cjf39 Pay for the WALL, Mexico, you know you want to.

The United States takes the necessary measures to prevent the Corona virus

Mexico is going to build a wall

Should have paid for the wall

Mexico should build a wall

Now they don't want people crossing the border. Ironic.

It looks like Mexico will build and pay for a wall. Keep out the dirty Americans

The Mexican government....”They have caravans! Thousands of germs...they’re killers, the worst. Where is the wall that Mexico paid for?”😂😂😂

And here Trump warned us of the diseases the Mexicans would bring with them. Ironic, isn’t it?

Chính phủ các bạn nên có biện pháp kết hợp đồng bộ siết chặt và kiểm soát nghiêm ngặt hạn chế mức thấp nhất lây lan dịch bệnh không để con số nhiễm và tử vong leo than , và hãy đẩy lùi coronavirus

I’ll bet the “news leaders” in Canada aren’t counting USA license plates.

Guatemala is already in dire straights. Bodies are being placed in hospital hall ways.

It has been an epicenter. People doesn’t notice because trump doesn’t allow the testing to be done in the beginning. US is responsible for majority of imported cases in many countries.

So, need a Wall to keep US out...

Mexico should build the wall and pay for it. To protect themselves from the USA.

How the table has turned. Now Mexico needs a wall to keep Americans out! Winning

Thats racist

Quick, build a wall
