Trump: ‘We’re Up To About 168 Miles of Wall’

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: "The United States in discussions last night with Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Russia, and dealing with OPEC nations, we are trying to get Mexico, as the expression goes, over the barrel. And Mexico is committing to do 100,000 fewer barrels. The President and I spoke last night, we have a great relationship, great friendship, they are helping us very much at the border. They have 27,000 soldiers, Mexican soldiers on our border right now, stopping people from coming into our country as our wall goes up. We are up to about 168 miles of wall. In speaking with the President, they have a limit. The OPEC nations have agreed to a different limit, a reduction of about 23 percent. So what I thought I would do, and I don’t know that it's going to be acceptable, we'll find out, the United States will help Mexico along and they will reimburse us some time at a later date when they are prepared to do so.”
