That the Mexicans must have won, because we certainly have no control over the border.

...But sensitivities about sovereignty surround every thorny issue involving Americans in Mexico. Can Americans buy land? Sometimes. Drill for oil? Never. Can American officers comb airports in Mexico? Yes. Carry guns as lawmen? No. Open and close the border at will? Well, they try...


No, they don't try.
The only thing American citizens are good for these days is siezing their earnings to prop up every half-witted scheme on earth.
