In a move that has left neighbors seething, President Joe Biden has taken a page out of former President Trump’s book by building a wall around his beloved beach residence in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. While Trump’s famous “Build the wall” chant may not have come to fruition at the Mexican American border, Biden is making sure to secure his privacy with hefty stone pillars and white fencing to keep prying eyes away.
The president’s decision to shell out nearly half a million dollars on the wall has sparked outrage among Republicans, who are quick to point out the irony of Biden’s actions. Ohio Republican Representative Jim Jordan took to Twitter to voice his disbelief, questioning why walls are acceptable for Biden’s beach house but not for the southern border that was left unfinished by the previous administration.

Despite the controversy, construction on the security fence is well underway, with the project set to be completed by September 2023. The original contract price of $490,324 has seen a significant bump due to inflation, with taxpayers footing the bill for the president’s privacy measures. Turnstone Holdings, LCC, the company responsible for the construction, is set to receive additional funds to ensure that Biden and his family can enjoy the beach without any unwanted attention.


While some may criticize Biden’s wall as a waste of taxpayer money, local residents have expressed support for the president’s decision. According to Delaware resident Jenn Stone, safety should always be a top priority, especially for someone in Biden’s position. As the controversy swirls around the president’s beachside fortress, one thing is clear – Biden is not taking any chances when it comes to his security and privacy.

As the fence continues to rise along the shore, one can’t help but wonder if Biden’s wall will stand as a symbol of protection or a reminder of political divisiveness. Only time will tell if the president’s decision will pay off in the long run, but for now, the wall stands as a testament to the lengths one will go to ensure their safety and privacy in an increasingly uncertain world.
