But then it turned political. . .

Presumably the ducklings will be separated from the mother once they cross the fence.

update: the mama duck has been deported and the ducklings are currently in a camp in the desert reciting the pledge of allegiance under threat of violence https://t.co/hBBnvq0JfQ

We know how this story ends. They are going to toss the mama duck back over the fence, keep the babies and cage them… #TrumpStories. #Trumpism #ImpeachmentHearingsNow https://t.co/FEsXvtZzVB
