I think we should literally take all of the illegals, ship em back to Mexico & make em pay for their stay.


Or else


And also watch them build the wall while America is the Forman.

Pretty obvious we are bitching about what he didn’t do.

Face the cold hard facts, Trumps failures are the exact reason why the left is as strong as they are. It’s going to take more than promises and tough talk to convince me round 2 won’t be more of the same.

We could make them pay for the wall if we had a backbone. We piss away our leverage. It’s how all Empires die.

You pay for it by taxing remittances. That’s how Mexico pays for it. Only a smooth brain Ron bot would think it meant the Mexican government would cut a check.


I like how trump’s proclamations need further explanation from his cult.

I have to assume they know this and are choosing to be ignorant. Then again, they probably are truly retarded.

I wish the search function was worth a damn here as plenty of Trumpfans fully expected Mexico to pay for it and they weren't talking about remittances.


Oh I believe you. Unfortunately this world has no shortages of dumbasses regardless of their political affiliation.

He never said why and he never said how.

It was just a sound byte for the Trumpkins. He also said it would be easy to repeal and replace Obamacare.

In Trump's defense McCain was the bitch that resulted in Obamacare not being repealed. Partially because Trump relentlessly attacked McCain and it was a spite vote. I hate McCain for that but that is also a fault of Trump.

Morons took it literally but the basis was remittances.

Nearly $30 Billion in remittances from the HEB customer service/western union to Mexico. Slow this by a quarter and you pay for the wall.

Mexico actively subverts our sovereignty and that is the rationale for having them pay for it - and if Trump had followed through on his promise to tax remittances, that would have happened. Taxing remittances was fully in his power, by the way. It's another thing that he never followed through on.

Cool. Then say that, and describe what you’d do about that, rather than being a gd liar on the matter.

What he was referring to was cutting the hundreds of millions in subsidies going to Mexico and redirecting that money to building the wall.

He explained it but the MSM feed the narrative of "Trump want to seize Mexicans taxes and saving to build his wall." to their low -T mashed potatoes brain followers and like good little NPCs they downloaded it and ran around repeating the line every chance they got.

I mean look at this thread. It's still making the rounds 7 years later. That's the definition of ignorance, and willful ignorance at that. But I expect nothing less from brain dead liberal.
