Here is a better idea, return the money to the people it was stolen from right here in the good ole US instead of wealthy cronies in south america.

MEXICO CITY (AP) — The United States pledged $5.8 billion in aid and investment Tuesday for strengthening government and economic development in Central America, and another $4.8 billion in development aid for southern Mexico.

The U.S aid aims to promote better security conditions and job opportunities as part of a regional plan to allow Central Americans and Mexicans to remain in their countries and not have to emigrate.

The plan was announced in a joint U.S.-Mexican statement released by the State Department and read aloud by Mexican Foreign Relations Secretary Marcelo Ebrard in the Mexican capital.

I'm sure that money will be well spent.

The oversight will be scrupulous and tangible results will be available post haste.

No really...(snorts a line of coke)...I mean that.

Now this pizzes me off. Mexico needs to be giving us $5 billion not the other way around. This had beeter be an underhanded tactic by Trump to get the $5 billion funded by Congress so he can divert it to our border.

Trump's swamp-draining progress seems to have come to a screeching halt of late.

This is a positive I agree with Trump for once, address the cause rather than the symptom.
