LOL, and if "we don't have to buy it" no tariffs are paid, thereby no wall.
Again, it would be Americans paying the tariffs on the goods sold.
You should give up, because it is obvious you have no clue on how tariffs work.
 

Which begs the question what is in the new "non NAFTA" deal with Mexico?
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

Factcheck is the same group as SNOPES. A RADICAL LEFT, LEANING organization , that will spin anything they can as far left and lying as they can.
 Funded by Annenberg foundation, which is BILL AYERS.  The home spun terrorist, who bombed one of our political buildings.  I can't remember every detail for the "correctors' on here.  The point is.  RADICAL LEFT LEANING. NOT RELIABLE SITE.  I would think, "Christians" would want the truth and help save our country and constitution, not keep bashing our best president ..EVER.  Faux christians.
I guess some women on here want wear burkas?   I don't.  Very foolish people today in 2018.

Your so deep!

The only thing I've heard so far, tariffs on automobiles, going both directions, but no more than that, and no details. I need to find out more, and see what all is in there.

   Bad meaning Good or the other BAD?  @Emjay

It depends on how you look at it @corbe .  Some would say President Nero has fueled the fires of division in America and made the problem worse.  Others would say he made the fires better.

You really don't know s**t about economics. It will be the American consumer who will pay for the Tariffs not Mexico.


I beg to differ. Why the foul language ? No one, will force American consumers to buy mexico products. Who is dumb? 
If something costs too much for me, I don't buy it. Price drops.  I am sure, you never thought of NOT buying something, that costs too much. I worked for CPA firm, prepared taxes, and worked for Banks for 8 years. Then I was a realtor for 3 years. I know enough,  not to cuss at people. I bet you have all kind of debt?

Not this minute. It is coming.  This was explained too, so I give up.  TARIFFS PAID BY MEXICO,,WHO WANT TO BRING THEIR PRODUCTS,,,HERE. If it costs too much for American people, we don't have to buy it.
Interesting, if the tariffs make it to expensive for Americans to buy the products, and so few or none of the products are sold......................Where the heck does the money from tariffs then appear to pay for the wall?

   The glass is always half full, I'm rather enjoying the fact that she likes Trump way, way, way more that Cruz and will admit it.

Ha, ha @The Ghost   I hear you but I've begged people for a long time to stop using pronouns all the time and name names.  It's just a few more strokes on the keyboard.

Every time I see a derogatory post talking about 'she' I think it means me.

Why does this have to be explained, for over two years now??   TARIFFS ON MEXICO. that was always the plan

Hey GENIUS, Mexico does not pay tariffs, the AMERICAN PEOPLE DO.  No money is sent to DC from Mexico.  It is taken in punitive taxation from Americans who buy or purchase items made or have parts that come from Mexico.

And then your pal Trump makes the entirety of the American people who pay taxes PAY FOR BILLION DOLLAR BAILOUTS of industries hurt by his stupid little trade war that you falsely believe is going to pay for your wall.

It's a lose, lose for American taxpayers, while you lie to yourselves and pretend that Mexico is paying for it.

I'd like to remind us that back in 2006 Bush II signed the following legislation: Secure Fence Act of 2006 to build a double border wall and fence at an initial cost of 1.4 Billion.  Congress only partially funded it - and most of the money for it disappeared.  Then in 2007 they amended the act, and the CBO said it would cost 50 billion to construct and reinforce different types of walls and fencing required.  To date from that Act, only 350 miles of pedestrian fence was constructed with 299 miles being "vehicle barriers" (speed bumps) for 649 miles of the initially proposed 652 miles of border wall.

Then the Chamber got involved and open borders was the policy Bush II and Obama ended up going with, and the border fence and wall still sits as it does today.

It where all the trillions of dollars of our money gets shoved in and gulped down by the insatiable ravenous beast in D.C.

All we get out of it is shit later on after we have been forced to feed it.

That is disgusting isn't it?  Like people who have their nose up Trumps butt so far.  Yeah I never thought about a picture of dogs smelling each other as a sin.  Disgusting, but not a sin.
