Border wall

President Trump has suggested painting his border wall black so that it will be harder to climb. This is amazing, not the fact that he is going to paint 1,127 km (700 miles) of wall black, but that he is going to use actual science to achieve something.
Actually, he’s not going to paint it himself but some minimum wage person probably, unless they are already on the other side of the border after ICE had gotten them.
It is only necessary to paint the Mexican side as surely nobody would be escaping from his great country, so that side can stay white or grey but he will probably want it to look “big” and “beautiful”.
Is this just another silly distraction or will it happen? It sounds like something from Alice in Wonderland but unfortunately Alice has already been deported.
