Trump to highlight border wall topping 400 miles with Texas visit during last full week in office


With just over a week remaining in his term, President Trump is expected to celebrate progress on one of his featured campaign promises: a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. According to a senior administration official, Trump will be in Alamo, Texas on Tuesday after the White House marked roughly 450 miles of the barrier being completed. AS TRUMP'S BORDER WALL TOPS 450-MILE GOAL, CBP CHIEF SAYS MORE WALL IS COMING"President Trump is expected to travel to Alamo, Texas, on Tuesday to mark the completion of more than 400 miles of border wall — a promise made, promise kept — and his Administration’s efforts to reform our broken immigration system," the official said. In 2019, Trump had pledged to have 450 miles of the wall completed by the end of 2020. In February 2016, Trump told MSNBC that a wall was needed along 1,000 miles of the border that does not already have natural barriers.
