When Trump said he'd make Mexico pay for the wall he meant through increased tariffs, obviously not getting them to voluntarily pay for it. I mean, it's easy to argue against increased tariffs to pay for a wall, but I guess even easier to argue against a strawposition.

Also this article is about some Iowa representative that I've never even heard of proposing something. Not Trump anyway.

That's upside down. Tariffs increase the cost of imported goods for US citizens, not the Mexican citizens. We can't impose a tariff on goods sold to Mexico, we can only increase the price. None of that is workable.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
