People mock it because there's already a wall at the Mexican border and the number of mexican immigrants we've been getting has been on the decline. The only reason there was an issue at all with mexicans in the states were because there were so many here illegally, not paying taxes, not taking care of property, not bound by our laws because they were skirtting the system. Enough action has been taken that illegal mexicans are nearly a non-issue now. A lot of them have their citizenship, have been deported, or are working on their citizenship.
So basically, by saying he's going to build a wall between the states and Mexico, then saying he's going to make the Mexican gov pay for it, he comes off as this absurd racist who thinks he has way more power than he actually does.
