FLASHBACK: Democrats Supported and Paid for Border Wall on Mexican Border …With Guatemala!

The shocker is that Democrats have supported a wall on the Mexican border – with Guatemala. The Democrats in 2016 stated how proud they were to send more than $750 million to our southern friends for God knows what.  

A contingent of Congressmen and women, including Speaker Pelosi, visited with the Mexican President and stated [emphasis added] – …this last Congress, in December, we appropriated $750 [million] to help the Northern Triangle countries. 

Some are going to say to make sure it goes out as fast as possible, but it’s $750 million dollars to address the issues – the core issues that we have. 

In the past, we also have appropriated money to help Mexico secure its southern border with Guatemala. And again, I think, the message here is we have got to look at it as a regional perspective. 

We also have been to Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, even Costa Rica with the Cubanos that are coming in largely through Laredo. So what we’re doing is – we want to look at this as a regional approach, work with Mexico and Central America to address these security issues and migration issues.”
