Trump to cut foreign aid for home countries of illegal immigrants
Washington Examiner ^ | May 23, 2018

Posted on 05/23/2018 12:20:25 PM PDT by deplorableindc

President Trump announced Wednesday that the U.S. will begin to deduct foreign aid from countries whose residents illegally enter the United States.

"Many of these countries we give tremendous amounts of aid to. Tens of millions of dollars. And we're working on a plan to deduct a lot of the aid," Trump said at an event in New York denouncing the Salvadoran gang MS-13.

"We're going to work out something where every time someone comes in from a certain country, we're going to deduct a rather large amount of money from what we give them in aid, if we give them aid at all," Trump said. "We may just not give them aid at all."

How much does it cost to incarcerate a prisoner - $60,000 per year (or more?)

That is the amount that should be deducted for each person - as a starting point.

Sometimes, I just love this guy! Make those lazy countries pay “child support”! Gives them incentive to improve their own economies. More jobs, taxes, and it goes up from there. Their people won’t have to run to survive. It costs a lot of money to hire a Coyote.

These countries will pay for border security whether they want to or not.

I had high hopes for him. Honestly, I don’t feel let down at all.

My anger towards Congress has pegged the meter on the right though.

Mexico was slated to get $88 million in foreign aid.

If Mexico is smart, they’ll be drawing up plans for a wall any moment now.

Mexico will eventually agree to pay for the wall and be happy to do so.

This is an excellent approach to go along with the wall being built. Glad to hear that Pres Trump is on the move in spite of all the foot dragging by our no borders, no Trump, elected congress critters.
