President Trump has long called migration a security crisis, but in recent weeks he has also referred to the situation along the southern border as a humanitarian crisis.

As he ended the government shutdown in a televised speech on Jan. 25, Trump reiterated his claim that a border wall between the United States and Mexico would save the lives of Central American migrants, many of whom are women and children.

“Walls work,” he said. “They save good people from attempting a very dangerous journey from other countries.”

The conversation has been a popular topic to talk about it. Many people have different opinions Eastside student Evestvan says “the wall is a dumb idea because mexico is not gonna pay for it”

Trump has been wanting to build this wall for a while now but who knows if we will actually get to build this wall.
