The Wall

So we all know Trump is planning on building a wall between the US and Mexico border.  I even joked about it in a previous post (see joking with the parents).

I was watching Arrested Development the other night.  Definitely one of the best shows they took off the air, scoring a solid 89% on Metacritic and an 83% on Rotten Tomatoes.  And of course this is in my opinion, if you like comedy you need to watch this show.  As I tell all people about this show, they build up the jokes in the beginning so the end is hilarious.  They also build up jokes throughout the series that lend a hand to some of the hilarity in later seasons.  You can't jump in the middle of a show and miss half of what they built up because then you won't know what they're joking about.

Anyway, back to a theory I have.  Slight spoilers, nothing serious if you want to continue reading.  In Season 4, Episode 2 George Bluth Sr. steals plans from a competitor (they are property developers) for what he thinks is a monument dedicated to George W. Bush.  It's revealed later that his wife Lucille originally had the idea and it actually a wall, not a monument, that is to be built on the border between California and Mexico to prevent illegals from entering the US.

So, where did Trump come up with his idea?  Maybe someone on his team saw the show (they do have lives outside their campaign, I think) and shot the idea to The Donald?  Who knows, but now you'll be wondering the same thing (especially if the wall is built).
