So much for Cruz’s idea to fund the wall. Of course using drug money to build the wall is a bit dodgy anyways.

We need the help of the Mossad. But his wife in a box and ship her somewhere for rendition. He will talk when he hears her scream.

Yep, it’s kinda hard to build the wall with it, when you can’t even find it.

Perhaps the Mexican presidente is holding it for El Chapo in some of the presidente’s suitcases for safekeeping?
