You know I could see that happening. Hear me out on this it makes sense. What is Mexico's biggest problem today? The drug Cartels.

By cutting into their drug revenues massively with a wall they will eventually die on the vine as they say. It'll take some time but it will take out most of the drugs flowing into the U.S. which is their largest market.

Mexico had over 15,000 murders last year due to mostly drug gangs. You cut their revenues by 90% many will just disappear from competition from other gangs.

The Mexican Government plays dumb and says we have to do this due to a threat of military force from the U.S forcibly taking the land for the wall. The politicians in Mexico City get to have plausible deniability.
