While I love the idea, at the rate the peso's been dropping, I doubt that Mexico could afford a down payment.

Heh. Apparently, the alternate idea is for the free market in the form of Mexican currency traders to buy it if Mexico can't.

"The notion made the rounds this week after the central bank revealed it had already blown through $2 billion of reserves in a largely futile effort to shield the peso from a steady stream of anti-Mexico Tweets from Donald Trump."
. . .
"For Mexican currency traders, paying $12 billion to rid themselves of Trump’s megaphone of stupid would make them national heroes."
