I couldn't give a rat's patoot what he was like in the 70's. People change over time and youth often do stupid things. It's merely your biased opinion that he is the same person as in the 70's or even worse. He's done more good in the past year than any past presidents from decades ago, Republican or Democrat.

Donald Trump: All the Times He's Insulted Mexico | Time

We don't have to demonize Trump. He does that all by himself with his petty insults and infantile tweets and behavior.

He wasn't a youth in the 70's and he wasn't changed at all, except he could finish a sentence at that time.

He doesn't know how to speak the truth.

My guess is that with the opposition of the landowners along the border who will file lawsuits (with merit) against eminent domain laws to acquire their property, it will take 20 years to adjudicate a right of way, if it happens then. Trump, blessedly, will be long gone from Washington long before that (maybe this week...?).

In short, we will never see this wall built, at least during the lifetimes of most of us on this board, at anybody's expense. It's all bloviation by the Mango Mussolini to try to whip his base into a frenzy.

That would be a penalty, not a tax.

I'm actually fine with that. You break laws, you pay a fine.

But again, that is not Mexico paying anything, it is Americans paying.

And the comment about taxing for the export of people..... how exactly would you do that?

How dare they.

Our country is the life-blood of the Mexican economy, without us they'd be nothing.

Now this cartel-puppet in MC thinks he can gain moral victories by insulting our president? damn him I say.

Mexico needs to be disciplined.
wow, somebody seems to be triggered.
