Unsound Barrier: Dem Shri Thanedar’s X Post Shows He Doesn’t Get the ‘Ins and Outs’ of Border Walls

Bewigged Rep. Shri Thanedar thought he zinged House Republicans on Wednesday. The Republican X account pointed out that every communist country erects walls. In response, the diminutive Democrat responded with a pic of President Donald Trump walking along our nation’s southern border wall. Thanedar’s failed zing only proved what a dingbat he is. Apparently, he doesn’t understand that walls can serve two purposes.

Dumbest post of the day goes to a Democrat. Your streak is unparalleled.

This is by far one of the funniest tweets possible, he thinks people in the US are desperate to get into Mexico.

The Democrats have a deep dumb bench. We’re sure one of them will top this sooner than later.

Posters were quick to educate Thanedar that America is not communist and we have built a wall for a different purpose.

You making a post of this wall, which was obviously built to keep people out, is the epitome of why you are a failed candidate.

Yeah that’s a wall to keep people out. What’s your point?

Is he complaining that the wall is serving the wrong purpose?

Capitalists build walls to keep communists out. Communists build walls to keep communists in

Slow down; there are Democrats present.

Many of us are old enough to remember President Ronald Reagan saying "Tear down this wall." He was talking to his political counterpart in the communist Soviet Union. Why? They were using a wall to hold people captive.

No. The Soviet Union required exit visas for any departure, which were rarely granted except in limited cases like ethnic family reunification under external pressure. Unauthorized exit was illegal and often treated as treason. Restrictions held until a 1991 law just before the USSR collapsed. The Iron Curtain and Berlin Wall existed to prevent people from leaving.

Is this satire? You do realize he’s referring to communist countries trapping their own people like North Korea right. Trump wall is to keep 3rd worlders out.

Nobody’s crossing the border into North Korea bud. You can sit this out once until you can prove iq over 90.

Once again they are pretending not to understand, thus making discourse impossible.

The 10,000 libtards who liked the post I mean, the congressman really is that retarded.

We don’t think Thanedar is kidding. He’s really this stupid.

Commenters suggest that Thanedar may be suffering from a mental disability. His tight hairpiece is the likely culprit.

Reading comprehension was never his strong suit. Poor guy's brain is all smooshed up against his tiny, doll-like skull.

This has to be one of the most mind boggling posts I’ve seen. There are either disabilities involved or just plain stupidity. This dude was elected to be in office??
— Dude (@thedude1904) September 17, 2026

Shouldn't you be packing your office about now?

Thanedar came up short in a recent Democrat primary. His last day in office is January 3, 2027. No wall will prevent him from leaving.

Editor’s Note: Thanks to President Trump, illegal immigration into our great country has virtually stopped. Despite the radical left's lies, new legislation wasn't needed to secure our border, just a new president.
