However, Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen NielsenKirstjen Michele NielsenPoll: Nearly half support transgender people serving in military, oppose Trump's ban Trump shares photos touting "the start" of border wall Trump, Britain's Theresa May discuss clamping down on Russian spy work MORE clarified that the photos Trump shared are of a wall being rebuilt in Calexico, Calif. "Has he given up?"
"People said, 'Oh has he given up on the wall?' No, I never give up". During the presidential campaign, Trump lashed out at primary opponent Jeb Bush for suggesting that Trump would build a fence instead of a wall.
But Trump has had no success in trying to get US$25 billion (RM96.64 billion) in funding for the wall from Congress, so he has turned to the Pentagon in the hope of poaching funds from the defense budget.
"We spend billions of dollars in other countries maintaining their borders and we can't maintain our borders in our own country - is there something a little bit wrong with that?", he said during a speech in OH touting his infrastructure agenda. The president has repeatedly called the $1.6 billion in funding a "down payment" for the wall. Trump is mad that he didn't secure his wall in the omnibus, and so he's throwing out silly ideas and wasting West Wing man-hours by forcing his aides to look into them as though he's onto something. "It's properly designed", he continued. "I said what a thing of beauty", he added, referencing photos he tweeted on Wednesday. "That's what I do is I build". "I think it can be done right on our border as part of the defense".
