Will Cutting Aid End US 'Border Crisis'?

The US has cut aid to the Central American countries of Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador. Humanitarian programmes have attempted to address the root causes of why people flee the Northern Triangle in the first place by providing security and employment. So, could cutting aid actually cause more migrants to head for the US? Or was the assistance making so little difference that it makes sense for Trump to cut costs?
