Do not allow money transfers by illegals working in the US to Mexico; or any money transfers in fact.

Start deporting the millions of their mestizos who are here illegally. When Mexico is inundated with their own people coming back, they’ll be whistling a different tune. Border cities will save billions of dollars in the care, feeding, educating, medical care and incarceration of thousands of Mexican citizens that we have been stuck with by unconstitutional government decrees.

I am not sure people understand what a huge deal this tweet is.

You do not speak like this to other world leaders unless you are ready for war of some type. Mexico's president was trying to save face with his people and look macho,expecting NAFTA negotiations to go quietly, but his last couple of tweets all pretty much saying the same thing, this last one ended up being one to far.

Trump from a position of greater power, with his tweet has left Mexico backed into a corner now having to agree with Trump to go forward or die a horrible financial death when they hang on a thread anyway. Their whole economy is dependent on us, including drug money. He just threatened do destroy them unless they cave.

“When Mexico is inundated with their own people coming back,”

They need to realize those people have had years of protesting the government under their belts. If they are forced back to Mexico, they could become very nasty for the government to deal with.

They've had years of throwing tantrums while a sympathetic administration looked the other way. How they'll react to head busting and going into jail and waiting months or years for an arraignment is a different matter.

Course, a lot of them are already aligned with drug cartels, so they may have their ducks together.

There is this blind gossip item
http://blindgossip.com/?p=83192#more-83192

My guess is that it is about George Clooney and his Tequila business.

Let’s see if he comes out as a SJW over NAFTA

[Never seen this before with international diplomatic speech.]

It takes a NON-DIPLOMAT to be an effective DIPLOMAT.

[But what will the white house staff do with the sombrero party favors and bean burritos?]

Send them to JEB. He has the guacamole bowls.

Imagine Presidente Jeb or Presidente Mario. Total amnesty, additional money transfers to Mexico, and no attempt to secure the borders. Trump has saved America from a near death experience and is Making America Great Again!

Yep - and they "threaten" Trump by saying they may drop out of NAFTA - Priceless!

He is very sure when he says we will get them to pay for the wall.....

Nieto has canceled the meeting; he took the “hint” from Trump and bailed. Trump wins again by putting Nieto on the spot and saving El Presidente from nasty protests and such from his own citizens..
