A lot of folks don't recall (I don't blame you if you don't) that Trump visited Mexico when he was a candidate, he acted respectful and such when he was in the country, but once he was back in the US he started with his crap again.

After that visit, we had no reason to trust Trump's word.

Uh. I'm not even sure how to reply to this. Honest citizens don't want anything to do with the cartels. It's hard for the police and military to fight back, especially when they can just do a drive-by shooting or toss explosive devices at people and buildings and vanish without a trace.

> Also, what would Trump do if Mexico made a few holes in the fence? Declare war?

People who cross illegally already do that. They cut fences, dig holes underground, jump over with ladders or even just a rope...

The wall is pointless.
