President Donald Trump insisted Monday that he hasn't ruled out concrete slabs as elements of the border 'wall' he promised while he ran for president.
'An all concrete Wall was NEVER ABANDONED, as has been reported by the media,' the president insisted in a morning tweet on the last day of 2018.
'Some areas will be all concrete but the experts at Border Patrol prefer a Wall that is see through (thereby making it possible to see what is happening on both sides). Makes sense to me!'
He also reminded members of Congress that the fate of his border barrier hangs in the balance as the last 72 hours of the legislative session tick away.
'I campaigned on Border Security, which you cannot have without a strong and powerful Wall. Our Southern Border has long been an “Open Wound,” where drugs, criminals (including human traffickers) and illegals would pour into our Country. Dems should get back here an [sic] fix now!' he tweeted.
President Donald Trump pushed back against outgoing White House Chief of Staff John Kelly on Monday, insisting he's never completely abandoned the idea of building sections of concrete wall along the U.S.-Mexico border
The president tweeted that concrete slabs could be one part of a hybrid system of different kinds of barriers

Outgoing White House Chief of Staff John Kelly told the Los Angeles Times in an interview published Sunday that 'early on in the administration' the president and his advisers gave up onthe idea of a solid wall on the U.S.-Mexico border.
'The president still says "wall" – oftentimes frankly he’ll say "barrier" or "fencing," now he’s tended toward steel slats,' Kelly said.
'But we left a solid concrete wall early on in the administration, when we asked people what they needed and where they needed it.'
White House counselor Kellyanne Conway is calling the apparent contradiction 'a silly semantic argument.'
'There may be a wall in some places, there may be steel slats, there may be technological enhancements,' she said on 'Fox News Sunday.'
'But only saying "wall or no wall" is being very disingenuous and turning a complete blind eye to what is a crisis at the border.'
The president also jabbed congressional Democrats for holding up his wall funding and running out the clock until noon Thursday when they take over the House of Representatives

The president began his politically explosive quest to block drug traffickers and illegal immigrants from traveling north into the U.S. by describing a 'fence' early in 2015.
That later changed to a 'wall' during campaign rallies. But as president, he has embraced the idea of see-through metal barriers that can allow U.S. Border Patrol agents to keep an eye on the other side.
In a January 2015 interview in Des Moines, Iowa, an optimistic Trump described his gfencing plan as a lark compared to the steel and stone skyscrapers he was accustomed to erecting.
'The fence would be done at a very reasonable cost, relative to the value, and nobody would be able to penetrate that fence,' he said then.
Minutes later onstage the future president said: 'It has to be a beauty. Who can build better than Trump? I've built lots of buildings. Fences are easy – believe me.'
'If I run and if I win, I would certainly start by building a very, very powerful one.'

Link hienalouca.com Interesting to note Looking for an investor or sponsor for a project to grow dinosaurs and relict plants. Requires the sum of investments from 400000$ to 900000$. The exact amount can not say because there are many nuances. It will be necessary to build a small laboratory with certain parameters. To all interested persons please write on an email angocman@gmail.com . It is the scientific project and I do not know whether it is possible to earn on it. The probability of success of the project is approximately 60%. That will be very interesting.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
