    One thing Trump is good at is stating this as absolute fact when they are opinions (or outright lies). The way this Tweet(s) is written it's as though a badly needed Wall would force manufacturers to abandon plans to make stuff in Mexico or ship Mexican goods in.

    Like Ford honchos are headed to Tijuana with bulldozers and cranes only to find an impenetrable wall. Sad!

    He'll just slap a 25% tariff on products from Mexico. American citizens who buy those products will pay for the wall. Trump will claim that the money came from Mexico and declare victory.

    Say, wasn't there a big wall in Berlin?

    Have we all forgotten the trip Trump made to Mexico during the campaign, when he did or didn't discuss the wall with the Mexican president?

    I know I'm going to sound like some big pussy, but please don't post any fake memes with PornHub on it. Some of us read this in the office ...

    And you just typed the phrase "like some big pussy."

    Be Careful.

    I also just used "Fuck that" on another thread.

    But nine-point is less conspicuous than 24-point. But you knew that. ;)

    Deleted. But only because you spared me having to insult you by doing it yourself. Very proactive. :)

    Yeah, Mexico is going to pay for that wall. Sure. OK.

    Aren't import taxes generally paid by the importer?
