I’m all for invading Mexico, cleaning it up, then giving it back. Along with a bill for services rendered, payable in an affordable installment plan because we remember Weimar.

But that ain’t gonna happen. And what we’re left with takes time.

Hence my tagline.

It’s not just about the drugs.

This is unacceptable.

Disappointed in him on this.

Hey way to go! The US cannot not control its own side of the border, while the Mexican drug cartels control every inch of the Mexican side - and, by the now impending default, the US side as well! Hey way to go!

When I heard him say one year I was shocked, I figured he would impose the tariffs now not on in one year makes no sense, so they have a year to continue to send their crap here

4) Forget the wall and put down a 30’ mine field in all areas that don’t have a wall. A lot cheaper, and I will bet the illegal traffic flow will be almost zero.

here’s a longer video of him saying it:

President Trump said he would give Mexico a year to stem the flow of illegal drugs over the southern border, and if the country cannot, he said he would either close the border or impose tariffs on cars.

We don't get anything in this deal, but his son-in-law Kushner did get a prestigious award from Mexico for doing ????

Wonder why the secret forces of Israel don’t do more against the cartels? Guess drugs are not as much a problem there. But as a matter of principle, would be helpful if they would “assist” in some way,,not murder, of course.

If there is another year of virtually unchecked mass invasion, how much of anything else going to matter? The Dems and their fellow travelers are racing hundreds of thousands across the border every month. These illegals will be dispersed to key states and they will vote in 2020.

WTF? When did his threat of closing the border if Mexico doesn't stop the migrant caravans to drug cartel enforcement? What am I missing here? My best guess is the Commerce Department and/or Ivanka and Jared Kushner.

And now a year warning? WTF! again. Who stole Trump's balls?

The problem is that the US and Mexican economies are so tied together. Would closing the border hurt Mexico severely? Obviously. The problem is that it would also hurt the US economy. Can you say ‘recession’? With all the negative media coverage, the media would milk a recession for all it was worth. PDJT would stand no chance of re-election and the Commiecrats would win.

I believe that PDJT will just slowly tighten the screw on Mexico unti they do the right thing. Avoiding a potential recession until AFTER, or much closer to the election is an astute move.
