The "We Build the Wall" charity was just a front for a scam. $25 million in donations were made by people who believed that they were contributing to a real charity. Instead, the organizers of the group siphoned off funds for themselves and used them for hotel and credit card bills, jewelry, a golf cart and a luxury SUV. Four of the organizers of the scam took the fall, while Steve Bannon was pardoned by Trump for his part in the scheme. The wall was built with the funds provided by Americans who believed it would help deter illegal border crossings. Instead, they were ripped off. If for no other reason, the wall should be torn down because of the fraudulent use of the contributions that built it. It stands as a symbol of the grift and scams that characterize the Trump years.
