Given that Trump was surrounded by Democrats and Chamber of Commerce Republicans whose interests were not aligned with working Americans, wishes don't always come true. Trump is trying. Maybe you should refocus on who is preventing Trump from building a wall. I'm against the wall. The Chinese wall worked pretty well until traitors took bribes and opened its gates to the Mongols. Building a wall would be a big waste of money the next time Democrats control the presidency and Congress for the same reason the Great Chinese Wall failed. Besides, about 1/3 of illegal non-citizens overstayed their visas. Walls would never have stopped them. A substantial border fence, like Senator Clinton once voted for, would be nice though. More economical fences work for Israel.
My first three sentences, above, are from a 1995 Bill Clinton quote.
