This series called The Last Trump was composed to show the doings during the Trump presidency with the US-Mexico border wall. Specifically, how the Trump administration has been the lurking shadows and horror for so many families during the last four years -- turning away refugees, detaining legal US residents, and tearing apart families in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention facilities. The effects will last generations, all at the hand of Trump -- and hopefully for the last time.
