage for you and your Offspring TRUMP

Don’t need an ugly wall for that, donsky.

Chinese steel will do that.

Everything is done to make him look bad. As if his own actions don’t make him look bad enough.

Fortunately, that wasn’t difficult.

It's always about realDonaldTrump and no one else, isn't it?

More incompetence and waste

OMG, Donny, could you be any more paranoid? The whole world is not against you. OK, it is. It really is. But only because the world hates despots, dictators, and self-annointed kings.

TheOldOlaf

realDonaldTrump needs no help from anyone 'to make him look bad'. He does that well enough on his own. TrumpIsANationalDisgrace

They went to trump U?

realDonaldTrump the reason everything makes you look bad is because you are bad stopwhining

realDonaldTrump Stopwhining

It's like everything else he touches. It turns to crap.

So they only built 3 miles total, and those 3 miles are failing. Sounds like something that Trump did...

It’s so easy to make the Idiot in Chief look bad. This is just the most recent example.

kfo1958 Amazing isn't it how the man can take no responsibility for anything. A long way from 'the buck stops here.' Trump is a complete fuck up. No wonder his casinos went belly up. Can you imagine trying to run the casino with Trump as your boss?

Who gave this company the contract?

Donnie does an effective job of looking bad all on his own... he really doesn’t need any help 😏

He likes and is cheap .... welcome to hiring someone without experience in anything ... vote this November !

This man is so small and unprepared for the job of governing.... We have full blown healthcare crisis and this nitwit is looking at fencing... America... YOU ARE ON YOUR OWN....with no tools to fight this pandemic...

this is typical trump blame everything that goes wrong on everyone else, take credit for everything that is good whether he did it or not wait that’s a form of plagiarism

It's always all about him

Didn't he sign the check the government paid with?

THIS PARANOIA AND CONSPIRACY THEORIES IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY IS SO CAUGHT UP WITH THIS IGNORANCE!!!!!! THEGOPISTHEPROBLEM THEGOPISTHEPROBLEM THEGOPISTHEPROBLEM THEGOPISTHEPROBLEM THEGOPISTHEPROBLEM

Still hanging that same old drum. Drum must be exhausted. It's the brand paranoid, with the cymbals being self pity. Only tune they play.

trump acts like he looks bad

Trump will not hesitate to turn on loyal followers the moment their incompetence becomes undeniable. He will find some excuse to disown them and blame them for following his lead. Southern governors should be very worried for their political future.

I am sure those nutty Trump supporters who donated a total of millions appreciate Trump framing their effort that way. Yeah yeah , deep state ,Never trumpers , George soros backed wall builders trying to make him look bad

🤣🤣🤣🤣

The Trump administration’s split-screen coronavirus messageCongress needs to spend nearly half-a-trillion dollars on initiatives to fight the coronavirus if it hopes to minimize the damage done, a pair of economists estimate I'm sure we'll borrow it from China. Then Trump can pretend how bad they are for the US. Perhaps if they stopped the corporate welfare this time around. This won’t happen because we need to hand billions to the Catholic Church and Trump Family and Friends for PPP instead of small businesses.
