Twitter Responds to Trump's Tweet About the Border
One of President Donald Trump's biggest campaign promises during the 2016 election was that he would build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border, and that the latter country would foot the bill. As he approaches the end of his first 100 days in office, however, it seems less and less likely that he'll be able to follow through on this promise - and so, he decided to take to Twitter on Sunday to blame everything on the Democrats.
The Democrats don't want money from budget going to border wall despite the fact that it will stop drugs and very bad MS 13 gang members.

Eventually, but at a later date so we can get started early, Mexico will be paying, in some form, for the badly needed border wall.

However, many were quick to poke fun at the president for his avoidant choice of words, which only seemed to further confirm that Mexico would not be paying for the wall and that the financial burden would fall on U.S. taxpayers. Here are just a few of the funniest responses to his tweets so far.
1.
"Who's gonna pay for the wall?"
"Mexico!"
"When?"
"Eventually!"
"...WHEN?!"
"At a later date!"
"And how will they pay?"
"In some form!" https://t.co/Ex9FopHXYb

@realDonaldTrump At some point, possibly in the future, Mexico might consider maybe paying for the wall, maybe with money, but maybe not. We don't know yet
