First 100 days and this President has gone back on almost everything he said before he was elected. This is what happens when someone is elected who has absolutely zero experience of politics or public office or the realities of how difficult it is to get things done whilst there.
I'm going to make an early prediction about the fate of the wall - there may be some additional fortified fencing erected along some parts of the border, but there is no way a WALL is going to be built across the entire US border with Mexico.
First the US government does not have the money to pay for this. Second Mexico will not front any of the money to pay for it - Trump may have alluded to ways he'd have Mexico fund the wall, but they were probably backdoor ways that might cover the cost in the long run such as taxing Mexican Western Union payments from the US, and closing the trade deficit with Mexico.
There's no way the US can force Mexico to front the money for the wall, and the US doesn't have the money to front for the wall. No money to front for it means the wall doesn't get built. This is a reality Trump had no idea about before he was elected. He obviously thought once he got there he could just snap his fingers and whatever would happen.
