How low can the border crossings go?

Illegal crossings at the US-Mexico border fell yet again in March, hitting another record — with border agents barely seeing 7,000 migrants enter illegally.

That’s down 94% from the 137,000 people who poured across the border in March last year. It follows February crossings of roughly 8,300 illegal migrants — the lowest in at least 25 years.
 
And it’s all a result of “the Trump effect,” multiple Homeland Security sources told The Post Monday.

Migrants are “scared there are consequences now,” said one DHS source, adding “everyone who is caught is charged and does time.”
