- Uhhhhh. That was not the plan Trump.monospaced
- he'll say mexico will pay for it through import taxesGnash
- and through their labour lol_niko
- but really, who truly thought that the mexicans would actually agree to pay for this?Gnash
- the only way to do it would have been through tariffsGnash
- @Gnash 1) The Trump supporters who chanted "build that wall" did 2) There are no tariffs on goods passing between the US and Mexico,...kona
- there hasn't been for 20 years (NAFTA). This is also the reason why most of Trumps shitty expensive clothes are made in... Mexico.kona
- So the question really should be... would Trump add tariffs to his own (and his childrens) clothing lines being made in Mexico?!?kona
- We should definitely consider investing into catapults and a big gigantic oversized robot to guard the gates with that wall.********
- true kona, but trump also talked about dumping 'bad nafta' and renegotiating all the other 'bad agreements'.Gnash
- to be clear, I'm not endorsing it, just trying to clarifyGnash
- He also talked about repealing Obamacare... building a wall... Indicting Clinton... deportation promises... pulling out of Paris climate agreement...kona
- ... point is... he's talked about so much. Now, will he DO it, or will he back away from it (like all of the above).kona
- Pretty sure omg not only believed the wall would be built and paid for by Mexico but also posted several times about how it was a good thing.monospaced
- Based on his rabid and overly enthusiastic stance on the subject, most would conclude that was a major reason he got omgs vote.monospaced
