C11-4
Trump has recently signed a document stating his full support of building the wall along the border of Mexico. He has ordered homeland security and others assisting with the construction of this massive wall to begin immediately, despite having security in who is paying for it. Trump has gone public with his negotiations, beginning soon, with Mexico to have the country pay for the building of this wall. Nothing is set in stone as far as who will be paying for this wall, yet the construction is approaching, if not already being done. This wall will stretch along 1,900 miles to separate Mexico from the U.S. It is not yet clear where the money for this wall is coming from, but Congress would have to approve any additional funding for the wall to be built. Trump estimates the construction of the wall to cost about 10million dollars. Trump is also ramping up the deportation of undocumented immigrants as we speak. He has also threatened to reduce funding to places who refuse to turn over illegal immigrants. A meeting occurred with the government leaders of Mexico stating that the Mexican governments understands it is America's right to build a wall, even if Mexico does not approve or like it. The aspect that has challenged Mexico's leaders to comply is their disbelief of Trump trying to make their country pay for a wall that Mexico does not even want there.
