Sounds like a plan.
Let's make a deal....

This has been discussed and wouldn't work a multitude of reasons.

Another prediction of something with no chance?

The legal and regulatory apparatus doesn't exist for one.
Money order companies are not banks either and therefore not subject to CIP and KYC protocols of banks under the Patriot Act. Something they would surely fight as it destroys their business model would be second.
Finally, in order for this to be even remotely feasible all international wire transfers would have to be monitored to prevent off-shoring through a third vendor... refer to one.

If there is a will... there is a way. Just because it has not been done... does not mean it won't be. Remember it's now America First... or will be after 1-20-17.

Again this post is completely devoid of reality.
We would create the infrastructure to monitor every single wire that is sent internationally... knowing it still won't work due to the third point I made... at a cost of what would end up being less than us building the damn wall and paying for it in the first place.
These are facts... platitudes don't negate them.

This would work like a champ. And if there isn't law that allows this.(which I highly doubt) with total control a new law allowing it will be passed in no time. I'm for cutting off all wire transfers to Mexico from private citizens until they cut the check for the wall. They would do it in ten minutes

Balderdash! Just keep the legislation to 20,000+ pages and don't have anyone read it until after it's passed and then go for it! If we passed Obamination Care with such a strategy, we can certainly get it to work to build a wall.

You Liberals Love Taxes and Regulation. Hell I have over $30 a month add to my phone bill due to them. So I'm sure a work-a-round will be found. All transaction are already tracked... a bit of code added is all it would take.
So Trump can repeal 5 job killing Reg.'s (maybe add in the Obama Phone Reg. that will reduce my phone bill by $5 a month) and add the Border Wall Buck Catcher Bill...

For the last effing time... I'm not a liberal... I'm less liberal than the President-Elect you all supported.
This will not work. You can't just "add" it to the Patriot Act.
Instead of responding with stupidity open google... and search the subject.
Getting Mexico to pay for the wall this way would be more expensive than just paying for the wall ourselves...

Trump is all about optics. Sometimes that works.

switch to Bitcoin
it'll take the GOP a decade to understand the concept
I found out about bitcoin from one of my kids. He used to get paid in it when no one heard of it.
lots of ways around this.
The real issue for Trump is what if Mexico refuses to play ball?
repatriating millions of people against their will??? Mexico may say no. Possession is 90% of the law
