Maggie Haberman questions Trump's claim of immediate border closure by Mexico
Donald Trump claimed on social media that Mexico would "immediately" close the U.S.-Mexico border to stop illegal immigration. This announcement was made on his Truth Social platform on Wednesday. Maggie Haberman, a New York Times reporter, expressed skepticism about Trump's statement during a CNN appearance. She noted that similar claims made during his presidency did not lead to actual border closures. Haberman suggested that Trump's announcement might be linked to recent tariff threats against Mexico and Canada. She highlighted the informal nature of Trump's communications with foreign leaders, leaving uncertainty about the details of his discussions.
