See-through Mexico wall

Trump wants transparency. He said so while travelling on Air Force One to a bunch of White House press people. Well, he was actually talking about The Wall at the time, the one he hopes to build along the Mexican border. We haven't heard much about the wall since Trump took office. Mostly because he has had other things on his mind, like that pesky Russia thing which he still can't shake off even though Putin, his new best mate, promised him he had NOTHING to do with "meddling" in the US presidential election. "Niet nadoyedlivyy (no meddling)!" Or something like that. So, back to the wall. Trump has said he wanted Mexico to pay for the wall. But the Mexican president said:"Ni habler (no way)!" The Mexican probably added: "No entrometas (do not meddle)." So then Trump said he was going to install solar panels along the border wall which would help to generate enough power to pay for the construction of the wall. Pretty good idea, although very costly and everyone laughed anyway, except for the biggest solar panel companies of course. Now on board Air Force One to Paris, Trump said the wall had to be transparent. Why? Because, he said, there would be Mexican drug traffickers on the other side of the wall slinging over bags of the stuff weighing 60 pounds, and if the wall was made of bricks, innocent passers-by might be hit on the head, unaware that a bag of dope was airborne and about to land on his or her cranium. Good thinking and very caring, Donald. So we have a wall made of toughened glass with solar panels on top. It's beginning to take shape. But I guess the response of the drug cartels will be: "Vamos a tirar las drogas por la noche y soplar un silbato (we'll throw the drugs at night and blow a whistle." So what do you say about that, Trump? Any other ideas? The answer is obvious. Ask a drug baron to demonstrate how high he can throw a bag of drugs and then build the wall 20ft higher. Trump would then be able to say to the druggies. "You can go blow a whistle (puedes soplar un silbato)." The transparency idea does have its merits. If you put searchlights along the border, at night the thousands of late-shift border guards can then spot who is throwing the 60 pound bags, and can inform the Mexican authorities. But the way things are going between Mexico and Trumpland, the guys in charge on the other side of the border may well reply: "Salta a correr (go take a running jump)". So, in reality, I'm not sure this wall is ever going to take shape. One of those big promises that sounded good but is a bit impractical. Still, it's excellent news that Trump is keen on transparency.
