How could anyone possibly think that Mexico would pay for the wall,when a lot of the money that keeps Mexico afloat comes from illegal aliens sending money home?
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

Take payment in barrels of oil, I imagine.

Maybe I am wrong,but I thought Mexico had it's own oil?

There can be no doubt that the US is a "financial pressure escape valve" for the Mexican economy. Lots of Mexican citizens have dual citizenships or just Mexican citizenships,and their children go to school in the US every day,have medicaid,SS checks,etc,etc,etc

A wall would kill all that.

The Twin Cities have five flights daily to Cancun these winter days, two to Puerto Vallarta and two to Cozumel.  Regular flights to Cabo, Manzanillo and Mazatlan too.

If pressure is going to be exerted, that might be a way.   Mexico would fall apart if American tourism were threatened and oil heavily tariffed. 

Mexico's narco-economy is unchecked right now and if their mafia are bringing guns, drugs and illegals here they damn sure will bring an ISIS ghoul looking to blow us up.

Obama is enabling this shat.
