The Mexican government announced they will close their borders to Americans in the event that Donald Trump is elected President of the United States. President Enrique Peña Nieto announced the country fears Americans will flood their country and bring violence and chaos to their streets.
“Americans have a well-documented history of violence and we must act to keep our country safe,” President Nieto stated. “Many Americans have expressed a desire to relocate to our country in the event that Donald Trump becomes President. We can not have Mexico flooded with criminals and rapists. They are a violent nation and they won’t send us their best. We must be vigilant and keep a close eye on what could possibly transpire.”
The unprecedented move would mark a dynamic change in how Mexico handles foreigners. Many Mexicans fear the move could adversely affect trade relations with the United States. Mexico is currently the United States 3rd largest goods trading partner with $507 billion in total (going both directions) goods trade during 2013. Goods exports totaled $226 billion; Goods imports totaled $280 billion. The U.S. goods trade deficit with Mexico was $54 billion in 2013.
You gotta have one before you can close one, meeho.
Doesn’t Mexico now fit the definition of a “failed state”, just like Somalia?
The Mexican interior is no less dangerous than East Africa.
Trump told us he’d make them pay for the wall... they’ve just sulked their way into it
I don’t believe it either. Mexico has too much to lose. The cross border travel is more than 100,000 people per day in San Diego alone. Almost all of those people bring U.S. dollars into Mexico everyday. Also, it would be bad for the cartels.
Think it hurt them a heck of a lot more than us....let’s see how long that lasts.
I think this is KIDDING
I have to take a breath from laughing so hard.
They will not go to Mexico. They enforce there laws. Unless you have bribe money. LA MORDIDA,
Where do you go that’s safe from crime? I used to love to go to Mexico, but it doesn’t look safe anymore.
Does that include cancan?
So he will stop the huge flow of yankee dollars into Mexico from Mexicans living in the US, the US industry located in Mexico and the overly generous US government?? Happy days are here again.
Why are Mexicans’ cars so low to the ground? So they can drive and pick lettuce at the same time.(ducking!)
LOL so funny!
It gave us sixty seconds of joy.
sure did, but good while it lasted
One more reason to elect the Donald!
Even before I read the comments here, my first thought when I read the title was: “GOOD!! Some good news today -— for a change!”
... but it's so crazy it just might work.
Liberals “threatening” to leave always pick white countries like Canada.
