Donald Trump had to be talked down from wild plans on immigration control, which i
ncluded shooting immigrants, electrifying the border wall and creating a moat filled with snakes and crocodiles, according to a new book based on White House insider accounts.
https://www.news.com.au/world/north-ame ... 0aaf76a619The US President has never been shy about his goal of stopping immigrants entering the country through the US-Mexico border.
One of the main promises he made during his 2016 election campaign was to increase border security by building a wall along the entire 3145km length of the border.
Mr Trump later revised this promise, saying the wall would only actually cover half the length as natural barriers like mountains and river would cover the rest.
Despite no new wall being built yet and only about 95km of old barriers replaced, Mr Trump is still fixated on pursuing ways of stopping the influx of immigrants.
