For the record.

We should open the borders.

That’s a silly enough idea that I’m almost certain it’s sarcasm.

I think we should donate a firearm and a couple boxes of ammo with a suggestion they should go home and clean up their own mess instead of bringing it to the USA to every illegal we deport.

Fast and Furious part 2 then?

We were regulars to Mexican beaches for many, many years. No more.
Between the Cartel’s wanting to kill you, and the shysters trying to rip you off, and I’m including Mexican LEO in the shake down artist category, we will never return unless drastic changes are made.
The US state department has been issuing travel alerts for some of the most popular beach resort areas.

Part of the allure of the Mexican vacation experience:

Immediately cease any and all financial aid to Mexico via Executive Order (Trump will receive a LOT of liberal flack on that).
Mexico isn't our friend any more than Hezbollah, The Muslim Brotherhood or Hamas.
U.S. provides aid worth $320 million a year to Mexico; experts say ... and,
Trump proposes deep U.S. spending cuts in Mexico, Central America ...

If the aid is appropriated by Congress, Trump can't unilaterally cancel it.

If the republican congress quits obstructing him, he can.

Bush and Obama already tried this.

No, he can't. If you need me to explain the meaning of the word "unilaterally," I can do that. If the Congress works with him, that's not unilateral.

EOs cannot directly violate legislation. See, e.g., the fight over defunding sanctuary cities: because the money was appropriated by Congress, and the allocation was made without regard to cooperating with federal immigration authorities, the Executive can't simply cut off those funds based on that.

I wasn't talking about EO's. If the republican congress would quit obstructing President Trump, specifically the Senate under Mitch McConnell, this country's financial aid to Mexico would cease to exist, but the politics of the senate are that they want and need to appease the mexicans in order to garner votes.
How could that happen? Hispanic employment under Trump is at historical lows, as well as unemployment among the black community.
The Senate is a blocking point in Trump's administration. There are over 400 bills from the house waiting on the Senate to consider.
That is my statement.
