Just heard on news that the President is walking back his threat to close the border.
The invasion continues, I guess.
I read the WH Twitter yesterday and another place, Trump saying he’ll give MX a chance to arrest/take away the invaders from their side. If they don’t do it, border closing. Some TX mayor - El Paso (he hates Trump!) claims that closing the border will wreck his economy, cause economic hardship.
Of course closing the border will cause economic hardship. But keeping it open with invaders pouring in like the Niagra Falls is not only tremendous economic hardship but murder, rape and drug crime hardship!
The Crazed and Dishonest Washington Post again purposely got it wrong. Mexico, for the first time in decades, is meaningfully apprehending illegals at THEIR Southern Border, before the long march up to the U.S. This is great and the way it should be. The big flow will stop.......— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 5, 2019
....However, if for any reason Mexico stops apprehending and bringing the illegals back to where they came from, the U.S. will be forced to Tariff at 25% all cars made in Mexico and shipped over the Border to us. If that doesnt work, which it will, I will close the Border.......— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 5, 2019
....This will supersede USMCA. Likewise I am looking at an economic penalty for the 500 Billion Dollars in illegal DRUGS that are shipped and smuggled through Mexico and across our Southern Border.

Heading to the Southern Border to show a section of the new Wall being built! Leaving now!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 5, 2019
