Negotiating, shemotiating.
You can take a horse to water, but no one can make that horse drink it.
Do you get paid a nickel for every post?
Yes talk is cheap. And that’s the problem with Washington. If trumps says he’s going to do something you better listen.
So.
When you can make just one right prediction on trump then maybe somebody will start listening to you. So far, you’re coming up goose eggs.
Hey, here’s an idea, how about taxing all the money being sent back via Western Union and other transfers? How about like, ummm, 30% to pay for the wall?
But if he was attacking anti-amnesty conservatives just a few years ago, then that doesn’t matter anymore.
Some people are putting their fingers in their ears if/when others talk like you are and are saying “Lalalalalalala. I’m not listening!”
There is a relatively simple way to make Mexico pay for the wall: impose a tax on all cash remittances from the US to Mexico by emigres. With such remittances running at about $24 billion per year, a 1 per cent tax would yield $240 million a year if comprehensive and fully enforced. That would finance a quite substantial wall.
There is no such thing as a car made 100% in the USA. In fact it kind of cracks me up when people whine about all the Fords being built in Mexico.

No, I wasn’t getting you wrong, and I hope I didn’t send that message.
I get what you are saying, but I also believe that just willing others to do this or that or even trying to command them to do something isn’t going to do squat.
Again, it seems like all talk and no walk.
So it’s either we all support Trump or we give up?
That is a false choice.
Please don’t lay logic on the trump haters. They are too dense to understand. They are still stuck in the past of politics as usual. No more politicians. Let’s put an outsider in dc.
He said he would slap a tariff on Mexican imports to pay for the wall.
Rush Limbaugh has been especially good through the years at pointing out the part about liberals trying to just wish things into reality.
But I doubt that he would do the same with Trump.
One day somewhere in the future, there will be a lot of heart ache over Trump.
We’re in a trade war with the rest of the world. We just choose not to fight, like fools.
So how’s that Obama care working out for those democrat voters?
Stats are like opinions. Everyone has one.
How are we as a nation going to force Mexico and China to do something?
Negotiate? Yell at them? Make the horse drink the water?
That's exactly what he's proposing.
Isn’t that a recipe for a trade war?
Of course it is.
Neither/nor.
So those supposedly “dumping” on Trump made him say what CNN has in the article?
