If for any reason it becomes necessary, we will close our southern border.

He means it too. I can cite a few examples where Trump backtracked, but not many. When you research [Trump backtrack] You get a load of smelly liberal crap. He did say he would release the FBI/DOJ documents then decided he preferred having leverage.
He doesn't bluff and world leaders who aren't American Democrats know this. If Trump closes the southern border that means a lot more disruption to Mexico's economy than it does for us. And it doesn't matter the criticism that befalls him, he's already borne it all. More criticism, more flipping out is just more of the same. And he's criticized no matter what.
They said he wouldn’t pull out of the Paris Climate Treaty, he did. 
They said he wouldn’t withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, he did. 
They said he wouldn’t implement global Steel/Aluminum tariffs, he did.   
They said he wouldn’t dare withdraw from the G7 agreement in Canada, he did.   
They said he couldn’t get Canada to agree to a new NAFTA agreement, he did. 
They said his economic plans wouldn’t deliver 3% GDP growth, they are. 
They said he couldn’t pull-off a unity accord between North and South Korea, he did.



That's why Washington Times is reporting Mexico will asylum seekers as they wait U.S. court dates.
Andrés Manuel López Obrador, Mexico’s president-elect, plans to implement a policy known as “Remain in Mexico” after taking office next month, his top domestic policy official told The Washington Post. 
Called a “short-term solution” by Ms. Sánchez Cordero, the pending policy change is expected to earn praise north of the border from President Trump, who has vowed to reform federal immigration policies since launching his 2016 campaign.

So now our future composition as a nation is at the mercy of Mexico? Great. With the Wall up we wouldn't have to give a fig what Mexico's next policy shift - based on a change of corazon - could be.

Mexico has already denied the original reporting.

Obviously the situation is fluid.

ric, the deal is part of Trump's strategy. Take some of the pressure off us in exchange for some benificence.

The more razor wire the Army strings, the fewer Indians cross the border. Giving Mexico a little quid pro quo just sweetens the deal all around.

This Migrant Treaty is another Dr Evil/UN production and Trump is handling it the way he handled NoKo and Red China - get as many people whose ox is gored on your side and present a united front. The Mexicans don't like these people any more than we do.
