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?

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.
