I read the WH Twitter yesterday and another place, Trump saying he’ll give MX a chance to arrest/take away the invaders from their side. If they don’t do it, border closing. Some TX mayor - El Paso (he hates Trump!) claims that closing the border will wreck his economy, cause economic hardship.
Of course closing the border will cause economic hardship. But keeping it open with invaders pouring in like the Niagra Falls is not only tremendous economic hardship but murder, rape and drug crime hardship!
Mr. Trump today tweets he postponed the border closing for a year BECAUSE they are now apprehending the illegals at their southern border, and if they stop they’re getting a 25% tariff on cars.
Margo, El Paso mayor is a Bushie, his wife is big buddies with Lara Bush.
Of course closing the border will cause economic hardship. But keeping it open with invaders pouring in like the Niagra Falls is not only tremendous economic hardship but murder, rape and drug crime hardship!

If it does not cause hardship to Mexico, then it's a worthless exercise in the first place.
I doubt very much that the USA will experience economic devastation over a closed Mexican border. Mexico will hurt way before we do.
If we are not eating avocados, Mexico is watching them rot - how does that hurt us?
If we are not driving Mexican made cars, then Mexico is watching them rust - and we have plenty of cars. Perhaps it is possible a USA company using Mexico as cheap labor - now THAT is hurting us, so closing the border is still fine by me.
