Why not just equip the US military with rocks and slings then? Probably would save us a hell of a lot of $$ in the defense budget. Maybe even enough for a wall!

Trump fails basic human history again

Maybe this is trump laying the foundation for a Wheel Force, kinda like the space force but for wheels.
Should build the wall out of discarded tires.
I think they tried that a few days ago

I mean, for the normal person, the wall and the wheel were both invented "a long ass time ago".
Shit delete this before he gets any ideas
I will not let you refer to the good people of Mexico in that manner
Montezuma is gonna be super mad
(though he's always kinda mad)

I think a few people in this thread almost got it right, but what he was doing was trying to attack people who have been rightfully attacking the wall for being an antiquated method of dealing with issues like this. He's saying something like "People who think walls are outdated and useless are stupid. See? We still use wheels and they are old!"

That happened. Can you imagine the look on the Secret Service agent's face when Trump said "do they all have wheels? Oh I thought that was medieval?" What a fucking rambling moron.
Yup. I don't think most people even know the birth date of our most important invention: farming, the thing that actually birthed civilization (it was 12,500 years ago). It's fundamental to everything about our way of life now... but nobody knows that unless they studied anthropology or whatever.
keep in mind, though, that one of the right's favorite ways to attack net neutrality is to claim that it's based off of really old principles. And remember -- if something is old, it HAS to be bad.
Old things are always bad, but also always good. Let's build the wall and be heroes.
I mean, that would involve him actually having done something he said he did.
Conservatives saying that old things are bad seems pretty off to me! :D

It was literally their favorite go to line about net neutrality: "19th century! 1900's!!"
Of course, they'd make these claims, then defer to the "founding fathers" moments later on other issues, so they're consistently hypocrites at least.

I believe this is pretty much the best explanation of what he's trying to say

Interesting! I think I had missed all of that at the time. And, yeah, that's definitely - if not hypocritical - an odd line of attack.
This lie is minor but it also illustrates Trump's relationship with reality.
He does not have one.
He does not have one.
the most absolutely insane thing of it all? Net Neutrality is based off of Right to Use policy... which was a republican invention. In fact, it's quintessentially republican. It was the compromise they formed to allow for natural monopolies. It's literally some of their most basic ideology in practice.
These policies were invented to counter the fear of nationalised telephone lines, nationalized railroads, etc.
Not enough people are going to appreciate this post.I can't WAIT until Trump discovers fire.
To be fair, most of his supporters have at least one broken down car on their front lawn so it's probably 50/50 at best if they have wheels.
Huh, I didn't know that either. Thanks for all the info today! It's been interesting.
My takeaway here is he's hit the point where the Secret Service are the only ones still willing to humor his horseshit in person.
Like he probably tried to harass some random-passerby about wheels and got told to eat a dick.

How is that basic human history ?? I wouldn't known that tbh ,but I also wouldn't talk out of my ass without knowing facts.
