What, do you want a $15 billion safe space?Trump is threatening Mexico with up to a 20% tax on their imports. If he makes good on that it will be more than enough to pay for the wall.
Because purchasing patterns will ignore a 25% price increase and continue on without change ... right.
Before he adds those taxes, he's going to have to disavow NAFTA, which constitutionally has the force of law. I wonder what Congress will have to say about that? It's packed with free-trade Republicans.
