The only proper response from Mexico would be to tell the illegals that they don’t belong in the U.S. and they need to stop breaking the law and come home to Mexico.
But then Mexico’s economy would collapse because they depend on their illegals to send home enough remittances to keep them afloat. Well guess what, it ain’t our responsibility to carry an entire country on our backs like some giant parasite.
The illegals need to go home. the decent ones can return later after going through the proper procedures.
Oh well, it’s Ok if they are here and working, as long as they are legal.
Remember the President said they are welcome to come here as long as they do it legally.
And he said the WALL is going to have a BIG BEAUTIFUL GATE for those welcome to come in.
So as I see it, the proper attitude towards Mexicans is “Welcome to America”, “Have a wonderful sojourn in the land of the free!”, but .... JUST MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AUTHORITY TO ENTER!
When I will see or talk with my Mexican friends, I will tell them “sure you’re still welcome, the new President is simply makinig sure everyone is legal first”. (my Mexican friends are part of the top 10% of their society and they have Visas to enter; some also own properties in the US).
“But then Mexico’s economy would collapse because they depend on their illegals to send home enough remittances to keep them afloat. “
Maybe we should ‘quietly tell them” that unless they stop trying to help their citizens who are illegally in our county on how to evade detection, we will consider their actions an act of war on us.
It’s time America recognized the fact that Mexico is an enemy of this country and should be treated accordingly.
