He's trying to do something roundly terrible....firstly by building a dumbasss wall that no-one....no-one will pay for. Secondly, by threatening to -not- pay for the wall by extorting a foreign government for a paltry sum of money that will not cover construction in the slightest, with the threat of confiscating money from the poor - legal immigrants, illegal..doesn't matter. All with a legally questionable reading of the patriot act, whose language does not apply to the remittances in the first place even if it weren't questionable.....which can be defeated by simply opening an account at bank of america, or any other bank which operates in both countries freely. Deposit here, withdraw there. Then, the icing on this shit cake is, ofc, that any success in curbing immigration of any kind would only mean that there we no remitttances to confiscate with which to fund the wall they're totally building...and totally not squandering on "planning". These walls never materialize, but the money sure manages to go somewhere before people forget about them.
It's already a national embarrassment, regardless of whether or not -anything- comes of it. All of this....all of this...... because "Boo! Brown People!".
