So, let me get this straight. Intentionally hurting the Mexican economy with tariffs will *decrease* the number of desperate people trying to cross the border to find work in America?

Here's the real rub: tariffs, to Trump, are just another tool in his arsenal of mob tactics. The man isn't interested in policy; he's interested in profit. ItтАЩs a classic griftтАФuse tariffs as a bludgeon, then rake in payoffs from corporations who will pay-to-play. Tariff exemptions donтАЩt come for free; theyтАЩre for sale to those who know how to whisper sweet dollars in the right corrupt ears. Forget trade deficits or diplomatic leverageтАФthis whole charade is about extortion dressed up as patriotism, with a red hat and a fascist smile.
Hmmm...Trump's motives are 1) deflect blame onto Canada and Mexico for the 'open' border and 2) get concessions from both governments. He does not care (or even think about) the effects on the desperate people trying to cross the border to find work. Such is the nature of a kleptocratic bully.

Hey, haven't you been getting your regular dose of Kool-Aid? How can you even question The One and Only Greatest Leader of All Time?

Absolutely! Closure of Mexican assembly plants will cause people to just walk into the ocean and drown rather than emigrate to the US...
You just donтАЩt understand the Geopolitical environment like Trump. This is 7D chess.
His uncle went to MIT IтАЩll have you know. Did your uncle go to MIT? I thought not.
My favorite new quote is, "he's not playing chess. he's eating the pieces".
The Haitians are eating the pieces! They have run out of cats, dogs and geese. ЁЯШО
After seeing all the hate directed towards them, I never found that funny at all. There are real life consequences to their idiocracy.
So glad I didn't have coffee in my mouth when I read this ЁЯШВ
My father was a rocket scientist at NASA. IтАЩm gunning for ElonтАЩs job. Oops, I mean тАЬLeonтАЩsтАЭ job.
You understand! :)
