The newly elected President of the United States is putting his foot firmly on the ground, albeit American ground and not Mexican.

He assured millions of hardworking Americans that he would keep them safe and “keep drug fueled mules, dealers, rapists, and criminals out of America by building a Southern border wall to Mexico”.

President Trump said right throughout his campaign that Mexico will definitely pay for the wall as there’s a $60 billion deficit in trade between the States and Mexico.

The Mexican President, Enrique Peña Nieto said Mexico won’t pay for the wall.

President Trump tweeted today that if the Mexican President doesn’t agree to paying for the wall, then a scheduled meeting with him shouldn’t go ahead.

A panicked Mexican President released a video saying they won’t pay and he won’t go to the meeting.

Who’ll win the standoff? Well, who’d bet against Donald Trump at this stage.
