Okayyyy.

As the current government shutdown over border wall funding is poised to become the longest in history, President Donald Trump demanded Democrats in Congress allocate the $5 billion for a wall at the southern border—a wall which is proven to be ineffective and which the majority of the American public doesn't want.

Semantics have played a large part in the ongoing impasse, with comparisons like "fence vs wall" and "concrete vs steel slats." However, Trump threw an interesting option for the wall's title in the ring earlier this afternoon.


Watch below:

The President said:

"I ask the Democrats to vote for money for the wall, the barrier, whatever you want to call, it's okay with me. They can name it whatever—they can name it 'peaches,' I don't care what they name it."

The comments indicated an increasing desperation on the side of Trump and Republicans.

With the latest absurd comment, everyone's making a similar joke.

Some joked that "Peaches" was a person.

Others got a bit more creative.

It reminded many of the song "Peaches" by—funnily enough—Presidents of the United States of America. They soon began citing the lyrics, and they're oddly fitting.

But jokes aside, the long-held fear by some that Trump is mentally unstable grew a little deeper.

As the shutdown continues to forge on and federal employees continue to work without pay, Trump's callous rhetoric is anything but peachy-keen.

A 'Fake Egg' Prank Targeting Kids Is Trending On TikTok—But Not Everyone Thinks It's Funny

In a recent TikTok trend, people are presenting young children with "fake eggs" and crushing the egg in their hands to show that the eggs are fake.

In order for this trend to work, the person has to poke a hole into each end of the egg to drain it of its yolk and let the shell dry, so it becomes more brittle and easy to crush, making the prank more believable.

Guy Sparks Debate After Abandoning Girlfriend In Economy While He Booked Himself A First Class Seat On Flight

It's really hard to watch while someone is clearly not being treated well enough by their partner, and instead of accepting the reality check for what it is, they spend their time digging their heels in deeper and defending their partner's honor.

That was certainly true for TikToker Nicole Vawter, or @nicmarievee, anyway, when fellow TikTokers called her partner out on selfishly booking himself a first class seat while his long-time girlfriend sat back in economy.
