If it is funded by Taxing Monetary Transfers to Mexico, they are indirectly paying for it.

Then again, what if the Taxpayers ended up paying for it? Don’t you think securing the Border is worth paying for? How much does the Border Patrol cost the Taxpayers anyway?

Instead of all that money flowing out of the United States benefitting Mexico’s Economy, it will be used to build the Wall using American Labor and Resources. Sounds good to me.

Net result, Mexico pays for it one way or the other.

I think a 10% Tax, not 50% on the Money sent to Mexico should be enough to get the Job done.

Don’t be blinded by TDS. Securing our Border should have been Job One decades ago, don’t you agree? Obviously the Politicians from both Parties didn’t agree or we wouldn’t be talking about it today.

Not really. You assume that ever money transfer to Mexico is done by an illegal. I'm sure that the bulk of it is done by businesses and legal residents. You will be taxing them as well.

But that's not what Trump is promising. He isn't saying he'll only secure the border, which is desperately needed. He's saying he'll do it at no cost to the U.S.

Not if we're paying for it first.

I don't disagree that the border should have been secured long ago. But pointing out that Trump's promises are idiotic and unworkable is not being delusional. Blindly believing everything he says is.
