I bolded the part that was conveniently left out

"Rather than talking about putting up a fence, why don’t we work out some recognition of our mutual problems? Make it possible for them to come here legally with a work permit, and then, while they’re working and earning here, they’d pay taxes here. And when they want to go back, they can go back. They can cross. Open the borders both ways."
And who is paying for said wall?
China. We're cutting taxes and spending more, what a fantastic idea!
