Donald Trump loves the ceremonial parts of his job, writes Steve Chapman, and his trip to California to inspect prototypes for a border wall was pure theater. He got to project toughness, point to something tangible, make big promises, and take credit—without actually accomplishing anything. He’s not a president; he’s a performance artist.
Of all his campaign pledges, none was more appealing to those at his rallies than the border wall. And as Chapman observes, none was more harebrained.
