Mexico Border Closing : Regardless of the mess it would create, what can the President order?

He’s gonna say he got tough with the three Mexico’s and he is gonna table closing the border for now.

His base will eat it up.

That is still not self defense. Mexico is a sovereign nation entitled to defend its territory by force. The Mexicans would be the defenders.
