Mexico will feel it first. Just close the border to everything except commerce. No visitors, no illegals. Close all border entries in California. Nogales, Arizona handles most of the freight and produce.

Gun-grabbing babykillers desperately want illegal alien invaders coming into America so they can turn our nation into a 3rd World $hithole.

We lived without them before. We can do it again. Those Georgia peaches outclass them.

Closing the Border I doubt means trains don’t come through and cars don’t come through it means people don’t come through. I am sick and tired of this lie.

The cartels have got into the avocado business, well not really but they do charge avocado farmers a per pound protection fee, don’t pay them you die, so buying avocados from mexico supports the drug cartels

Auto/truck lead acid batteries too...EastPenn probably can’t come close to replacing the Johnson Controls/Interstate Mexico output.

I’m on my second Rottweiler and avocados have been both of their favorite treats. I guess Mongo will just have to forage for illegal aliens.

Don’t Jelly Belly make Avocado-flavored jellybeans? I’d say its a win-win for Americans.

We have the technology and infrastructure to grow imported fruits and vegetables indoors, hydroponically.

It would have a bigger impact on Mexico.

Which I am certain is just one of the pressures on Mexico to do something that PDJT has in mind.
