He said it again and again and again and again, a dozen or a hundred times on the campaign trail. It was one of his favorite little rhetorical call and response routines with the Maggots.
Benedict Donald: And who's gonna pay for it?
Maggots: Mexico!!!
So why even bother with these "negotiations." Let the great deal maker practice his "art" with Mexico, and get the Mexicans to pay like he said they would.
Problem solved.
Seriously: we should stick this in his face every chance we get. Mexico! Get Mexico to pay like you said they would. End of discussion.

He also said he's already building the wall, several times, and that he's already built the wall. He just tweeted that people have not been able to get through our newly built walls.
Colbert pointed out that tRump's problem is that he has to say we built the wall to satisfy the people who voted for him in 2016, but he also has to say we need to build the wall to get people to vote for him in 2020. He needs a wall that both does and does not exist.
Double think. Shroedinger's cat. He'll tell any lie, any time, even if it contradicts the last lie he told, as long as it's convenient for him to tell that lie at the moment, in order to explain away some inconvenient reality based truth.
