The country's currency hit a new record low as votes were being tallied, suffering a drop of 11%. By early Wednesday morning, the peso had regained some ground, but it was still trading 8% lower.

Mexico's central bank will hold a joint press conference with the country's finance ministry on Wednesday morning...

Yup, deport them all, and with 35% of gub’mint employees who promised to quit (I loved that story a few months ago) if Trump won, hell, we might start winning even more elections!

Maybe we’ll get lucky and all these celebs will also move out of country, and take their crybully bullhorns with them.

Hopefully the dems days of buying votes with welfare and freebies will come to an end (still going to be a fight, plenty of GOPe love to hand out them goodies too).

No real need for this, Mexico is on of the largest silver producing nations in the world, just back their currency with silver and mint new 50 peso one ounce coins, problem solved. Point being that sound currency is the solution for many of Mexico’s problems, fiat currencies always fail.

They know their gravy train from us is coming to a screeching halt.

Mexico is a country with plentiful natural resources, there is no real reason for them to be a poor country. Their own corrupt class system and government are what keeps most citizens of Mexico in poverty.

If we had not elected Trump we were well on our way to having the same issues here.
