Build it and they will buy? Tiny cars.

Now the President has an idea that folks may want. A tiny car. You see them in Europe and Asia. His goal? President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that he would loosen regulations to permit the production of smaller, more compact cars in the U.S. Trump believes the compact cars would prove more fuel-efficient and affordable than those already available on the market, and Trump said manufacturing these domestically would allow more households to be able to afford a new vehicle.

I had a family member who had one of these.

How did that work out?

Build it so they won’t come. The wall.

We’re not hearing much, but in places like Barry M. Goldwater Range in Arizona, the wall is being built.

The range borders Mexico, the Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge, the Sonoran Desert National Monument, and the Tohono Oʼodham Nation. It’s primarily used for air-to-ground bombing practice by roughly 20 squadrons from the U.S. Air Force, Marine Corps and Navy. Pilots who use the range are stationed at Davis–Monthan Air Force Base, Luke Air Force Base, Tucson Air National Guard Base and Marine Corps Air Station Yuma. Air National Guard from multiple states also train there.

The steel panel wall structure is nearly identical to what has been built in Texas by the first and current Trump administration, The Center Square has reported.
