Trump considers 20% border tax to finance wall

Trump's proposed US-Mexico border wall to cost $21.6 billion

The proposed wall along the US-Mexico border will cost $21.6 billion, a study from Department of Homeland Security has found. It will take over three years to construct it.

These figures are much higher than Trump's $12-billion and Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan's $15-billion estimates.

The wall is expected to cover over 2,000 kms by 2020. 1,046 kms of the border are already fortified.
