Trump, Mexico, and El Salvador

Trump said that the Mexican government needed to do more to stop "violent illegal immigrants from El Salvador from entering the United States". He again refers to his long proposed wall but he keeps saying that Mexico needed to pay for the wall. Trump posted on twitter saying that U.S. law enforcement was removing gang members from El Salvador but that they continued to return and he added that “El Salvador just takes our money, and Mexico must help MORE with this problem. We need The Wall!”. This statement marks the second time that the Salvadorian president Salvador Sanchez Ceren has had to send the United States a formal protest the first time being the time comments were made by Trump where he called some immigrants homes "Shithole" countries.
