( robin ) president donald trump says there will be no deal on daca. the president made the announcement on twitter yesterday. as boris sanchez has the details. "no confirmation yet from the white house on why the president chose easter sunday to send this message about immigration, but we can kind of surmise what was going on around the time that he sent these tweets and made this statement shortly before the president tweeted there was a report on a cable news outlet about this caravan of immigrants that's moving through central america and
4:10 am
into mexico. some of them with the intent of asking the united states for asylum to thereby enter the country. the president obviously angered by this report and so he fired off these tweets, demanding that mexico do more to stop the flow of immigrants, and also in his words, to stop the flow of drugs from entering the united states. the president threatening to end the north american free trade agreement if mexico doesn't act. the president was met by cameras shortly before entering a church for easter service on sunday morning in west palm beach. here's more of what he said. listen." president donald trump:"mexico has got to help us at the border. if they're not going to help us at the border, it's a very sad thing between two countries. mexico has got to help us at the border, and a lot of people are coming in because they want to take advantage of daca, and we're going to have to really see. they had a great chance. the democrats blew it. they had a great, great chance, but we'll
4:11 am
have to take look. mexico has got to help us at the border. they flow right through mexico. they send them into the united states. can't happen that way anymore. thank you."boris sanchez/cnn u.s. correspondent:"one notable piece of what the president said there that more immigrants are rushing to try to get in on the action on daca. that doesn't exactly coincide with what the daca program actually entails. individual eligibility aside, president trump ended this program back in september, essentially making it impossible for any new arrivals to the united states to apply for daca. of course, courts have ultimately ruled that the dreamers within the united states are staying here with daca eligibility, would be able to remain -- that is they would be able to renew their legal status through the courts as this process plays out. but for the president to say that a daca deal is dead is a bit surprising considering that weeks ago, several iterations of a deal for these dreamers fell apart in congress. so, it appears that the president is taking a bargaining chip off the table that was already gone ( robin ) that was boris sanchez
