Can the President just levy a tax on all the Western Union money going to and from Mexico?
1-2 percent ought to do it.

Maybe. I think if it is crafted carefully an EO could get it done.
Better to have congress do the fee.
Now that’s an idea.
No. The executive has no power over taxes.
There’s, you know, separation of powers and such.
1. I thought the funding had already been voted for-—as far back as possibly 2006. IF this Congress is getting tight fisted now- they will have alot to answer for to the voters in a very short time.
2. Trump wants to have Government/Private investments in his administration.
How long would it take Trump to round up investors & BUILD THE WALL-—and pay back private investors with the money the USA will save by NOT paying for the costs of the illegals being here?
3. A TAX of 50% or more on every single transfer of money out of this country—Western Union & anywhere else would raise the necessary money within a year.
4. A GO FUND ME page would raise the money by July 4th, IMO.
Obama put a 25% duty on all tires made in China-—This 1-2% is paltry. MUST be more.
Go after all employers of illegals. Offer them a plea bargain that involves their paying money to build the wall.
