It would be deeply, deeply ironic if Mexico decided to build a wall to keep US out.

Tightened up visa requirements, making it require an act of Congress to be able to visit Cancun.

I predict a brexit-like reaction from the alt-right.

"I wanted a wall but not against me!"

wait but, if Mexico builds a wall and pays for it, wouldn't Trump just claim it as a yuge win?

This was his plan the whole time.

That’s only if the guards are ours; they won’t be in this scenario.

Somehow Mexico's wall would be racist and an affront to American "Freedoms".

The right would be calling for war before the first brick was laid.

Irony is long dead. This headline could easily be real fucking news.

How many politicians have cartels assassinated in Mexico again?

[-] Guy_Fieris_Hair@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I think we need some cartels...

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 3 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

The cartels aren't assassinating people that don't fight political corruption.

[-] Rolder@reddthat.com 1 points 4 months ago

Well, they also assassinate journalists, environmentalists, other notable activists too

[-] Guy_Fieris_Hair@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago

Journalists..... maybe... but the rest of this makes them sound pretty mean.
