“Wall is being built. You know we have the fake news, you know about that, were they -- a wall that's lying on the ground in a very important section, so we pick up the wall, bits and pieces. I mean, literally, it's gone and we build a brand new 30-foot steel and concrete wall and the fake media said, he didn't build the wall. That's just renovation. There was no wall. It's lying on the ground. People walk right over it. It's rotted rusted gone. We take it away, we put a brand new wall up, they give me no credit. You know why? Because they're fake news, that's why. We're building a lot of wall.”
