Default Trump threatens Mexico with 5% imports tariff over illegal immigration

They have 10 days
to stop the Illegals entering USA


https://news.sky.com/story/donald-tr...ation-11732055

[In a tweet, the US president said a
5% tariff on Mexican imports to the USA
would come into effect on 10 June,
and would "gradually increase" until
"the illegal immigration problem is remedied".
A White House statement explained
the tariffs would rise to 10%
on 1 July if Mexico did not
take "effective actions" to curb illegal
immigration, and would reach a height
of 25% by October.]



The Mexico President is not doing anything , yet.

Thing is, what do they expect Mexico to do, rising taxes or whatever is all well and good, but the people who try to cross illegally give not a crap about that (and tend to have nothing to actually take, from what I have seen) so..its punishing everyone else for the sake of a few? As if the immigrants are suddenly going to stop and think 'Well, if I try this and am caught, Barbara down the road will have to pay a bit more tax, so obviously I won't do it!'

The white house rapist doesn't understand that you can't keep citizens within a country that they don't want to be in unless you want to go down the path of North Korea which, given how much of a dictatorship apologist that rapist is, he probably thinks that is a good idea.

It's not down to a country to stop it's citizens from leaving but logic doesn't matter when this move is just meant to appeal to his racist fan base that just sees this as him 'hurting the right people' as his fanbase was famously quoted as saying.

Nice soundbyte, but any actual ideas that would make a huge difference? Maybe,,building a large wall around their country so that noone can physically leave?! Haha.
