Imaginary walls can be as tall as they want to be!

 

[Loxley]

The big take away from this election cycle will be you can be bigoted as fuck and ride high and far

As long as your bigotry is fun and entertaining to the media and a shockingly large chunk of the American public.

 

[JayDotZee]

Everyone in Mexico: "LOL"

Fake edit: Besides, wasn't he complaining that he got fucked over by someone in Mexico on a business or deal? That's basically the people that runs the country! He will have the whole country fucked and in the end the US will have to pay for the, badly constructed, wall and "reparations". Mexican politicians love reparations.

 

[old]

Trump is the candidate we deserve. He is the embodiment of American "Fuck You" spirit.

 

[AlimNassor]

I wish Stewart or Colbert were still around. Trump running for President and being openly racist as fuck, Marc "I am a robot" Rubio malfunctioning, and Ted Cruz as that guy nobody likes.

 

[Laieon]

historically it did not work. china still got fucked by the nomads many times.

What those who built that wall didn't tell you is that they were going for the tourism dollars all along.

 

[FUME5]

Makes perfect sense.

 

[mreddie]

What if the wall isn't to keep them out but to keep us in Trumpmerica?

 

[The Faceless Master]

What's he gonna do about the underground tunnels?

underground walls

the wall just got lower too

 

[Astral/H3X]

historically it did not work. china still got fucked by the nomads many times.

That's the joke.

 

[Hellsing321]

historically it did not work. china still got fucked by the nomads many times.

Maybe if they hadn't been so lazy and finished the wall it would have worked.

 

[Alex_Mexico]

The only reason I'd like for Trump to win is to watch him try (and inevitably fail) at building that godforsaken non-wall of his. Especially with the Mexico paying for it part.

Pretty much. This shit isn't funny, but you wouldn't know that from the reaction of liberals.

 

[theignoramus]

What's he gonna do about the underground tunnels?

"Were gunna use so much technology to find those tunnels, great technology, incredible technology. And then were gunna take out the trash and dump it back into Mexico."

 

[gutter_trash]

in the other thread about Calderon; I just knew that his comments would have a reverse affect.

Trump gets a boost

[Spider from Mars]

Resurrect The Wall and have him guard the border. Nobody would dare cross.

 

[mdubs]

Trump could always promise free citizenship to anyone who helps build the wall.

Going to be hilarious when he makes the offer to Canadians to help him build the Canadian wall

 

[RDreamer]

Trevor Noah is doing a fine job, in my opinion.

 

[EatinOlives]

If his high walls are as good as his cheap ties that thing is gonna crumble within a week.

 

[Oppo]

your candidate goes too far!

your candidate doesn't go too far enough!

 

[Psychoward]

Trevor Noah is doing a fine job, in my opinion.

meh, he's okay but he played out the whole "trump wants to bang his daughter thing" for wayyyyyy too long

 

[Raxus]

I love this primary. I love it so much.

It is like a twilight zone episode except in reality.

 

[Basketball]

Come on man

that shit is funny

Spoiler

just what we need

 

[Wag]

But how deep is the wall Trump?

It will go the Earth's core.

 

[Feltrol]

Mexico ain't paying for shit. Get out, idiot.

This. Fuck you, Trump.

 

[Opto]

Even Wildlings got over the Wall

 

[Roo]

Hey Trump, we'll hire El Chapo to build tunnels too. 👌

 

[Futurematic]

Nah Trump loves his cheap labour. Although if he's President I suppose that problem is solved.

 

[Guevara]

Dude's like the principal from The Breakfast Club:

"Keep laughing, Mexico, you're up to 8 weeks of suspension! I'll have your ass here all summer!"

 

[Mariolee]

I wish Stewart or Colbert were still around. Trump running for President and being openly racist as fuck, Marc "I am a robot" Rubio malfunctioning, and Ted Cruz as that guy nobody likes.

What? Stephen is stilm around. Making fun of Trump is pretty much a Late Show staple!

 

[Gnome Scat]

That's an amazing response.

 

[timetokill]

Can't hate on that response. this election is incredible.

 

[FyreWulff]

literal escalation. just what you need in a president

 

[Robot Pants]

Could be the most funny thing he's said this whole election, and that's saying something hahaha

 

[IsntChrisL]

I was just wondering what Mexico's response was to this.

Now I'm imagining the hypothetical future where Trump is explaining why Mexico isn't paying for the wall. I wonder how well it would go over. This is such a weird election cycle.

 

[diablos991]

Pretty great response actually.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

I'm still not getting what the "...or else" part of his political posturing is, that will somehow convince Mexico to build the wall.

 

[rashbeep]

Stay trolling

 

[Chaos2Frozen]

historically it did not work. china still got fucked by the nomads many times.

That's the joke.

But it's not because of the wall failed, but rather because of corruption and betrayal.

 

[And_Gignac]

Nope. Still no money for you Señor Trump.

 

[SeanC]

Somebody needs to punch this gringo in the chalupas.

 

[adj_noun]

Kong's gonna STAY in Mexico.

 

[Operations]

He's literally proposing a big ass wall like the one in Game Of Thrones?

 

[Ogimachi]

Gotta hand it to him...lol

I'm still not getting what the "...or else" part of his political posturing is, that will somehow convince Mexico to build the wall.

From his website:

Mexico must pay for the wall and, until they do, the United States will, among other things: impound all remittance payments derived from illegal wages; increase fees on all temporary visas issued to Mexican CEOs and diplomats (and if necessary cancel them); increase fees on all border crossing cards – of which we issue about 1 million to Mexican nationals each year (a major source of visa overstays); increase fees on all NAFTA worker visas from Mexico (another major source of overstays); and increase fees at ports of entry to the United States from Mexico [Tariffs and foreign aid cuts are also options]. We will not be taken advantage of anymore.

 

[sangreal]

Beaten

 

[timetokill]

That's for the Canadian wall.


This one is more like the border wall of Megacity One.

 

[Sean*O]

What's he gonna do about the underground tunnels?

Sonar.

He possibly means Mexico will pay through taxation, maybe he has designs on repealing free trade.

 

[A Link to the Past]

I'm still not getting what the "...or else" part of his political posturing is, that will somehow convince Mexico to build the wall.

Seriously. I may be misreading the situation, but his answer of "we'll make it bigger" seems to be in response to "we're not going to give you money." It just sounds like Trump is 100% convinced that he'll be able to extort money from Mexico, and is willing to gamble money to make it happen. AKA: The cost of having a mediocre businessman in the Oval Office.

 

[d00d3n]

I love this. A mediocre person would have made the threat "The Wall Just Got More Expensive!". It is genius to respond like he did. Such powerful visual imagery with a new even higher wall. Trump is confirmed as the PR grand wizard.
