Former Mexican President Felipe Calderón told CNBC Saturday that his country would not contribute “a single cent†to the building of Donald Trump’s proposed wall.
“Mexican people, we are not going to pay any single cent for such a stupid wall!†Calderón, who served as president from 2006 to 2012, said. “And it’s going to be completely useless.â€
“The first loser of such a policy would be the United States,†he added. “If this guy pretends that closing the borders to anywhere either for trade [or] for people is going to provide prosperity to the United State, he is completely crazy.â€
Trump appeared on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe†Tuesday and offered a response to Calderón’s comments.
“I heard the head of Mexico said ‘no way,’ and I said, ‘Now the wall just got taller,†the Republican candidate told “Morning Joe†hosts.

He should vow: NO ONE who entered this country illegally will EVER become a citizen. This will be the law of the land!

Way.To.Go.TRUMP!!!
Why is The Blaze allowed to be posted here but Weasel Zippers is not?
love it.....
Mexico has no say. And they pay by us taking a cut of wire transfers going south and other fees.
And now that DT has "green lighted" vulgarity and profanity in the public discourse, it's how FReepers will now converse? Yes?
Profanity: How small minds try to speak with strength? (Vanity)
“I know you are but what am I”... More grade school bluster from the egoist in chief. Its easy to start a war of words, harder to follow it with action.
They don’t need to cave, they’ll pay thru various fees levied on Mexicans in the US. Fees on green cards, money wire transfers, trucking fees, importation of goods etc. And if they don’t like it they can leave...or be given the boot. It’s a win-win for us.
and certainly more vulgar. Can his Trump or his supporters not speak or post without crude language? Ill buy you a thesaurus
“I don’t hear Mexico caving in to the threat.”
????
Is Trump supposed to get Mexico’s permission?
Whine all you want. The others are too busy being polite to Mexico and kissing ass. This is a nice change and already puts him head and shoulders above the others.
What does establishment & media expect Calderón to say, yay, it’s a wall?
Why do you people always look at the slang definition first? It's like we were kids and looked up b**** in the dictionary only to find it meant a female dog.
Mexico is going to pay for it through tariffs and fees
It’s not like he is going to send Mexico an invoice
Trump is an idiot. Do you guys actually believe him when he says stuff like this?
Being quick-witted is not a compliment? Oookay. Slow-witted Jeb wins the day!
Bluster is not action.
People have had 8 years of pure hell. Trump is opening the gates of empowerment. THe troops are rallying because they identify.
As we have seen....We are fighting a barbaric enemy. THe high road doesnt work. Time to stoop down and outdo them better even in low class insults. It removes their cockiness.
If they attack , you attack even harder. No more Jeb Bush strategy.
Are you kidding? Freepers have been using foul language long before a Trump came on the scene. Or is FUBO and anything similar not foul language?
The ones who -won’t- start the war of words won’t do so because they actually want amnesty.
