Just because you try to avoid the bill doesn't mean it isn't due.

We have a royal flush and they are going all in. I like our odds.

So they can tax remittances from Mexico to US, but we can't do it the other way around?



Ok walk away guys.

Then we walk from NAFTA and slap so many GD sanctions and tariffs on them it cripples their economy in a day.

I'd say this is an example of what Trump mentioned, when it came to our previously negotiating bad deals. The Mexicans have far more to lose than we do, so if they want to start talking big, call their bluff.

Imagine if you will... a MSM news organization going against a sitting POTUS in opinion; and for a former POTUS Obama in full cheerleading mode.

Sad.

Maybe the Mexi Pres is like Hilldawg and has a public and private opinion.

He probably called and told Big T to please let him act tough in public so he won't look so bad to his peeps.

How about a massive tax on all cruise ship passengers on ships headed to Mexico? On plane tickets to Mexico? Bring their tourism industry to a fricking halt. American tourists may not like it, but so what? There are other places with beaches to go. It might hurt cruise departures from New Orleans, but just go to Belize and La Ceiba instead.

Wouldn't this be like shooting a man in a wheelchair in the leg?

No, it would be like telling Mexico to go to their room without any TV or dinner and think about it before the back talk their daddy like that
