Letter: That’s not the promise he made
(Moises Castillo | AP file photo) Honduran asylum seekers are taken into custody by U.S. Border Patrol agents after the group crossed the U.S. border wall into San Diego, Calif., in this view from Tijuana, Mexico, in December 2018.
The article on the “Supreme Court rules that Trump can use Pentagon funds for border wall” in Saturday’s paper states this decision lets, “Trump make progress on 2016 campaign promise.”
Really?
As I recall his election campaign, Donald Trump said Mexico was going to build the wall, not the America taxpayer.
