We need a border tax and we need it now. The globalists have had their way for WAY too long.

I was at first skeptical of the “reality TV” Presidency, but I have become convinced that Trump can pull it off. We will never have another one like Trump, so we better enjoy it while it lasts.

Here is a logical start point: If the U.S. provides any type foreign aid to Mexico, start with that......

Sounds like the words of the Resident Small Thinker.

Don't know either, huh?

During he campaign, The President said he would not forewarn the enemy what action the US was going to do. That might be a good idea in matters such as these. - Don’t telegraph you punches - is always a good strategy.

The simplest way to have Mexico pay for the wall is a high tax on remittances sent by immigrants (legal and illegal) to their families in Mexico. No negotiations required.

Most Freepers can envision how it will work.

It’s not rocket science.

Isn't it logical to ask Mexico to pay for half the cost of the Wall?

We pay the other half

I would tell Mexico to pay up now before I change my mind

I guess I don't have your ability to see things in different ways. Humor me.

I have come to believe that the wall must be build on the Mexican side of the border. We need to conquer a strip a mile or so deep on their side of the border. That annexed territory will be under military control and can be secured by the US Army not fettered by the posse comitatus laws

Start with a 25% tax on remittances to anywhere; allow non-Mexicans to file for a rebate of the tax.
