To paraphrase The Rolling Stones, “I want to build a wall and I want it painted black.”
Newsweek believes they have found a new line of attack against the southern border wall. Painting it means less of the wall be built. Here
But there’s a perfectly good reason to paint it black
Texas Tribune
While Trump has insisted that the barriers be painted, the cost of painting them will reduce the length of the fence the government will be able to build. According to the internal analysis, painting or coating 175 miles of barriers “will add between $70 million and $133 million in cost,” trimming the amount of fencing the Army Corps will be able to install by four to seven miles.
In June, teams of U.S. soldiers painted a one-mile section of fence in Calexico, California, at a cost of $1 million. The coating, known as “matte black” or “flat black,” absorbs heat, making the fence hot to the touch, more slippery and therefore tougher to climb, according to border agents. More
I mean, what good is a wall if it doesn’t work as intended ? – Dr. Tar
Since when has any leftist been concerned that not enough wall will be built?
Equip the gang members with Krylon and let them paint it.
Maybe paint it with that Novichok stuff the Russians use.
Newsweak?
I’m sorry, who?
The immigrants will have a way to cook their tortilla’s so Trump’s actually being a humanitarian. Strap a slab of meat to it and you have fajitas.
Land mines will keep them out too.
Semi-gloss is the way to go, even more reflective in a blinding way for the wall and I believe more slippery that flat.
Now that said? “Take the Land” what the fuck is that about?? Our POTUS said that?? I don’t like that type of ‘joking’ around.
BTW Jagger, another one who can eff off.
just hire a couple of mexicans, hook them up with a paint sprayer, and let em go. gotta be cheaper than $1,000,000.
I like white so much better.

“Equip the gang members with Krylon and let them paint it.”
Don’t worry, they will bring their own paint. You can count on it.
Paint a tunnel on it, ala Wile E. Coyoote:

Electrify the Border Wall. Hundreds of volts will discourage climbers amd “campers”. Illegals plan to cover the lower part of the wall with graffiti anyway. Don’t let them get the chance.
The little children may gather round it at night, grateful for the heat in the cold evenings as they sing songs from distant climes.
Who needs paint?!
Use an irrigation-type sprinkler system
to spray WD-40 on the posts on regular intervals.
Call it Mexican Pig Wrestlin’….
Allow US citizens that have the lawful right to carry to be deputized for the purpose of enforcing the Castle Doctrine on our border. It wouldn’t take but a couple days and there would be no more wall climbers. How many volunteer, part time deputy’s do you think we would get?
Black always goes with anything.
Paint it white with Christian Crosses to show we are a white Christian country.
