I would say we should tax money transfers to Mexico, not seize them entirely.

“Wal Mart, Western Union, Money Gram and other entities wire-transferring $22 billion annually out of the US across the border need to be nailed.”

You ever been to an urban US post office on the first of the month?

“Or are we going to seize money from all of them without differentiating?”

Impose a 10% fee on all remittances to latin america and let legals file for a tax credit.

“Of course he could. Stupid question.”

Yes, he could. I’m guessing though that much of the money sent to Mexican relatives is a cash and carry endeavor. And, should the clamps be put in electronic transactions it would only increase.

RE :”I doubt it.”

Trump can do anything, he is rich and smart and independent.

He has bought all those politicians that he complains about now, and he can buy them again.

He is the magic man.

I saw a Trump thread today where the Trumpistas were praising MSNBC and NBC and bitching about FNC.

Mika was mentioned as loving Trump.

Is the the ‘real conservative’ that Levin keeps saying that young people need a chance to vote for?

No doubt illegals get paid in cash and send the cash home in the mail.

The ideas above wont stop that.

On the plus side, I liked yesterday where Trump said that GWB screwed up in Iraq.

Reading the former Bush-bots who used to get upset when I posted that praise Trump for his honesty is entertaining.

Add a 20% tax to anyone that do’s not have proper papers to be in the U.S.

And who is going to be responsible for checking and verifying the papers of everyone who walks into a check cashing place looking to make a money transfer?

Is that a serious question?

If the threat does it great, if not just do it legislatively or by exec order. I contend if this is done our illegal immigration problem will be greatly diminished. Take away the welfare benefits and it dies completely.

Did you hear him talking about the “giant sucking sound”. Channeling Perot’s protectionist nonsense!

Yep, everything is easy when you are the Don Trump.

He plays Hardball

The rest are weak and stupid

Mika seems to love him more than she did Christie.
