Alice Stewart: I Always Knew Mexico Was Not Going to Pay for Trump’s Wall

‘This president ran and won in large part due to his promise that we’re going to build a wall and Mexico will pay for it’

EXCERPT:

STEWART: "I would hope so, given the large percentage of Americans that do want some protections for DREAMers and want to make some progress on DACA. And if the President has yet another meeting as he did with Chuck and Nancy, then we can have this conversation about you give me some money for the wall, and we will make — I’ll make sure you have the votes to pass DACA. That is a good starting point. Now that Republicans no longer have control of the House, we’re going to have to start negotiating. We can’t just talk about making deals for DACA and the wall. We have to actually follow through. That is a good starting point. I’m glad to see this is back on the table. Because at the end of the day, this President ran and won in large part due to his promise that we’re going to build a wall and Mexico will pay for it. I always knew Mexico was not going to pay for it. But this is a good way for him to move forward on a very serious and important campaign."
