“We are not going to pay any single cent for such a stupid wall,” said former Mexican president Felipe Calderon. “And it’s going to be completely useless.”
He’s welcome to say he won’t pay for it - my problem is with the second part.
The purpose of the wall is to stop, or at least drastically slow the importation of criminals, drugs, illegals, and terrorists. Is Senior Calderon saying that TRUMP HAS BEEN RIGHT ALL ALONG, and that is Mexico is INTENTIONALLY sending that crap here, and will continue to, wall or no wall? - it certainly sounds that way.
We should invade the northern part and declare a new border somewhere north of Mexico City. We then sponsor an independent northern Mexico state, hang the drug smugglers and install a U.S. friendly government.
Most of the best Mexicans I've met in my life come from the entrepreneurial north of the country, especially around Monterrey. Car assembly plants designated for the U.S. market are also located that general area. Mexico City and southward are mostly populated by the indolent and government bureaucrat parasites who live off bribes and taxes.
