At his first State of the Union speech, President Trump falls back on his encyclopedic knowledge of the Bible to plead the case for his Mexican border barrier.
“Remember the Garden of Eden? Remember that place? Terrific place. Terrific. Place.
God told Adam, he said, ‘Adam you have to build a wall around Eden. You have to build it. Big wall. All around Eden. Huge.’
But Adam was low energy. Very low energy. God said, ‘build it’, he didn’t build it. Low energy, remember.
So a snake gets into Eden. It’s a rapist snake. I’m not saying all snakes are rapists, some of them, I’m sure are decent snakes. But this one. Rapist for sure, trust me.
So no wall, rapist snake gets in. And Eve, she’s bleeding from her wherever, and snakes are attracted. I would know, believe me, snakes are attracted.
And guess what? No fig leaf. Eve has no fig leaf, and the snake takes advantage. So God sees what’s going on and Adam and Eve are evicted so fast it would make your spin. So fast.
They’re out, the snake is in and right away it takes Adam’s job. And his rib. Boom! Job taken. No more job, no rib.
We need that wall, folks, we need it. Mexico says they’re not going to pay for it. They are, believe me. They’re gonna pay for it.”
