The migrant group walking thru Mexico got way smaller this week - from three-thousand to just sixteen-hundred people (which shows how quick things can change). After Donald Trump won two days ago many folks changed their mind about going north
About one-hundred people asked to go back to Tapachula; nobody knows where others went. Valerie Andrade a Venezuelan walker said: “I wanted Kamala Harris to win but that didnt happen.“ Like seven-million other people from Venezuela she left home looking for better life
People will seek new paths; itʼll be more dangerous but it wont stop them
Trump wants to make big changes when he starts work in Jan-2025: send lots of people back to Mexico quickly and stop giving papers to kids born to non-legal parents. His last time in charge (bout 5 years ago) lots of folks got stuck at the border
Some families are going back to Guatemala-Mexico border area but others like Jeilimar - whoʼs moving with her six-year-old kid - still think they can make it: “With Gods help Iʼll get my border app meeting.“ She wants to reach US before Trump starts his new job
