What if Mexico pays for it? Think tariffs. ;)

1000 foot coaster sounds out of the realm of possibility, but only for a stand alone coaster. Something on the Strat, for example, could do it. Remember that one they were going to build in Orlando? It wasn't designed to go straight down, it swoops around the structure a bit at a time.

Mexico spent all their money on the border wall, none left for the 1000 footer.

But hear me out: a 1000-foot coaster that is ALSO a wall that Mexico pays for.

"On day one, I will build the worlds tallest, 1000-foot tall roller coaster- we love roller coasters, yes we do... WE LOVE THEM! And holding up that roller coaster will be a huge wall. And Mexico will pay for it!"

In trying to mold a joke around how hard it would be for a migrant mother with a child in arm, to scale a 1000-foot-tall wall holding up a roller coaster track. And then I realized how scary the very-near future is going to be for our nonnative brothers and sisters.

Is mocking Trump going to be any fun when he gets in office?

The legal or illegal nonnative brothers and sisters?

Probably just end up being illegal.

The point is that they are our brothers and sisters- human beings that deserve empathy and respect.

It's scary that history might be repeating itself. Every step closer concerns me.

It should have never gotten this close, but here we are.

Not really worth a news item, because we all knew it was nonsense in the first place, but there's officially no thousand-footer off I-Drive.
