Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) suggested Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) could call a border barrier a “wangdoodle” to avoid calling it a “wall” if it helped them make a deal.
“Speaker Pelosi is an extraordinarily bright person. She knows that the walls we have right now are working, she knows that you can’t secure a 1,900-mile border without using barriers. I think she probably doesn’t want to use the word ‘wall.’ That’s ok, she can call it a wangdoodle for all I care,” Kennedy said Thursday on CNN.
The comment comes as bicameral members of a conference committee are seeking a deal to prevent another government shutdown.
