Mexican no longer has skin in the game with the catch and release program.

President Donald Trump’s fury over a border wall continues to flare as he blames Mexico for failing to stop caravans from marching into the U.S.
‘Mexico is doing NOTHING to stop the Caravan which is now fully formed and heading to the United States,’ he tweeted Saturday morning.
‘We stopped the last two – many are still in Mexico but can’t get through our Wall, but it takes a lot of Border Agents if there is no Wall. Not easy!’ he added.
His tweet comes as the partial government shutdown enters its 29th day and as he prepares to deliver a speech Saturday afternoon rallying yet again for his controversial border wall that Democrats have continuously rejected.
On Saturday morning he briefly spoke to reporters foreshadowing his government shutdown remarks scheduled for 3pm EST where he’ll fight for his border wall with the hopes that Democrats will meet him halfway.
‘As you know the caravans are coming up, they have a big one coming up now. I’m disappointed that Mexico is not stopping them. I mean, Mexico seems unfortunately powerless to stop them,’ he said.
‘If you had a wall, we wouldn’t have this problem. The walls we fixed and built hold beautifully, but we have a lot of open areas, and it is too bad,’ he added.
Trump claimed that previous caravans were successfully stopped in Mexico and are now in Tujuana.
‘I don’t know what they’re doing there, but they’re not in our country, that I can tell you,’ he said, urging reporters to tune into his speech.
‘I hope that speaker Pelosi can come along and realize what everybody knows, no matter who it is, they know that walls work and we need walls. And whether it is personal or not, it is not personal for me,’ he said, claiming the Speaker of the House is ‘controlled by the radical left’.
