#1 I think mexico has bigger problems on hand than the trumpster.

Now if trump starts making noises about "Picking up where we left off in 1848" and "Bringing El Norte to you" then the mexicans have grounds for complaint.

#2 "They do not, they do not, they do not represent the view of the vast majority of the American people."

Whatever you say, Joe!

#3 #1 - might as well get the resources if we're going to get stuck with the population. And you can shrink the length of the border the further south you go. The wall just got smaller.

#4 In essence, Trump is talking about defunding Mexico. The benefactors of the status quo could be expected to complain.

#6 Is there a downside?

If you like ObamaCare, crony capitalism, abortion and wishy washy supreme court justices, no. No downside at all.

#7 ...we already have that with a wishy washy Trunk controlled Congress which by the way is suppose to control the purse strings and in doing so corral most of that. However, they seemed happy passing the Pelosi-Reid sponsored omnibus funding that covered all that for another year plus of operation. Then they make a theater of proposed restrictions which are of course subject to executive veto. They know that. They're just trying to make it look good.
