This would be awesome! And in a weird round 'about way, having "Mexico" pay for the wall! :laugh:
But no matter, his funds should be confiscated like we do with so many other criminals busted, and seize their funds and property. And instead of using them to purchase police cruisers or whatever it is that different regions use the funding for - use the seized funds to build the wall.
The money SHOULD be seized anyway. Saves American's from spending the money. A win win.

Rep. Vern Buchanan Supports Sen. Cruz's EL CHAPO Act to Pay For a Border Wall
Rep. Vern Buchanan (R-FL) announced that he will co-sponsor Sen. Ted Cruz’s (R-TX) "EL CHAPO" Act Monday, according to a press release from Buchanan’s press office.
“Guzman’s drug empire amassed an estimated $14 billion from narcotic sales responsible for destroying the lives of millions of Americans,” Buchanan said. “As President Trump looks to secure the southern border, Congress should pass this commonsense measure to use seized drug money to staunch the flow of drugs and violence into our communities.”
The act, which stands for the “Ensuring Lawful Collection of Hidden Assets to Provide Order,” will allocate funds confiscated from the recently convicted drug lord Joaquin Archivaldo Guzman Loera (El Chapo) to border security measures, including funding for a U.S.-Mexico border wall. The bill was originally introduced back in April 2017 but was reintroduced by Cruz two weeks ago.

“This is how we can fund President @realDonaldTrump's proposed border wall,” Cruz tweeted on Feb. 13. “Pass my #ELCHAPOAct and make El Chapo pay for it!”

On Feb. 12, El Chapo was found guilty on all 10 counts against him by the New York courthouse. He was notorious for his large-scale drug smuggling and cartel operations since the 1980’s. El Chapo pleaded not guilty during his three-month trial. He’ll be sentenced at the end of June this year.
