Here are the quick facts about the USA — Mexican border and what typically happens regarding the local movement of peoples between both nations, with Northern Mexico becoming integrated into the USA.

It would not surprise me if Northern Mexico joined the United States by the end of this century.

Especially with Hispanics most likely becoming the dominant ethnic group in the USA in this century, even with that stated, by that time, those people will see themselves as just American first and only America first in regards to their views.

The USA is a great nation that knows how to turn its citizens into Americans, and they have been successful for over 240 years.

Quick Facts about the U.S.-Mexico Border.

The 1,951-mile U.S.-Mexico border is the busiest in the world.

The southern border allows more than 300 million people, approximately 90 million cars, and 4.3 million truck crossings annually.

Also, according to the geopolitical analysis of Peter Zihan, without Mexico, the USA would face 10% inflation.

But for today, the topic is illegal immigration, or I should say migration, with people fleeing persecution, war, bad governments and poor economic opportunities.
