President Donald Trump on Sunday renewed his push to build a wall along the southwestern border, promising yet again that Mexico will end up covering the construction costs.

and again, Mexico blows him off.

This is what Trump calls The Art of negotiation. ..Declare enough times, and maybe the other side will come around.

No, they'll never come around but it doesn't matter because there are ways to make them pay "involuntarily" anyway.

Doesn't anybody realize that stating that Mexico will pay for the wall does not mean they are going to hand over a check. It's an expression of speech and with truth as there are many ways that they would end up paying for it without realizing what they are actually doing. Trump has been a successful businessman so I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt that he can use those same tactics in his presidency. Let him do his job, one might just be pleasantly surprised!

They won't pay directly. Whatever Trump's plans will save us from NAFTA , deporting illegals and deporting DACA will pay for itself in the long run. They will pay by having more welfare recipients, and less tax revenue, lost jobs, from companies who move back to the US. More central Americans will stay in Mexico also because of the enforcement by the Trump admin. Also the billions sent from illegals to family at home will not come anymore because they will be deported... landscaping, factory, and other jobs back in the US. Maga

Actually that may happen...with all the taxpayers money that has/will be saved in wasted social services on illegals..... it may be a doable deal.
