How could Trump forcibly make Mexico pay for a wall?


Posted: Jan 9, 2016

I cannot imagine they would want to pay for it.  If they did build a wall, what good would it do?  Didn't this El Chapo guy have a tunnel underneath?

All politicians throughout history (the ones we like and the ones we do not) make claims about what they will do if elected. They know when they say these things that they cannot "make" these things happen. But it must get votes. Again, ALL politicians have done this throughout history in every country in every big election. Whichever president you voted for who went on to win, go back and read their campaign promises and compare it to what they really were able to accomplish once in office.

True, but some are more outrageous than others. - sm

Like building a wall and making Mexico, or is it Morocco?, pay for it, or rounding up 11 million people and their citizen children and deporting them. Anyone who believes his fairytales has a reality problem.

Reality problem? One might say the same about a Hillary - fan.

It has proven over and over that it has the inability to tell the truth about anyone. Anyone who believes it's fairytales and lies has a reality problem.

Never said "forcibly", now did he? - sm

There are many ways to exert influence. Mexico needs the US far more than the US needs Mexico. Think about it. You might start by turning their produce trucks back at the border, or even by requiring those trucks to meet US highway safety standards before entering the US - which many do not meet now. (In fact, that would make good sense.)

And if you didn't turn the trucks back, you could simply subject them to lengthy border inspections...produce has a short shelf life, and it would unquestionably be a very good thing to know exactly what's coming into this country anyway.

The federal government also has a variety of significant fiscal strings we can pull with respect to Mexico.

Don't think it can't be done, because it probably can be done. However, how effective the wall might be is a more legitimate question, IMHO. It would certainly not be a magic solution to the problem.

Yes, there are many ways, force not one of them.(sm) - Texan

One thing I just remembered, many of them who work here illegally travel back and forth to Mexico, send money via telegrams, etc. etc. Fees for crossing the border can be increased, add an additional surcharge of $50 to wire money, there are lots of ways. I'm still waiting for him to get done working outside.

Well, now he can't remember his other ideas either. LOL (sm) - Texan

He does remember the extra charges for money being wired. Many of them work with false SS#'s here, (the Mexican boss helped them get away with this) and they were not p utting into our economy like our government would like is to believe. So up the charge for wiring money or crossing the border. Many of them go every 2 weeks. This would go a long way toward paying for the wall. If he ever remembers the rest, I'll be back.

Forcibly versus willingly? I don't think willingly. - nm

jeez louise.

Oh, there are a lot of ways to make them pay. My husband (sm) - Texan

thought of an idea, which I'm sure Trump probably already thought of, and mailed it to his campaign. I can't really remember the details,and he is outside mowing the lawn, so I will be back as soon as he can refresh my old and tired memory. He worked for a company here in Texas that mostly had illegals working there and some of the tricks they would pull to get extra $$ were unbelievable. I will repost as soon as he gives my brain a jog.
