President Trump directly threatened to “close the border” or “large sections of the border” by next week should Mexico fail to crackdown on the steady stream of migrants making their way towards the United States’ southern border.

“The DEMOCRATS have given us the weakest immigration laws anywhere in the World. Mexico has the strongest, & they make more than $100 Billion a year on the U.S. Therefore, CONGRESS MUST CHANGE OUR WEAK IMMIGRATION LAWS NOW, & Mexico must stop illegals from entering the U.S. through their country and our Southern Border. Mexico has for many years made a fortune off of the U.S., far greater than Border Costs. If Mexico doesn’t immediately stop ALL illegal immigration coming into the United States through our Southern Border, I will be CLOSING the Border, or large sections of the Border, next week. This would be so easy for Mexico to do, but they just take our money and ‘talk.’ Besides, we lose so much money with them, especially when you add in drug trafficking etc.), that the Border closing would be a good thing!” posted the President on social media.

The President’s pledge comes weeks after he declared a “national emergency” at the US-Mexico border; bypassing Congress to provide funding for his long-promised border wall.
