Trump!

I haven't been paying close attention to everything Trump has said, so is it true he wants to build a wall along the border to secure it?

IDK but I like the idea. Hell we'll get Mexicans to build it. Just make sure they work from the south side of the wall

not only that but he said he would shut down all trade with mexico into the united states until mexico built the wall at their expense and secured the border from their side and if they didn't want to do that, then he would cut all ties and trade with mexico permanently.

I do agree with him this isn't an American problem, its a Mexican problem from not securing the borders and actually encouraging illegals to cross into the united states.

the immigration problem is just like the drug problem in that you cant stop illegal drugs as long as there is a big demand for them and likewise you cant stop illegal border crossings unless both sides of the border are working equally hard to stop it. the US cannot secure the border by itself, mexico must actively help to secure it from their side too.

I'm sure that's going to work well. Then what's he going to do, load all 11 million illegals that are in the country right now on buses and take them back to Mexico?

If he thought it was doable he would. but you can bet your butt that there would be no release of any illegal aliens that are charged w/ a crime.
