Three Ways Mexico Could Pay for the Wall

President Trump's long-promised border wall is sure to have a steep price tag. And time and again, he's vowed Mexico will pay for it.

Officials south of the border say they're not interested in shelling out a single peso for the structure, which could cost more than $20 billion. The President's latest budget proposal earmarks $1 billion for the wall, a first installment that Trump has said will get things going before Mexico eventually chips in.

1. Tapping into money immigrants send home

2. Seizing money from drug cartels

3. A border tax.

With that being said, can Mexico find a way to pay for the wall, to where they could have a say, and will they be able to do it in time before Trump starts building it? There is a lot of talk about how they could possibly do so, but there is a lot to be discussed and that goes into effect.
