I think we tried that years ago . . .

I doubt citizens would be queing up by the thousands to run from a poltically and economically stable situation - why Mexico is neither is IMO a discussion very much worth having at this point in history.

Oh--then I guess that doesn't work.

You seem to think a nice game of 'aren't foreigners awful' would be productive. Why?

I don't know how you come to that. I am interested in the Mexican political and economic situation - don't know a lot about it.

Yes, I hate those foreigners. I married a Bulgarian, employ 3 Uzbeks, 1 Turk, and 2 Nigerians and best friends are Russian. I just like to keep my enemies closer . . .

You're going-in assumption seemed to be 'boy is their big shit wrong with them.' How one feels about individuals one knows doesn't ever relate strongly tto how one feels about big groups in the abstract.

Wapo then and Wapo now are two different organs.

Wapo's Trump anxiety bedevils it.
