Trump Points to ‘Wall’ Built Around Obama’s Home During Fight for Border Wall Funding

President Trump pointed to the wall former President Obama built around his Washington D.C., home as a reason Congress should fund his barrier on the southern border.

The former president and his wife, Michelle, bought the 8,200-square-foot mansion for $8.1 million in 2017, according to reports.

The house is in the Kalorama section of Washington, an exclusive enclave for diplomats, lobbyists and politicians, including Trump’s daughter Ivanka and her husband Jared, as well as Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos.

The Obamas bought the house after leasing it when Obama left office in 2016. . .

The president wants $5 billion for the barrier, but Democrats are offering only $1.6 billion for border security — and nothing for a wall. (Read more from “Trump Points to ‘Wall’ Built Around Obama’s Home During Fight for Border Wall Funding” HERE)
