Much of politics is an exercise in diversion and theater while the real agenda plays out just below the surface. The challenge, then, for the person who is trying to figure out what really is going on is to distinguish between what is said and done for appearance, and what the real goals and plans are. This is often a difficult task as those who have made it to the top typically have honed their skills very well.
Donald Trump is a master negotiator, having literally written the book on making deals. As such, he is quite capable of offering a proposal that he knows will not be accepted simply as one step in moving the negotiation process forward. So it is wise never to make judgements on the progress of negotiations just based on what is said or proposed while the matter is in play.
The construction of the border wall is a major component in President Trump’s plan to secure our borders and stop illegal immigration. What makes it even more controversial is that he has claimed that Mexico will pay for it.
Will they?
More on page two.
Surprise
lol
It will cost more to take care of illegals than to build this wall I don’t care how it gets done JUST DO IT
More wall BS!
Trump was wrong in saying Mexico would pay for it, EVEN if the savings of fixing trade will pay for it in a few months!… Even if we build a real good wall (What Trump has no idea what it is) that will cost 40+B, we must pay for it, not Mexico!! And if we negotiate with Mexico for them to pay some of it, that must not include concessions somewhere else, or stupid taxes! We need a fair trade with Mexico and everyone else — zero balance whenever possible!!
Good. Do it Trump.
TV’s are cheaper now than in 1980. However in 1980 jobs were everywhere, insurance was for everyone, jobs paid well, most everything was made here. Then NAFTA and China trade deals were signed. Factories left,Jobs started disappearing, jobs started paying less. layoffs, company closures rapidly. So i know what free trade does to a country, China is booming because now they are the manufacturing capital of the world. So do not preach your liberal c**p to me about economics and i do not know what i am talking about. I have seen it first hand. America needs to wake up. Only country i know that people visit and buy a souvinier and its made in CHINA. No Globalization for us, not here..
He’s a business man. Of course he does! I doubt he doubles the national debt
You knrw he was gonba get money from Mexico one way or another…it is their choice
and the tax on the imports will end being placed on the goods that the us citizen will be paying for in the long run need a better tactic than that one.
Brilliant!!! I was there I was one of those laid off, I lived it too! Yes indeed, those of us who know are the ones who know Trump is telling the truth!!!
