In his primetime Oval Office address Tuesday night, President Trump appeared to suggest all Americans should support his push to build a wall along the southern border because “wealthy” politicians build fences and walls around their homes. “Why do wealthy politicians build walls and fences?” Trump asked. “[Because] they love the people on the inside.” Trump also repeated his claim that the wall would be “indirectly paid for” by the new North American trade deal with Mexico, a claim that has already been widely disputed.
