Gullible?? Have you heard what the Mexican President actually said (reported on CNN, not Fox of course) & how it completely contradicts what Trump said?

"Undocumented immigration from Mexico to the U.S. had its highest point 10 years ago and it has slowed down consistently, even to the point of being negative in a net effect at this point,” said Peña Nieto, referring to data that supports these claims. He added that Trump’s portrayal of the border as a one-way street is “a clearly incomplete version” that “doesn’t account for the illegal flow” of money and firearms that goes into Mexico from the United States.

“Every year, millions of dollars and weapons come in from the north that strengthen the cartels and other criminal organizations that generate violence in Mexico,” Peña Nieto pointed out, adding that criminals in the U.S. benefit from the sale of illegal drugs."

So, those are the facts but I realise that it likely will have zero effect on your opinion.

How does that contradict Trump? It sounds like Nieto wants the wall built to keep the weapons out. Maybe he'll even pay for it.
A lot of those weapons were supplied by Obama's govt, but it wouldn't have been diplomatic to say so.
