Fox News ^ | 18-Jan-2019 | Alex Pappas

President Trump’s re-election campaign said Friday it'll send faux red bricks to the offices of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer until Democrats agree to fund a border wall.

To raise money for the 2020 race, the Trump campaign is asking donors to chip in $20.20 for each fake brick, which will be sent to the Democratic congressional leaders amid the fight that underlies the extended partial government shutdown.

Parscale said the bricks will include facts about “the crime, drugs, and human trafficking that result from open borders.”

The Dems will spin this to backfire against the Trump supporters. The media and Dems will roar that it is a cheap political stunt. I’d rather Trump just hold fast and keep the govt. shutdown going until the Dems cave if ever/never, then so be it.

The proposed donation of $20.20 is crafty.

I guess I misread that as throw the bricks at the heads of Pelosi and Schumer. Unconscious hostility, I guess. Sorry.

So what?
I say calling CNN,MSNBC and the NYT “news” sources is a cheap political stunt for the propaganda arm of the Dems and socialists.

If they can be fake then we can send bricks.

Didn’t we send actual bricks to DC a few years ago?

Thanks! I will do that. This is so much fun. I love to see the liberals flummoxed. They simply don’t know how to deal with Trump.

I had to read that 3 times before I was sure they weren’t sending the $20.20 to the Democrats. sheesh

One could argue we send bricks to DC every time we’ve voted for the last several cycles.

And? They try to turn everything he does into a cheap political stunt.

I think it's a brilliant idea and I love it.

Let the left scream all they want to because they never seem to shut the hell up about our great President.

I’m just saying I hope this isn’t just a stunt to jab at the Dems, but then Trump cave and call an Emergency to try to build the wall. Just keep the damned thing shut down until the Dems cave. Trump has the leverage on this, it’s not time to give up.
