[Rockaway]

Threatening tarrifs on Mexico and Canada made Mexico head and dancing head of Canada already agree to Trump demands.Amazing when you replace a candy ass President with one who other countries fear what those countries will agree to.Biden legacy about to take first of a lot of big hits.

Not sure what demands you believe Trudeau agreed to?

The use of tariffs is good to encourage people buying American products instead of foreign products.

If Canada started dumping cheap products into the US and it was hurting manufacturing here, then a tariff makes sense to increase the price of Canadian products so the US could complete. That's not what is happening here though. Tariffs on goods from Canada would just raise the price of those goods to the consumer. The biggest thing we import from Canada is oil.

We wouldn't stop importing oil from Canada. It would just be more expensive to import it and consumers ultimately will pay those costs.

Biden failed on the boarder so I'll give Trump credit when he deserves it on immigration, but the cheerleading for tariffs is odd.

I'm most curious to see how Trump handles the border crisis.
- The security piece - Combination of barriers, agents, technology and support from Mexico.
- Deportation strategy - There is a wide gap between what Homan is saying and what the MSM is crying about (MASS deportations and deporting your abuella...). Also how he manages the jackass mayors and governors that are already resisting.
- Using tariffs as a stick - Mexico is so economically dependent on the U.S., so he has some leverage. It's funny that Trudeau is already freaking out because they expect illegals to head north to Canada.
- Path to citizenship - If Trump wanted to create a legacy, he can use this moment to create ways for the law abiding illegals that have been working here for years to obtain citizenship. It's a stretch, but if there is a time to get support this would be it.

That 2-year old girl that was all alone on the news last night was heartbreaking. The immigration mess sums up the Biden administration: Undo what Trump did and then follow up with inaction. Pathetic.

Mexico put 6,000 troops on the border and enforced remain in Mexico so I expect something similar this time that is what I was referring to.Trudeau is dancing weak guy who will do what Trump demands.If far left mayors resist criminal deportation then they have higher chance of being defeated next time.Hard to believe Biden and the left believed the country wanted open borders and billions to feed and provide hotel rooms for migrants.Vermont might elect socialists who actually believe that is a great economic system Bernie might want to explain how Argentina when from 9th in per capital GDP in 1900 to 49th in 2000 do cry for me Argentina

I expect it to look a lot like the Lankford bill.

Agreed, the mayors and governors resisting are morons. Just say you will work with the Trump administration to assist in deporting those who are a danger and will encourage a path to citizenship otherwise.

I think the tariff talk is more political spin than anything else.
Placing a tariff on Mexican imports would hurt us more than help us. Trump using the "threat" is because eventually there will be some kind of border deal between the two and he can use the "threat" as the reason why it got done.

- Path to citizenship - If Trump wanted to create a legacy, he can use this moment to create ways for the law abiding illegals that have been working here for years to obtain citizenship. It's a stretch, but if there is a time to get support this would be it.

Agreed. That would be a legacy builder for him.
