Excerpts from Trump Cabinet Meeting June 21, 2018:
So we’ve created, and they’ve created, and they’ve let it happen — a massive child-smuggling industry. That’s exactly what it’s become. Traffickers — if you think about this — human traffickers are making a fortune. It’s a disgrace.
These alien minors were separated and sent all the way up here alone. But they really came up with coyotes. You know what a coyote is. Not good. These are not good people. They were sent up here with human traffickers because the Democrat-supported policies have allowed this to happen.
They [Mexico] encourage people, frankly, to walk through Mexico and go into the United States because they’re drug traffickers, they’re human traffickers, they’re coyotes.

Trump drops a TRUTH BOMB.
Most of these "families" are from Guatemala, Nicaragua, and Honduras. They are of mixed native/Spanish decent and speak Spanish, JUST LIKE MEXICO. How does MEXICO treat them at their SOUTHERN BORDER? Mexico is the most LOGICAL country to take in these "refugees." WHAT IS MEXICO'S EXCUSE?

Right -- and what's US/CIA foreign policy toward Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Honduras?
In most cases, US/CIA is supporting dictators -- or running coups against democratically elected officials of these countries.
Drug War is being used to intervene in the affairs of other nations --
US/CIA works to spread violence all over the world -- when they're not busy with Empire and creating "illegal wars of aggression" then they're trying to warmonger and selling weapons to other nations.
TRUMP now is trying to get approval to sell more guns abroad!!!
This in spite of millions on the streets in the US standing 'AGAINST GUN VIOLENCE."
We need Trump's WALL to fall on him.
This is a "White Male Supremacist" administration.

Mexico is a completely corrupt shithole dump assbackwards country. Why would anyone want to chance going there even on a holiday anymore. So many tourists being murdered. Government there is owned by the drug cartels. Cartel murders are sadistic and people chopped up and left in the streets or hung above the overpasses. Cesspool.

If this is true, why did Central American parents send over 100,000 UNACCOMPANIED CHILDREN across Mexico's southern border to trudge over 2000 miles through the length of Mexico to try to enter the U.S. during the Obama administration? A Forbes Richest man at the top of the list for several years was a Mexican named Carlos Slim. He is worth billions and has controlling interest in the New York Times. Mexico is rich in natural resources : petroleum, silver, copper, gold, lead, zinc, natural gas, timber. Not to mention beautiful scenery for tourism.
If the government is as bad as you say, then they qualify for the LIBYA TREATMENT. Let's return MEXICO to the citizens. NO MORE BORDER ISSUES.

Well said I agree. Yes, absolutely Mexico should not be as dirt poor as it is with everything they have on the land. Really makes you wonder. Carlos Slim yet another character to the Frank Guistra and Slick Willy camp. It would be amazing to see Mexico rid itself of the corruption, drug cartels and crime and let the people prosper.
