“Whether it is none of our business is none of your business.”

Whether or not it is none of my business? If it escalates into a a political battle when we are trying to stop the illegal immigration from that country over their rules which we have no call in, and they get angry and continue assisting and escalating illegals across the border like they have done before, it is goin to cost the US taxpayers millions possibly billions. Trying to force or threaten a country that has almost nothing and doesn’t care, will not work. Trump tried it with them before.

“President Trump on Thursday said he would impose a 5% tariff on all goods entering from Mexico unless it stopped the flow of illegal immigration to the United States, a dramatic escalation of his border threats that could have sweeping implications for both economies.

“The White House plans to begin levying the import penalties on June 10 and ratchet the penalties higher if the migrant flow isn’t halted. Trump said he would remove the tariffs only if all illegal migration across the border ceased, though other White House officials said they would be looking only for Mexico to take major action.”

And they didn’t.

Look at your history. Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Ukraine, Kosovo..and others that make a long list of things we lost people in for their cause problems. And with our media just looking for something to put this administrations long line of screwups on the public back burner, something like this would be a perfect ploy.

Is this none of my business? If it comes out of my wallet and people of this country are harmed by it when it effects no one in this country as long as we stay out of it, it should be none of your business either. It is their problem right or wrong. And again, every time we get into someone else’s business, one we have no say in, we pay a price. I’d rather not pay that and my input is my personal opinion with historical facts. So if you are going to argue a fact, we can talk. Otherwise if you saying I cannot have an opinion, one I do not force anyone to follow, then maybe you might want to read the first amendment. And I’ve earned the privilege of having an opinion. Plus this is typical liberal gibberish, If you can’t disprove the topic, try to smear the messenger. Don’t waste my time. I gave years off my life to this country so we might not be harmed. Your thinking is making it difficult to that effort and one by many just like me.

That is quite an imagination.

You seem to be saying that the media and the Biden administration are just waiting for a ploy like this to push a wag the dog conflict with Mexico. A graduate espouses Christian beliefs in a commencement speech and when the profs go after him for it that becomes the triggering event?

I think maybe the salt has fallen off of your cracker.
