It’s the only tool he has. If they don’t want tarrifs then they should contact their democrat house members. If the passed immigration bill there would be no need for tarrifs

mexico and mexicans are not our friends, we should close the border entirely. That’s my opinion.

MX is a basket case because of it’s Hard Left leadership and the cultural corruption they suffer under. Narco Terrorists buy all the POLs and the Patrons. The Communists are fatal blow to MX.

Retaliatory actions in Red states is right out of the Stalinist playbook.

Bring it, Pedro.

We’re so ready to stand and deliver our own freedom that it’s palpable. No borders, no country.

Trump is risking everything to clean up the Mexico/South American parasite attack on our people and nation that it may be painful to us and politically costly to his Re-Election, but he shows up for the Fight to keep our country.

I would like to bank on those Red states standing alongside of him.

It’s a real shame they can’t elect. leader who actually CARES about the country and its people instead of lining his own pockets off their backs.

Homegrown lettuce won’t have e coli.

Avocados were already too expensive. I can do without. We could always boycott them.

They have no idea that agricultural products are fungible, once they cross the border.

This reminds me of while the weakling Jimmy Carter was getting squeezed by OPEC, several central American nations tried to create UBEC, the Union of Banana Exporting Countries, so they could squeeze the weakling as well.

Good!

Keep all your stinking green onions laced with e-coli making hundreds of people sick across the U.S.!

Oh, and keep all your drugs, gangs, child rapists and murderers, drunken drivers, measles and TB and other infectious diseases, Juan, Pedro and Maria!

We can fix our own roofs, mow our own lawns, clean our own homes and care for our own kids, thanks anyway!

If Hollywierd denizens are unable to do it, we’ll ship them off to wherever they were threatening to go when Trump was elected Central Amerika, or better yet - Meh-hi-Ko!

“this cannot end well for Mexico.”

No it won’t.

We can start taxing all remittances to mexico at a rate that it no longer makes it economically feasible.

We can ban all vehicles from mexico from traveling on our roads.

We can ban all travel to mexico. No cruises to cozumel, cabo, or any other tourist destinations.

For starters.
