#1) There is no such word as “irregardless"

okay...#2) No. For example if we buy corn from Mexico but Mexico buys rubber from France we can force Mexico to buy rubber from us or increase the price of corn to shorten the deficit. This was Trump's plan with many of our trade deals. He thought it was unfair that we imported so much but did not export enough.
#3) If Mexico buys more goods from us then companies will produce more, higher more people and generate higher profits, all would be tax revenue.
“higher more people” LOL. I guess you mean “hire more people”?
That would be great.
Perhaps you can tell us; as of 1/15/2019; through this new NAFTA trade deal, how much has Mexico contributed to the US Treasury?
Yes hire, my bad. As I said I am not sure that is a great plan but that was his plan. A Wall is a permanent structure so if Mexico pays for it over 20 years via the improved trade deals (which again I am not certain will work) then effectively Mexico would have paid for the Wall. That was his plan. He never said Mexico would write a check, LOL.
Many scholars maintain there is no such word as irregardless because regardless already means “without regard.” The -ir prefix is redundant.
As soon as we get the 20 years of payments from Mexico, we can start building the wall. You don’t want to put more money on the nation’s credit card and increase the debt do you?
Do I? No. Our politicans do, however. Started with Bush, gone on steroids by Obama and continued by Trump. They are very bad. VERY BAD. Congress needs a complete overhaul.
So we agree; once we get the money, build the wall then. Great.
If we had the money the politicians still would not agree to build it. You missed my point entirely.
