He meant that what Meximess would lose in income from his policies would pay for the wall. Not that they would write a check or send a pallet load of cash to DC. The dumb and blind will never get it.
I think the simple minded did not understand what Trump meant when he said "Mexico will pay for it". Idiots like former Mexican Prez Fox took it literally and said he wasn't paying for the f'ing wall.

Agree: Eliminates the "checks in the mail" run around.

Yes. Mexico will pay for it through tariffs on Mexican products. The dumb and blind will pay increased costs for all products all the while believing that Mexico is paying for the wall.
Maybe I missed your point?[8D]

If you are implying that the average consumer will end up paying, that may be partially true short term. The lack of cheap labor will force business to pay better, and there will be less bleeding of the welfare system so it actually costs less for the average taxpayer.
Money that used to be payed to illegal labor, will be paid to legitimate American workers and taxed, and the money will not flow untaxed into Mexico but stay and spent in the USA.
Instead of companies moving across the border for cheap labor, Trump intends to tax the merchandise on the way back in.
Many of his ideas needs fine tuning, but the principles are sound economic windfalls for United Statesers, and the cost of the wall will be diverted back to the Mexican Subjects to pay, not the United Stateser citizen.
Mexico will have to PAY for their own indigent [;)]

You get it. Plus all the money illegals are sending home to Messico will begin to dry up.
Shut down all the Social Security payments going to Mexico too. US Citizen expats will have their payment deposited to a Bonded US Bank North of the Border to be forwarded to them.
Now The media Is picking Apart Who Pays For the Wall

The wall has been paid for- The construction has been blocked for years.
After Obama got elected it was dismantled. Personally- I would like to see this come back on a larger scale along the coastline of known drug trade and unsecured areas of the broader.
