Trump was skyrocketed to being the frontrunner because of the ‘wall’ - actually his entire policy to fix illegal immigration and give jobs and the country back to Americans.

Cruz copied after he saw it was indeed popular.

If it wasn’t for Trump, it would’ve never even been discussed and Cruz would’ve been like Hunter and Tancredo as candidates years ago, with Jeb, Rubio, and Kasich leading the field in not discussing the elephant in the country.

Simple question..

Should someone that’s in the country illegally.......

Be allowed to transfer money in or out of the country?...

and that’s irregardless of the wall

after all someone that’s illegally in the country should not be able to legally physically pass across the border back and forth...

And therefore someone that’s illegally in the country should also not be able to legally pass funds/money back and forth across the border

There are many ways to get Mexico to pay for a BIG WALL that REALLY protects the real citizens of America. Something our Federal stooges have deliberately failed to do for soooo long. (It is called MONEY).

Perhaps Mexico, having paid for the wall, would say something like, "OK, we paid for it. It's OURS. Touch it and there will be trouble."

Just thinking.....

Why don’t we just use the drug cartel money we’ve confiscated?

Even if by some miracle Trump is elected, there will never be a wall. Trump has no intention on building a wall. It’s a campaign gimmick to get angry voters to flock to him.

The thing is you wouldn’t need a wall the entire length of the border. Here in Texas we have the area from El Paso over to say Presidio, where good roads run all the way to the river from Mexico. The bad guys rule a lot of that. Put up gun towers every mile or so of wall, fill ‘em with snipers.

Then you have the area from Presidio over to Langtry or so where electronics, aircraft and BP agents could easily protect from invaders. I’m against building a wall through there. The communities on the Mexican side are tiny and the roads getting in there are your basic dirt road. Not that much traffic getting into the river area. Not to say there are no bad dudes, there are and I’ve seen them, but nothing the BP couldn’t cover. Just armor ‘em heavy and turn ‘em loose. If I am riding my mountain bike down around the old mine or somewhere in the Big Bend and I see a couple of armored humvees go by, I give ‘em a big thumbs-up.

From Del Rio to the Gulf could use some wall, wouldn’t be that bad to install. Doubt you’d need as many gun towers, or snipers. Doable.

All in all I think Trump is right that we should make the Mexicans pay for it, they’ve certainly profited mightily from the absence of security.
