Trump On Mexicos Response To THe Wall: "Now the wall just got taller."
THe Blaze ^ | 2/10/16 | Blaze

Posted on 02/10/2016 7:25:04 AM PST by DeathBeforeDishonor1

Former Mexican President Felipe Calderón told CNBC Saturday that his country would not contribute “a single cent” to the building of Donald Trump’s proposed wall.

“Mexican people, we are not going to pay any single cent for such a stupid wall!” Calderón, who served as president from 2006 to 2012, said. “And it’s going to be completely useless.”

“The first loser of such a policy would be the United States,” he added. “If this guy pretends that closing the borders to anywhere either for trade [or] for people is going to provide prosperity to the United State, he is completely crazy.”

Trump appeared on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” Tuesday and offered a response to Calderón’s comments.

“I heard the head of Mexico said ‘no way,’ and I said, ‘Now the wall just got taller,” the Republican candidate told “Morning Joe” hosts.

I would prefer someone who holds the verbal fire and actually does something. And crawling in the sewer with opponents seeing who can hurl the most vulgar insults is not a strategy.... unless you intend to live in the sewer.

Ditto for me. I just want the wall built. If Trump can Mexico to pay for it all the better.

We need a double wall. The interstitial space should be landmined to high hell, and have automatic targeting 50 al machine guns to take out any living critter who illegally enters the space.

That’s still better than what any of these other guys are going to do.

I’m glad you can read minds. I don’t believe in riling up your opponent before the battle. Look how that worked out for the Panthers.

“Mexico is going to pay for it through tariffs and fees”

So is Trump just going to point his finger and make that happen? Might be able to do that in the business world, but that’s not how it works in Washington.

Why do you people always look at the slang definition first?

Huh? English is my first language. I understand both the standard and substandard versions.

And this "you people...." form of address is wearying.

“Can his Trump or his supporters not speak or post without crude language?”

Polite was ignored. Did you miss the last election where the GOP flipped us the finger less than a week later after we gave them the win?

“and certainly more vulgar. Can his Trump or his supporters not speak or post without crude language? Ill buy you a thesaurus”

I agree! I think he brings out the worst in people. Men who would never put up with others saying such language to their wife or children are so giddy when Trump uses such language in public speeches. The fact is that those who use that kind of language betray a lack of good raising! As I have said before, it is a window into the minds and souls!

I would prefer to , but thats assuming we are fighting who respect rules. Our enemy is not.

There is a whole media we are up against and incindiary statements especially mocking liberal ideas...cuts thru the firewall the media throws up. Now everyone will be talking about this. We win then.

We’ve had enough Rules of Engagement that only help the enemy. This is war and if it’s being fought in the gutter then you should look away and let us win. When it’s over we will all be better off.

Freepers have been using foul language long before a Trump came on the scene.

And I went on record deploring it in 2010. Link above.

I don’t care if Mexico pays for it, Trump is full of crap on that anyway. But I’ll be happy for my tax dollars going to building the wall, as long as it gets done.

Me too. The savings in the long run would be huge. What I would like to see is Trump stop all welfare money going to illegals, a large processing fee for illegals sending money to Mexico, stop federal monies to sanctuary cities and many other ways. I think our wall could be paid for pretty quickly.

OK Enjoy your time in the sewer. I hope our country can climb out eventually.

BTW a battle plan is more effective when not telegraphed to the enemy firs.

Mexico has no say. And they pay by us taking a cut of wire transfers going south and other fees.

If they're supposed to be footing the bill then I imagine they have some say.

Maybe Mr. Mackie can help....



Step 1: Instead of a__ say buns, like "kiss my buns" or "you're a buns hole"

Step 2: Instead of s___ say poo, as in "bull poo", "poo head" and this "poo is cold"

Step 3: With b____ drop the t because bich is Latin for generosity

Step 4: Dont say f___ any more because f___ is the worst word that you can say

So just use the word mmmkay!

Its more than silence and polite lies. You are being disingenuous, because there was no more bluster from Trump than the Mexican launched first.
And what he actually did was show resolve, which is the exact opposite of what the others do,,,, like go to the border to hand out soccer balls to the invaders.

It they're supposed to be paying for it.
