$4.8 Billion to Mexico, $5.8 Billion to Central American countries. That's $10.6 Billion in aid and ...
No Wall funding - or, at least no requirement of Wall funding to avoid a government shutdown.

DRUDGE highlighted the two stories together.
From the Mexico getting the same amount Trump is asking for on the Wall, the article says,
Looks like Trump is caving and is giving up over $10 Billion in foreign aid to the countries that the migrants are coming from.
Why is he doing this? Any ideas?

It was unclear if Mexico would give anything in return. A planned announcement about Mexico’s migration policy was postponed until Wednesday.
The United States has reportedly wanted Mexico to allow migrants seeking asylum in the United States to remain in Mexico while their applications are processed.

Maybe Mexico will build the wall with the money we give them, lol

I think the idea is for those countries to take care of their own people so they won't need to come here. We all know that isn't gonna happen though.

I feel like I'm getting effed by Trump at this point but if Mexico gives it back to pay for the wall I will put his picture on my wall.

Some left wing sites have video demonstrations how people can get over any wall. The athletes who do it are very fit.
But Mexico is the most obese nation in the world.

I really believe Trump is well aware of the fact he'll not be re-elected, or possibly even finish his first term. He doesn't have the political support for The Wall now, so a Bandaid approach through foreign aid is the only viable solution.

It would be hilarious if trump secretly made a deal with Mexico to send aid money in return they pay for the wall
