Our Quote of the Day comes from writer/historian Jon Meacham on a new book that says Trump wanted moats with snakes and alligators at the border to keep people out of the U.S.:
“Why is it we are building walls and moats at the border, but we can’t put up a wall around our own sovereign elections? I think that’s a question that should be asked.”
