The democrats' message this cycle was literally, "Trump doesn't actually want to do anything about immigration, he just wants to campaign on it. We're the ones who are actually going to build the wall, he's all talk," and now they're all suprisied that they lost a bunch of Latino votes. Who could've predicted this?
Assuming this is real, it makes sense. It's a risky gamble, because if Trump actually does what he says he'll do, they're cooked
I think we also assume most Mexicans care about the wall when that isn't a factor for the vast majority. Most come and get their court dates and are capable of passing the boarder legally.
