Interesting article on the ability for the president to build the wall using the military and no need for emergency declaration.

Not to derail, but economic sanctions seem to be a powerful tool. I would think that the right amount and type of pressure on Mexico and they could and would police the border from their side. Just have to push the right buttons to make it in their best interest. If we don't have enough political capital to pull that off we've got much bigger problems not too far down the road.

Thankyou, point well taken. I'm little bus slow. It makes sense, let's give it a try.
