In which Duncan Hunter self owns hard…

This is just too, too perfect. Not one to be out-stunted by his ridiculous Republican colleagues pretending to watch the wall being built at the border (they weren’t and it wasn’t) indicted Rep. Duncan Hunter, a California Republican, staged his own border fiasco. He staged his own “illegal” border crossing to show just how easy it was.

Except it wasn’t a border crossing, because he can’t cross the border. He’s been indicted for campaign finance violations and the terms of his parole mean he can’t leave the country. So when Hunter “eased himself over a railing in the video before proclaiming, ‘That’s how easy it is to cross the border in Yuma, Arizona,” he was actually stepping over a vehicle barrier that’s about 100 feet away from the actual border. The actual border at Yuma is the Colorado River.
