I like what he says too but I live in the real world and know it isn’t quite that simple.
But can’t he just say “Let there be a wall, and there was a wall,” similar to Genesis 1:3?
It is not simple. But Mexico depends upon the ability of people and goods to cross the border. If they want this to continue, it is not unreasonable that they should pay for it. Ways to do this? A tax on goods imported from Mexico? A special border-crossing fee on non-US citizens entering from Mexico?
People though seem to be caught up in the bells and whistles, the Dr. Seuss machines making noises, the carnival-like atmosphere, the bluster, the “chest-thumping” and big talk.
A lot of sound and fury but signifying nothing.
Investigate trade imbalance with Mexico. Then add dollars going to Mexico from Mexicans in US. When you find that number it will be obvious why Mexico will pay for the wall and happy to continue the bonanza coming from north.
Tax the money flowing through Western Union into Mexico. Billions.
