Flashback 2016: Trump Says Mexico Will Pay for the Wall “Through Money We Save on Trade Negotiations”

On Friday President Trump tweeted on Friday how Mexico will pay for the Trump border wall.

President Trump: I often said during rallies, with little variation, that “Mexico will pay for the Wall.” We have just signed a great new Trade Deal with Mexico. It is Billions of Dollars a year better than the very bad NAFTA deal which it replaces. The difference pays for Wall many times over!

In March 2016 Candidate Trump explained to Sean Hannity how Mexico will pay for the wall.

Trump told Sean Mexico will pay for the wall through “the money we save on trade negotiations.”
