Mexican Archdiocese calls Mexican companies willing to work on the wall 'traitors to the homeland'

The Catholic Archdiocese of Mexico has labeled any Mexican companies that are even thinking of investing in Donald Trump’s wall of hate “traitors to the homeland”:

In a provocative editorial, the country's biggest Archdiocese sought to increase pressure on the government to take a tougher line on companies aiming to profit from the wall, which has strained relations between Trump and the Mexican government.

"Any company intending to invest in the wall of the fanatic Trump would be immoral, but above all, its shareholders and owners should be considered traitors to the homeland," said the editorial in Desde la fe, the Archdiocese's weekly publication.

On Tuesday, Economy Minister Ildefonso Guajardo warned firms it would not be in their "interests" to participate in the wall. But the editorial accused the government of responding "tepidly" to those eyeing the project for business.

In a meeting with steel companies last week, the nation’s economy secretary warned that “Mexicans would judge and base future buying decisions on ‘which brands are loyal to the national identity, and which are not.’”

But the archdiocese warned in its editorial, titled "Treason against the Homeland,” that the government has still been responding too "tepidly”  to companies that are considering working with a president who maligned an entire nation as criminals and “rapists."
