Mexicans love them some pork, too. A friend of mine supervises some Mexicans and he said they once found a pig, slaughtered it, and hung it up at their shack and ate on it for a week.

Mexico cannot win a trade war.... their only strategy is to remove whatever little security at the border and let more in.... but this would only play into trumps wall construction momentum

All you will do is push it other means. Remittances via other methods (calling cards, gift cards, bitcoin) is already growing. They have much lower transaction fees than wiring money.

There is NO trade war Mexico can win with us if we are committed.

Are we committed? Remains to be seen.

Trump imposes trade war with no plan how to do it or end it once it starts. Uses another talking point to action for votes and fails to make it work.

How is that wall going again? So many prototypes sitting on the shelf.

Trump is committed.

The US Senate? They should probably be institutionally committed.
