we send Mexico billions a year. Trump will reduce the money we send to mexico if they don’t contribute. Find another issue to win on
But how is Mexico building the wall when we're using our own money that we might otherwise send to Mexico to do it? That's like instead of giving me $100 bucks you take that money and fixing your door, then claim I paid for it.
How? Seriously, tell me how President Trump reduces the funding to Mexico. The only way he CAN is by using TPA (oh wait, conservatives hate TPA) or forcing it through Congress. It’s quite possible that with his cozy relationships with senior democrats he could indeed form a bipartisan commission to carry out his plans. I sure would like to hear the straight-talking, no nonsense candidate SAY that, though.
Now if Trump has said something along the lines of “I will, without exception, enforce the laws we have now and use the funds appropriated by Congress already to build the wall” I would be behind that 100%. If he said “I will veto any funding measures that come to me without appropriations for building the wall”, I would be ok with that.
Right now, though, Mr. Trump is just chumming the waters without any demonstrable proof that he has any idea how to enact his great plans.
