I conceded in last post that you are the expert...on Law? Constitution? (tho I don’t know that for a fact and you ofer nothing in your profile to indicate that). But I said, “Fine...forget the remittance tariff.
However, Eisenhower declared a National Emergency. And he also implemented Project Wetback. Those are both in the same ballpark as what I am suggesting.
By October when the tariff is 25%, another 500,000 plus the unknown number (some say 2 or 3 times as many according to experts - border patrol) will have crossed if nothing changes...
Project Wetback is a markedly different thing than the executive branch enacting a tax on U.S. companies making financial transactions (remittances). Even with that, Project Wetback would be violating current U.S. law on asylum.
The problem isn’t your suggestions being bad ideas, they are all good ideas and such ideas are necessary. However, current U.S. law enacted by Congress and signed by Bush makes these things impossible to implement if you follow the law. Trump does not have the support within his own party to openly violate current asylum or immigration law. He’ll, his own party doesn’t support the tariffs, which are practically the only thing he can legally do. He can close the border entirely. But that would undoubtedly result in his impeachment and removal from office.
We are boxed in by our own government, both political parties and the Deep State, all of whom probably desire the end of American sovereignty. All these need to be defeated and removed before any good options can be implemented.
