You don't know what you are talking about.The first thing Trump pointed out was that we have a $58 billion trading deficit with Mexico, and that the wall would cost $10 billion to build. Trump was clearly implying he would eliminate that trading deficit, to Mexico's disadvantage.
What Woodward SHOULD have done at that point was ask Trump how he would reduce or eliminate the trade deficit. That's what any objective, intelligent, real journalist would have asked next.
But what did the biased retard do instead? He said, "But they're a sovereign nation." What the ever loving fuck does that have to do with trade deficits?
Trump continued on about the trade deficit, so then the tard asked, "How do you get a sovereign nation that says they don't want to pay, to pay?"
He clearly wasn't listening. He was using an idiotic rhetorical trick to imply with his questions that Trump was going to make Mexico hand over some cash.
So then Trump explained the second method by which Mexico would pay for the wall. He explained that we give "subsidies" to Mexico. I think he meant foreign aid, but with Trump, who knows.
Again, any objective, intelligent real journalist would have realized Trump was going to withhold the "subsidies" we give to Mexico and use that money instead for the wall.
Woodward did his level best to avoid letting his audience absorb this entirely rational response by Trump. He decided to imply Trump was going to go to war to get our subsidies back!!!
“I’m sorry to press on this, but how would you grab that money? If they say no, would you be willing to go to war to make sure we get the money to pay for this wall?”
How would we grab our subsidies from Mexico, Bob? Really? You fucking prick. You know exactly how. We simply stop giving them foreign aid, and use the money for the wall.
But you are counting on the rubes watching that we would somehow have to go to war to get OUR OWN MONEY from Mexico..
What a fucking asshole Woodward is.
No, Mr. Trump, Mexico is not 'killing us on trade'
