WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump threatened Friday to close the U. S. border with Mexico if Democrats continue to oppose funding for his proposed wall, but he did not spell out how he would carry out such a policy or what it would mean.
«We will be forced to close the Southern Border entirely if the Obstructionist Democrats do not give us the money to finish the Wall & also change the ridiculous immigration laws that our Country is saddled with,» Trump tweeted.
Trump has made the threat before but has not offered details. Illegal crossings are at the heart of his dispute with congressional Democrats over funding for a proposed all along the U. S.-Mexico border.
It’s also uncertain how closing the border would affect migration.
