President Donald Trump made good on a promised immigration announcement Thursday night, proclaiming he will increase tariffs on Mexico. “On June 10th, the United States will impose a 5% Tariff on all goods coming into our Country from Mexico, until such time as illegal migrants coming through Mexico, and into our Country, STOP,” President Trump wrote in a Thursday night tweet.“The Tariff will gradually increase until the Illegal Immigration problem is remedied,” the president said and continued in a subsequent post, “….at which time the Tariffs will be removed. Details from the White House to follow.”

Making Mexico pay for the wall.
Good, do it as a general principle. Screw NAFTA, GATT, WTO and globalists in general.
MAGA!!
I don’t think they can do that. Which is gonna make the libtards response this morning very interesting. Which also may explain why that response is so slow in coming. Trump may have really blindsided Pelosi here.
TRUMP IS A DICTATOR!! WAAAAAH!!!!!!
He should also expel their ambassador until they do what needs to be done
Oh.. and they played Republican Chuck Grassley condemning the move.
On Drudge this morning, he has a photo of immigrants riding, en masse, atop trains. Here's an idea for Mexico to help convince DJT to not apply tariffs:
STOP letting immigrants have a free ride atop your trains.
That's not all that hard to enforce.
More bullshit tariffs for non trade related issues.
Huh.
My only complaint is that he didn’t start at 50%.
Exactly. Some judge will block this in a heartbeat. Yes, yes, I know, but but judges don’t have the power to do that. Nonetheless, it won’t stop him or her from issuing a TRO that goes into immediate effect.
And lil Johnny Roberts will have his blackmailed proclamation that such decisions need to go through the proper legal process and deny immediate relief.
But, but...where will I get the avocados for my toast bread?
My only complaint is that he didn’t start at 50%.
**************
My only complaint is that he didn’t do this sooner. Mexico has been a highway for drugs, illegal immigration, human trafficking, and disease.
The longer you wait to do something the harder it is to fix it generally.
5 percent... FIVE PERCENT? What a joke, like that’s going to make any difference. ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND ILLEGAL ALIENS ARE INVADING OUR COUNTRY EVERY MONTH!
Each one of these invading law breakers are costing us SEVENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS A YEAR!
Do the math; we are screwed and America is finished unless serious action is taken IMMEDIATELY to completely and permanently stop this INVASION.
Five percent is a joke!
Yeah the corrupt president of Mexico wants to “talk”, President Trump needs to take SERIOUS ACTIONS that will makenable Mexico and its president SQUEAL, BEG and take immediate action to stop the invasion and aiding and abetting the invading illegal alien hordes moving through Mexico.
Until that happens no deal, and President Trump should impose INCREASING the tariffs five percent, EVERY MONTH, until Mexico complies completely.
Until that happens, this is all nothing but “Kabuki theater”.
You cut and paste the same post to all of these threads?
The tariffs increase 5% on the first of each month until it reaches 25%. Did you read the plan? My guess is that it would be a no. Just criticism.
MX can't survive through October with these tariffs.
....and neither can their drug running overlords....
Watch and learn.
