If we sent our military 10 miles into Mexico to set up a border zone without Mexico’s permission, I bet he and all his cronies would suddenly decide that Mexico’s borders should have been respected.

---

Mexico has (or at least had) such border zone. Except for Baja California, Mexico has a Frontier Zone along its border with the U.S. If you drive more than 20 km south of the border you will be stopped at a checkpoint and a have to get a visa allowing you and your car to travel further into Mexico. So the Mexicans have already established the checkpoints for our military’s use.
