Did Trump actuality say that his wall be transparent so we could see bags of drugs being flung over?
Surely our CIC could not be that ill informed of how drugs get into this country? The quote was from a press interview on Air Force One, referring to the Mexico border wall and how we needed to be able to see when these heavy bags of drugs would be flung over the wall and possibly hit someone in the head on the American side.
Seems so. Check these out:

Sadly, there is no video of Trump actually saying it, but several reporters witnessed him doing so and are all reporting it.
DJT is a complete idiot. A transparent wall with solar panel on it. Makes as much sense as anything this insane person said previously.
I'm waiting to hear how the Trumpsters will explain this one! They probably think he "never said that", is my guess. Or "that's not what he meant".
How do you think that the drugs get across the border? Do you want them to continue to come across the border?
Why do people lock their vehicles and the living places, but want an unlocked border?
All the democrats, and some of the republicans in congress don't have a plan. They just want to dis whatever is Trump's plan. How does that help the country and the people?
Do you have a better plan?
I do have a better plan. Americans need to stop buying drugs. It's supply and demand.
The drugs come over on planes, drones, boats, shipping companies. They are not "flung over a wall".

Americans have never stopped buying drugs, that is why we lost the War on Drugs. Have you checked your facts on how drugs get into the country? Could you be mistaken?
Call the DEA and check. Just because we have always bought drugs doesn't mean that we have to keep doing it. The drug war will only be won with education and medical treatment. Not walls and wars. That has already failed as you say.

What is trump's plan? build a wall you say, with what labor force and make Mexico pay for? That is like building castles in the air. trump will not build a wall, Mexico will not pay for a wall, drug lords will bring drugs as usual and American's pay.
The biggest lie that 45 has told, and his fans believe in, is his promise that he is able to "lock" the doors to this country.
Even if you build a wall and lock it all around us, someone will break it down for the almighty dollar.
