just nother reason to like Trump- refuses to back down...
“Trump changed immigration policy speech after Mexican president’s tweet”
GASP! Trump changed a line in a speech... to make it stronger?! Wow! Where’s the Fox News Alert?
What’s next...?
DONALD TRUMP ADMITS: “I FORGOT TO BRUSH MY TEETH LAST NIGHT.”
DONALD TRUMP’S ODD DIET ENCOURAGES PEOPLE TO EAT FAST FOOD!
DONALD TRUMP... DOES MELANIA MAKE WOMEN JEALOUS?
The vile press is utterly out of ideas, but cannot stop their anti-Trump propaganda nonetheless. Don’t they also have to live in the world they’re trying to create for us with the Bitch in charge? Or are they SO much under someone’s control that what they want simply doesn’t matter? Or is lying just such a part of life for leftists that they see nothing wrong with crowing that they’re “Fair and Balanced” year after year while spouting the most obvious propaganda imaginable?

We already know what happens to people who attack him personally - he hits back twice as hard.
Now we’re about to find out what happens to dignitaries who double-cross Mr. Trump. President Nieto may well regret his tweet by lunchtime today.
Ahhh.... negotiations. sometimes they can be downright vexing
Digging out the old horse head and laying it in the sleeping advasaries bed is often necessary
I visited there many years ago...one big roach nest.
As if towering over El Presidente by what looked like a foot and a half on the podium, The Donald has this little cutie pie just where he wants him to begin serious negotiations. The Mexicans are use to pushing Hillary, Kerry and Obama around. They are in for a rude awakening.
The MSM and others belittling Nieto forced him to break a man’s deal with Trump and Trump proved he’s not a patsy. Trump won 3 of a possible 2 points ....
Anyone who has watched this unfold knows that Trump p@nwed nieto. That farcical little man knew it, and like an angry little girl tweeted out his frustrations. We will see how well that works out for him, but for a jerk with a 22% approval rating in his own country, I don’t see a fairy tale ending for him no matter how much he acts like a fairy.
Trump is amazing!
Trump vs the World (and Trump is winning!)
Trump makes chumps of them all.
Of course, the world will fight dirty.
That is my one and only concern.
The little dictators,
beuracrats, fraudulent scientist and Establishment types,
want to hold on to their fake power.
Go Trump!
Most of us are much more interested in having a wall than who is going to pay for it. Build the wall and then haggle. When it is all said and done, Mexico WILL be paying for it, one way or another.
Memo explains how Donald Trump plans to pay for border wall
In a two-page memo to The Washington Post, Trump outlined for the first time how he would seek to force Mexico to pay for his 1,000-mile border fence, which Trump has made a cornerstone of his presidential campaign and which has been repeatedly scoffed at by current and former Mexican leaders. https://www.washingtonpost.com/apps/g/page/politics/memo-explains-how-donald-trump-plans-to-pay-for-border-wall/2007/?tid=a_inl
To: Mr. Robert Costa and Mr. Bob Woodward
From: Donald J. Trump
Date: March 31st, 2016
Introduction: The provision of the Patriot Act, Section 326 - the know your customer” provision, compelling financial institutions to demand identity documents before opening accounts or conducting financial transactions is a fundamental element of the outline below. That section authorized the executive branch to issue detailed regulations on the subject, found at 31 CFR 130.120-121. It’s an easy decision for Mexico. Make a one-time payment of $5-10 billion to ensure that $24 billion continues to flow into their country year after year. There are several ways to compel Mexico to pay for the wall including the following
On day 1 promulgate a “proposed rule” (regulation) amending 31 CFR 130.121 to redefine applicable financial institutions to include money transfer companies like Western Union, and redefine “account” to include wire transfers. Also include in the proposed rule a requirement that no alien may wire money outside of the United States unless the alien first provides a document establishing his lawful presence in the United States.
On day 2 Mexico will immediately protest. They receive approximately $24 billion a year in remittances from Mexican nationals working in the United States. The majority of that amount comes from
illegal aliens. It serves as de facto welfare for poor families in Mexico. There is no significant social safety net provided by the state in Mexico.
On day 3 tell Mexico that if the Mexican government will contribute $_ billion to the United States to pay for the wall, the Trump Administration will not promulgate the final rule, and the regulation will not go into effect.
Trade tariffs, or enforcement of existing trade rules: There is no doubt that Mexico is engaging in unfair subsidy behavior which we are obligated to respond to; the “cost” of any tariffs will be more than offset by the economic gains of increased production in the United States. Mexico needs access to our markets much more than the reverse, so we have all the leverage. By definition, if you have a large trade deficit with a nation, it means they are selling far more to you than the reverse - they have far more to lose from tariffs than you do.
Cancelling visas: Immigration is a privilege, not a right. Mexico is totally dependent on the United States as a release valve for its own poverty - our approvals of hundreds of thousands of visas every year is one of our greatest leverage points. We also have leverage through business and tourist visas for important people in the Mexican economy. Keep in mind, the United States has already taken in 4X more migrants than any other country on planet earth, producing lower wages and higher unemployment for our own citizens and recent migrants.
Visa fees: Even a small increase in visa fees would pay for the wall. This includes fees on border crossing cards, of which more than 1 million are issued a year. The border-crossing card is also one of the greatest sources of illegal immigration into the United States. Mexico is also the single largest recipient of US. green cards, which confer a path to US. citizenship.
Conclusion: Mexico has taken advantage of us in another way as well: gangs, drug traffickers and cartels have freely exploited our open borders and committed vast numbers of crimes inside the United States. The United States has borne the extraordinary daily cost of this criminal activity, including the cost of trials and incarcerations. Not to mention the even greater human cost. We have the moral high ground here, and all the leverage. It is time we use it in order to Make America Great Again.

Note that there was agreement prior to the meeting not to discuss the wall, yet Pena Nieto violated that agreement at the beginning of the meeting by saying Mexico wouldn’t pay for the wall. Guess Mexicans can’t abide by any agreement or law, from lowest peasant to the leader of the country. That’s why the illegals fit so well with the Democrats
“Mr. Trump was peeved that Mr. Peña Nieto had gone public with the fact that the Mexican president had broken what Mr. Trump considered a deal to keep the question of paying for the wall off the table at their initial meeting.
So Mr. Trump hurriedly inserted a new sentence in his immigration speech, and he soon boomed out from the podium his traditional declaration that the wall would be paid for by Mexico—adding, “They don’t know it yet but they’re going to pay for the wall.” “
What would McCain, Romney, Jeb, Rubio, Cruz or any other Republican have done in response to Pena-Nieto’s tweet? The answer is: [crickets]. Nothing. Zero. Zip. Nada. And that is why we continue to be the world’s whipping boy, Uncle Sucker who bleeds and pays for damned near everyone else in the world to curry favor, but get no respect because we (or, more to the point, our so-called leaders) have no respect for ourselves or our nation. It is LONG past time for that to change...and if the messenger and agent of that change is a brash, take-no-prisoners real estate developer turned reality TV mogul, THEN SO BE IT. At least he’s a patriot, at least he sees the world mostly like I see it, and like the society in which I was raised saw it.
Vote Trump - our nation depends on him defeating the Hildabeast!
