Jorge, known to his friends as George, has been a taxi driver in El Paso, Texas for the last 15 years. He says the US/Mexico border has “changed drastically� in that time. He told 5 live Drive’s Anna Foster people would “climb the fence� or “jump out of manhole covers� to get across the border. “Their hands were all bloodied because they used to jump the chain-link fence.� On Donald Trump’s idea of building a giant wall between the two countries, Jorge believes it wouldn’t make much difference. “You could build a 100-foot wall and people are going to get by, they’ll find a way.� This clip is originally from 5 live Drive on 10 October 2016.
