ACB,

Could you explain to me how exactly Mexico is supposed to pay for the wall? Because, for the life of me, I can't figure out how increasing tariffs on goods coming into the US from Mexico, would be paid by Mexico. That's not how economics work.

It is not really about tariffs as much as people think.It is about them owing about about 500 billion in trade deficits and they need to pay for the wall based on how much they owe us.The wall only costs about 15-20 billion to build so we can easily deduct 15-20 billion out of the 500 billion they owe America as part of negotatiations with them.It is about using America's economic advantage when negotiating with Mexico to get them to cooperate and pay for the wall based on the money they already owe us.Not cooperating with America will only hurt them economically. Instead of thinking tariffs think instead about the economic advantage America has over any country on earth to be used as leverege when negotiating.

A TRADE DEFICIT IS NOT A DEBT!

Abe, you're out of your depths here. You need to go somewhere quiet and get a handle on basic economics.

No you are.You just wait n see who is right and who is wrong.You should'nt get your news from fake news specialists.We are gonna have a high-tech wall too,have you seen the draft plans of the wall that Trump is taking bids on concerning who will build the wall? You're also going to realize you were played by politicians in both parties for years who never used the economic advantage America has when negotiating. Just wait until you see America charging other countries for security instead of giving them a free-ride and that money goes to improving America's infrasctructure.There are many ways America can make money that politicians never thought about,but Trump will.

The definition of "trade deficit" doesn't change based on one's political affiliation. You clearly don't know what the term means. Hence my suggestion that you turn off InfoWars and go read a [love] book.

I know what trade deficit means and Mexico owes America because of a trade deficit,they have made alot of money off of America.Of,course though there are people in both parties that want to allow it to continue and allow Mexico to keep taking adbvantage of the US,but Trump won't. Actually I have'nt been watching Infowars as much but I still get better and more informative news than what the MSM reports on and what they don't report on.

Trump is a disgrace to the biggest democracy, as some would say, on the planet. The amount of scandals this man has is insane and he got elected to be POTUS. From pu*sy grabs to sending Kushner in Iraq, it's ridiculous.
It would be a blessing if they missed the cairns and got lost on the way back. Or if
the Thing on the ice got them tonight.

I could only turn and stare in horror at the chief surgeon.

So you agree with me that Trump is a disgrace? The guy for whom 7 women atleast testify that he sexually harassed them, is gonna take care of iraqi Christians?
What world does that work in really?

Trump has been in the media for 40 years and if it were true? He would have been accused before he ran for President and never was.The left and media wants you to think that we don't know who Donald Trump is,when we do. Bill Clinton is the one that has a history of sexual assault and Hillary intimidating the women to keep quite about it to protect their political careers,so it is laughable for the left to make Trump into a sexual harraser and Trump has had plenty of women who work in high positions for him in his many businesses and we never heard of any kind of sexual harrassment until he ran for President.The left is known for lies and slander and so nobody believes anything they say about political foes,so that even if it were true about Trump? The left and media cannot be believed.

From pu*sy grabs to sending Kushner in Iraq, it's ridiculous.
That's fine, as long as you remember what Billy Bob Clinton had to say about Trump's clumsy sexual shenanigans: "Amateur!"

Clinton was getting oral delights all over the white house - his history of such behavior makes anything I've ever read about Trump, pale in comparison. And every one of the women who spoke out, Hillary tried to ruin them and their reputations -he raped one of them. Anyone who rants about Trumps history with women and yet supports the HillBillies - how hypocritical that is. That doesn't mean Trump is a saint. Look at the Kennedys - they would have called Bill Clinton an amateur.

Agreed Phil, Clinton was not much different when it came to women. But Billy isn't president anymore. And it's beside whether Clinton was a bad president or not...the fact is Trump isn't a good one. The difference between billy and trump is, his affairs got leaked after he got elected almost twice. Trump's got leaked before he was elected and...he was still elected.
