The president said Tuesday that the border wall would pay for itself by stopping drugs and illegal immigrants from entering the nation, and urged lawmakers to “get it done.”

“Could somebody please explain to the Democrats (we need their votes) that our Country losses 250 Billion Dollars a year on illegal immigration, not including the terrible drug flow. Top Border Security, including a Wall, is $25 Billion. Pays for itself in two months. Get it done!” Trump tweeted Tuesday.
