Mexican migrant group splits after Trump's unexpected comeback

A big group of migrants in Mexico got smaller after **Donald Trump** won the election. While some people turned back to where they started others kept moving forward hoping to reach US before January

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

said Heyman Vázquez‚ a Catholic priest in Chiapas

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
