American President has stopped the most wall building that started under Donald Trump-era, accomplishing a campaign pledge. Moreover, Donald Trump said that he accepted a request of Greg Abbott on Wednesday to assist the Gov. of Texas on the journey to the wall construction in 2 weeks on 30 June.
Texas Gov. isn’t the first ally of Donald Trump to try ramping up people’s donations for making the border wall. In 2018, Brian Kolfage (an air force veteran) proposed that they build the wall, a non-profit that requested money to make a private border wall, and recruited Steve Bannon (former White House chief strategist) in the struggle.
After getting above twenty-five million dollars for the plan, Kolfage, Bannon, and 2 others were taken into custody for deceiving donors. In January, Bannon was pardoned by then-President Donald Trump, still, he can deal with the state charges. Besides this, the case of Brian Kolfage had proceeded in the court.
Similarly, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has dealt with sharp criticism from Democrats since declaring his border wall construction plan. Many of the people even have raised the question of whether any governor has a legal right to order the plan.
