[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3239112, member: 5412"] Will Mexico actually fund the wall? Good question. Y’all think back a little ways when Trump slapped 25% tariffs on some Chinese goods and shut down the largest telecommunications company there from doing business with the US. Anyone had a cell phone or game console shortage since then? Seen prices at Walmart go through the roof? Sure, there are going to eventually be some ramifications, but it’s not going to be blood in the streets like the liberal media is hyping. Illegal immigration from South America is being facilitated directly by the Mexican government allowing them passage with token resistance at Mexico’s southernmost border. They could stop it completely anytime they wish. El Paso had over 1000 arrests in one day recently with the border patrol saying we are on track to detain a million this year. Ask yourselves how many got through undetected on that one day? Another thousand? How much cocain, fentenol, meth and heroin got through that day because border patrol agents have been pulled from truck inspection check points? Tons or hundreds of tons? Don’t blame Trump, place the blame where it belongs on the do nothing Congress, and I’m not picking on liberals here either because there are fingers to be pointed at republicans like Paul Ryan right along side of them. I personally support this action because it will hurt Mexico much worse than it ever will the US economically and nothing will ever be done by congress. The US can’t sustain this level of illegal immigration forever so someone with the balls to take direct action to preserve what is left just stepped up to the plate. [/QUOTE]
