Answer preview

For immigrants, the US-Mexico border fence is merely a dividing line between bitter reality and a dream that has plagued the imagination of thousands of Central Americans stranded at the fence that has been fueled by US President Donald Trump’s anti-immigration policy, which observers say is “cruel” (Kerwin, 2018). Thousands of kilometers of immigrants in Central American countries escaped poverty and destitution before arriving in the Mexican town of Tijuana, where attempts to climb the separation fence and jump into the US territory often begin to fail, as the attempt involves bypassing Mexican border guards.
