Trump ‘s surge in polls is troubling to Mexicans, LOL
To: VanShuyten
Good point. I would term it “cultural diffusion”.
Those mexicans we excrete back to their homeland know what a functional, Western civilization looks like.

There is a downside - civil unrest in Mexico could lead directly to a Communist revolution. This would not only greatly inconvenience Carlos Slim and other Friends of Jeb but might require the elites to also actually interdict drug shipments since none of their friends would be making money off of them any more.
Just all kinds of downsides, actually. :)

Catastrophic for the future electoral prospects of the democrat party.
Catastrophic for the GOPe and their cheap labor pimps at the U.S. Chamber of Amnesty, and for Thomas Donohue.
Catastrophic for the corrupt Mexican government and the underclass they want to send north.
Like you said, they can go pee up a rope.
Or, as my late father used to say, “they can go pi$$ up a CROOKED rope!”

Yup, catastrophic to the Mexican economy as they say adios to all the American Taxpayer dollars being made available to be sent home through all the supplement programs offered and promoted to the southern invaders.

Trump is shoving back, and I haven't seen anyone else do that. And we never will see the push back that Trump delivers. If for nothing else the crashing down hard on Mexican and their flow of American dollars to Mexico, Trump gets my vote.
To: AngelesCrestHighway
Shouldn’t their be reciprocity at least. Americans should be able to go to Mexico at will.
It would only take about a generation before the Americans owned the economy.

I was thinking....why should Mexico, expect America of accommodate their breeding surplus....the liberals preach planned parenthood, but not in Mexico,down there they breed and expect others to provide jobs and housing...much the same for Europe, the Muslims are like flies invading the EU

Compared to what illegals flooding our border and all the issues that creates?
Compared to our 18 trillion, and rising, debt?
Compared to ObamaCare.

I believe the funds Trump is talking about are the penalties charged to firms who have employee claims against them. That money goes imto a central fund and is distributed by the the Mexican government. So the money actually comes from US not Mexico.
Western Union does charge a hefty fee to wire money to Mexico. Somebody there gets their cut.
Reciprocal treatment, the way Mexico treats its illegals is the way we should handle illegals from Mexico. Is the way the US should handle this.

If the Mexican "experts," actually showed Americans the same respect that they want in return for not respecting us, they would realize that the continuity of American culture, depends upon Americans reasserting the right to control their borders and preserve their own culture.
Respect involves recognizing the nature of those who are the subject of that respect. Nothing is more ludicrous than the idea that you show respect to any of the unique peoples of the world, by pretending that they are interchangeable--as the Leftist "diversity" cult pretends.
The fact that various peoples successfully assimilated into the Anglo/Celtic culture of the Founders, does not mean that all peoples so assimilate. The fact that when we had far less people within our borders, when that assimilation took place, does not add anything in favor of an open border with Mexico. The fact that Jefferson bought Louisiana--look it up--in order to create a buffer between the Anglo & Hispanic peoples in North America, showed a recognition of one the essential points, over two centuries ago.
Yes there are hard working people in Mexico; yes some of them are admirable representatives of Mexican culture. None of this is an argument for turning American communities into Hispanic communities.
