We Made Donald Trump An Infomercial For His Border Wall | All In | MSNBC In a curious blend of political satire and critique, MSNBC's segment "We Made Donald Trump An Infomercial For His Border Wall" takes a humorous approach to the border wall promises made during Donald Trump's presidency. The video offers a creative interpretation of Trump's campaign rhetoric, which often echoed like a continuous advertisement for the long-promised border wall, claiming it would be "big, beautiful, and paid for by Mexico." Key Highlights from the Video:
  • The segment illustrates how Trump repeatedly assured supporters that the wall would be constructed and that Mexico would cover the costs. This premise sets the stage for a parody infomercial format, highlighting the absurdity of these bold claims.
  • It features exaggerated descriptions of the "wall," emphasizing its promised height and grandeur, while bringing in comedic elements reminiscent of classic infomercials.
  • The format cleverly juxtaposes Trump's grandiose promises with the reality of funding issues and challenges in constructing such a barrier. The Infomercial Tone:
  • Throughout the video, there are humorous lines like, "this wall can be yours for the low low price of Mexico will pay for the wall," which encapsulates the skepticism many felt about the feasibility and sincerity of the promises.
  • The video wraps up with a disclaimer about the non-guaranteed aspects of the project, echoing the typical disclaimers found in real infomercials, such as risks and potential outcomes. Engagement with the Content: This entertaining piece is not just about laughs; it also forces viewers to confront the realities behind political promises and how they are often packaged for consumption in today’s media-driven environment. Given the significance of this topic in the context of American politics, it invites viewers to reflect on the implications of such messaging.
