One of former President Donald Trump’s campaign pledges was to block the southern border from migrants by building a wall. The wall, while inevitably shut down by Joe Biden, was reportedly often compromised by migrants looking to cross using cheap ladders.
The wall that was being built to close off the southern border to migrants, did not stop migrants seeking to cross over to the US. US Border Patrol officials have been finding discarded ladders that migrants use to climb over the portions of the wall that was built under the Trump administration. The officials have resorted to calling authorities in Hidalgo, Texas, to take away the discarded ladders.
