What a frickin’ joke!
Her “poor” are in the US.
Send them back to her with the money!

[doc maverick]

Every damn one of them that’s come in here in the last 20 years!

[Jonty30]

She can have what is left over after paying for the wall.

[Secret Agent Man]

Nope

We’ll consider it partial reimbursment for the tens of millions of mexican illegals that have used up our services.

[Libloather]

Once the Trump skyscraper library is completed, sure.

[joshua c]

poor claudia

missed out on the booty

and the bribes have stopped

[doc maverick]

LOL!

[mbrfl]

Didn’t we just spend the last 30 years sending you all our factories? If we just call it even, consider yourself lucky.

[Fireone]

Sorry Claud...He’s sharing it with me, I need a bigger boat!

[econjack]

Here's a give-a-fish, learn-to-fish moment. One path leads to greater gov't dependence and the other to self-independence. Any bets on which path wins?

[Brian Griffin]

His money was sourced (almost entirely) from the US and the US should get it back.

There are other drug cartel leaders still in Mexico that Mexico can extract money from. Take every peso, Presidente, por favor.

[Mark17]

On the chutzpah front, it's hard to top Mexico's rulers.

Ain’t that the truth.

[roving]

Why don’t she just share her cut of the cartel money?

[Seaplaner]

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said Wednesday said she would ask the United States to share the $15 billion it expects to extract from convicted Mexican drug lord Ismael "El Mayo" Zambada with her country's poor.

Hmm, what did Ms. Sheinbaum do to to stem the flow of illegal aliens into our great Country? What about the flow of drugs? On the basis of cost alone, our neighbor to the south owes us much much more than a mere $15B.

[South Dakota]

Sure.
Recall every Mexican citizen in the US first

[Paladin2]

Great Idea!

[californian by choice]

I have another idea: why not charge the Cuban government for all the oil it has been sending for decades? It would be a great help to the poor in Mexico.

[RetiredTexasVet]

She has already gotten her cut. She gets paid monthly. Employee contributions.

[Singermom]

MEXICO’S POOR ARE HERE and our taxpayers are making them RICH.
