Alex Hirsch (@_AlexHirsch) found an eerily relevant 1958 episode of a television western, about a Mr. Trump convincing folks to build a wall to keep them safe.

From that thread:

"I've had this theory that time travellers end up writing for Hollywood cause no one would believe them" -- Sara's mouse (@surrealyo)

"Someone has a time machine and is not using it to its fullest ability." -- Adam D. Jaspering (@jaspers47)

"someone needs to research what else this screenwriter wrote - it might be instructive." -- Tammy Rainey (@Tammy_Beth)

And Snopes has a link to the whole episode on YouTube.

(It's plausible that the script was inspired by Trump's father, with folks noting that Woody Guthrie's song about him came out eight years earlier.)
