President Donald Trump threatened to close the southern border and said Mexico “is doing nothing” to curb the flow of illegal immigrants.
Trump’s comments came in a Thursday tweet.
The president wrote: “Mexico is doing NOTHING to help stop the flow of illegal immigrants to our Country. They are all talk and no action. Likewise, Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador have taken our money for years, and do Nothing. The Dems don’t care, such BAD laws. May close the Southern Border!”
The Washington Post noted Trump’s remarks came a day after Kevin McAleenan, commissioner of Customs and Border Protection, said U.S. immigration enforcement along the border with Mexico is at “the breaking point.”
