Imagine that AMLO wins the election, how far will he take his anti-US rhetoric as a backlash against Trump? Imagine the day China and Russia would be allowed to station missile silos or missile defense against US nukes on Mexican soil, or station their Navies in ports all along Mexico and patrol off our coasts? And all because a loudmouth like Trump is ruining any relationship and goodwill we had with our neighbor. Scary times to be alive. It'll be the day when we have what is tantamount to a reverse NATO, comprised of Russian and Chinese soldiers, shoring up along our border on Mexican soil, just like how we send NATO troops to the door of Russia.
Even if that doesn't happen, what else could AMLO do? He could also unleash a title wave of illegal immigrant to the US border (who, even with a wall in place, will eventually find ways across the border).
Ya, he's gonna fire illegals out of a cannon cartoon style. Mexico relies on US tourism. Let them F themselves, which they've already done once after not quelling their drug problem. If that idiot wants to inherit the Pemex issue good for him.
A lot of those exports are component parts that are used in American factories such as auto manufacturers. So a trade war would also hurt the U.S. companies, which in turn could either raise prices to U.S. consumers, or there could be temporary layoffs due to a shortage of parts. Not a good situation to put the country in by destabilizing the economy.
There will be no trade war because the reality of the situation is that the US has all of the leverage.
We may have some inflation, but Mexico will go back to being a third world country.

Mexico is also the United States second largest market for export goods. There would be huge consequences to making big disruptions in the economic relationship.
Your lack of explaining things is very sad. Instead of a childish symbol, explain why I hurt your eyes?
You seem to be the epitome of knowledge. Prove it. Debate it? Opinions are opinions.. And my opinion is Mexicos dealings with previous POTUS, Clinton, was not in the best interest of the USA. So, we need to change things..for the better of our financial and security issues within USA..

Especially considering to screw with Mexico he has to dump NAFTA, which also effects the US's largest trading partner for exports AND imports. Canada. That Keystone XL pipeline doesn't work as well with no oil in it.
We should invade and annex mexico anyway... If the anti us candidate wins and forces a war so be it.
That is the all time winner of dumbest idea ever. On so many levels.
