Lol not only did the little man/child narcissist comply, but it didn’t make any difference! Another epic troll, although now I think Trump is serious!

That’s fine for Canada. Mexico will need the additional alligator pits, mine fields, velociraptor packs, and HK’s (hunter-killer drones).

Don’t forget the ill-tempered seabass with the frikkin laser beams on their heads.

It does no good for them to beef up the US Canadian borders if they don’t stop the illegals coming into their country.... that then head to the US border.

Why does it take Trump to make these snow mexicans do the right thing? Eff Canada. Close the border completely and don’t give them a cent of our business.

I’m totally down for the velociraptors idea - they’re scary!

I cross over the US/Canadian border on a semi frequent basis. When entering Canada the border agents ask me a couple of questions and wave me through. It takes about 45 seconds. Returning home the US agents give me the 3rd Degree...acting as if they suspected me of kidnapping the Lindbergh baby.

I always enjoy the stories about wogs trying to sneak into the USA in January across the North Dakota border.

The wogs sneak in but they don't check out. Disney made a movie about them called "Frozen".

R.I.P. suckers.

AC-130J Ghostriders are far more lethal. They will just be gathering dust so put them to use paroling the entire border.

Last time I drove from Valdez to Yukon and down to the Lower 48, the Mounties tore everything on my SUV apart. Took over and hour, not counting the personal search, the nasty looks and putting everything back into the SUV..

Of course it will be to stop Americans from coming into Canada and meanwhile the illegals will continue to pour into the US.

He can make all the promises he likes, but will he enforce them?
