The number of Latino-owned business interested in
building Trump’s wall is up to 60
Although,
specifically, the 60
Latino-owned firms are interested in getting a chunk of the $21 billion that will be
spent on the construction project, the fact that it’s a border wall is a
technicality. The semantic trick is to call it an infrastructure project. 
Al Día reports: “More than 60 Hispanic companies, all interested in constructing the controversial wall that US President Donald Trump wants to build on the Mexican border, are putting aside political and patriotic concerns for the chance to make money and create jobs.
"’Honestly, for us it is above all an infrastructure project and a way to create jobs, something we really need in New Mexico,’" Mario Burgos of the Burgos Group construction company told EFE.”
Someone once joked that Trump would need a lot of Mexicans to build his border wall. Truth is stranger than wit.
