Building a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border was Donald Trump’s premier campaign promise, and he is running out of chances to keep it.
Trump has been president for nearly a year and a half, and has not yet won anywhere near the funding needed to build the wall along the 1,000 or so miles of border that he pledged to voters. Now, there are two Republican immigration bills in the House, each of which would provide around $25 billion for the wall, and Trump has blown them both off, saying he’d rather try again after November’s midterm elections.
