Just saw it on MSNBC. No link yet.

So it's FAKE NEWS?

Brilliant, shittingbull.

 

[TyroneSlothrop]

I heard they're already walking back this idea of a 20% tax. If so, it didn't even last a day.

This is about "dominance and submission" in the minds [LOL] of Trump supporters...this is like in the 'Rassling show when the good guy comes out of the audience and breaks a chair over the "evil guy"...its a Passion Play ....Rubes Love this shit

Watch Mexico do the same to us...

Trade war is coming.

Wouldn't this just cause American companies to start making products in America?

No, it would begin a trade war. American companies are not going to close their Mexican factories and lose billions doing so

They will move their factories or lose market share in the US, so of course they will close their factories in Mexico.

White House press secretary says border wall will be funded by 20 percent import tax on Mexican goods

But Guno, you and the other Stalinists said there would be no wall, and Mexico would never pay for it?

Yeah, i guess you ARE that fucking stupid, Comrade.

Oh. well that explains it. Well done. Trade war it is.

A trade war with mexico can blossom into a north american trade war which will hurt our economy

Guess we will have to make stuff here then, huh?

 

[Winston]

So will Mexico pay the extra 20% or will the cost be added to what the American consumer pays?

Yes it would do just that. But it also makes it more of an incentive to buy from goods not sold in Mexico. It would be devastating to them, which is why they will realize it's much cheaper to just help pay for the wall.

yes imagine getting products from central America instead of mexico

places in Africa would like our business as well

They make a lot of flat screen TV's in Africa do they?

See for yourself. Even Ivanka is manufacturing in Africa now.

And sell the car for $30,000.

They'll probably just stop making it and Mexico and the U.S. will lose jobs. Trump's scorched earth policy right there.

Hate to break it to ya but you already pay more for a Ford truck Than you do for a Tundra.

We have a Tundra, nice truck if you're into trucks.

Yep,just bought one myself. I go pick it up tommorow from Extreme Offroad Performance where they're installing 5 inches of lift and some Fuel Hostage Rims with 35x12.5 Nitto trail Grapplers and some BushWacker pocket flares.

We needed a truck for one of our daughter's activities, I rarely drive it.

I love mine. Unfortunately I will now have to walk aways when I go to my dentist since it will no longer fit in the parking garage.

Congrats on the truck...do you have a picture..?

I agree. Mexico is being run by drug gangs. It won't be long before it turns into another Chicago.

It will cost millions, not billions, and it will cost more to lose market share in the US.
