That year thing sucks

He needs to do something NOW!

Tariff cars

And tax remittances from illegals to Mexico El Sal Guatemala and Honduras

Heck even from legal invaders

Mexico lives off of money sent by Mexican Nationals back to Mexico

Shut the border, Mexico will be hurt a lot more than we will

No, PDJT has to absorb some blame on this.

He has his military at his disposal to secure our borders TODAY. RIGHT EFFIN NOW instead of waiting on the barrier to be built.

You don’t know how nor where are military assets are currently....Pres. Trump does. What you want and what can be done ‘effectively’ is his call. He just sent 750 ‘more’ ‘agents’ to the border....do you really think that is to shuffle papers for illegals?
