A series of tweets have surfaced regarding President Trump's border security measures, with claims from a Democratic representative that the President's plans include extreme measures such as 'alligator moats', spikes, an electrified fence, and bombing the cartels. President Trump responded to these claims, stating that while he is tough on border security, he is not considering measures as severe as those reported by the press, which he deems as 'Fake News'. However, Trump also made a remark that seemed to entertain the idea, saying 'we're looking into it - thanks for the idea'. The conversation has sparked a mix of criticism and support, with some commentators mocking the idea or showing enthusiasm for a militarized border featuring such unconventional defenses, including 'lasers on the alligators'.
Is this Democrat Congressman actually trying to tell us President Trump's plan for the border is a bad thing... Moats with alligators, bombing the cartels, and electric fences? Did he forget the lasers on the alligators? https://t.co/G37McMxCDL
All I want is a militarized Southern border with an alligator moat. Please, God!

"Now the press is trying to sell the fact that I wanted a Moat stuffed with alligators and snakes, with an electrified fence and sharp spikes on top, at our Southern Border. I may be tough on Border Security, but not that tough. The press has gone Crazy. Fake News!" --DJT https://t.co/R5bUIj1Z0R
