$100 billion in a $20 trillion economy is less than a rounding error and much less than annual global illegal drug revenues.

Let them keep it.

I also hope the Chinese, Japanese and Arabs stop buying US Treasury bonds.

We'll be just fine.

Thank you.

Never mind chess, someone should teach them how to play checkers. The responses from Mexico since trump jumped into this have been very entertaining, and sometimes just plain sad.

Makes me wonder if they are smart enough to pick lettuce.

What anti-Mexican rhetoric? Trump is anti-illegal immigration. Libs just can't help but lie.

Apparently you can't tell the difference between proposed legislation and actual laws. Get back to us if and when it actually goes somewhere.

Yah. That - the land grab - was all discussed back during the Texan-Mexican War, Mexican-American War, & various times after. Basically, we (the US) didn't want to deal with a huge Roman Catholic, Spanish (& Native People) based cultures, religions, governments, legal, & so on systems, plus the various ethnicities. Our population would have shot up a lot, & - well, look into the history. We decided against it, finally. On the basis that we didn't want to deal with that big a mass immigration (Mexico had & has a good-sized population).

On the other, you probably mean the Pan-American Highway, already in place & rolling right along.

We have all the leverage. Trump knows this. Mexico knows this deep down. Too bad we had 8 years of an idiot who didn't understand this and let everyone walk all over us.
