Are you willing to go on record that there will be a bad outcome to this? ** -- Sabremetrician 01/27/2017 2:28PM

That is absolutely my contention. I see no viable way to -- Hoo05Dave 01/28/2017 12:53AM

Yes, I have little faith in his negotiating tactics. ** -- WahooMatt05 01/27/2017 3:20PM

OK. Be more specific. What will happen? ** -- Sabremetrician 01/27/2017 3:22PM

I don't have time to dig, and I'm interested in the experiment. Below is -- Shenhoo 01/27/2017 3:43PM

So you're predicting high tariffs will be enacted leading to job losses ** -- Sabremetrician 01/27/2017 3:46PM

It's hard to tell if Congress will go along with Trump's rhetoric -- WahooMatt05 01/27/2017 4:33PM

Where did I predict that? ** -- Shenhoo 01/27/2017 4:32PM

Personally, I'm not. But I sure wouldn't bet a lot against bad outcomes. -- hoolstoptheheels 01/27/2017 3:18PM

Well said. ** -- Hoo05Dave 01/28/2017 12:58AM

Many good points in your post. Especially about the wall. Sure, -- HoosWillWin 01/27/2017 3:42PM

Though, for the record, I personally think it is a waste of money. ** -- HoosWillWin 01/27/2017 3:43PM

As do I. But I am even more baffled by the bullying. -- hoolstoptheheels 01/27/2017 5:03PM

Agreed. ** -- HoosWillWin 01/28/2017 1:43PM

Rebuilding respect with UK, Canada and Isreal -- AlexHoo 01/27/2017 2:15PM

Oh yeah, the Canadians love Trump. Love him. It's huge, it's fantastic. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 01/27/2017 2:18PM

If they voted for that dumb dumb they've got, they should hate Trump. ** -- Hokieesith 01/27/2017 2:42PM

I was thinking of the pipeline that will allow their oit to be imported -- AlexHoo 01/27/2017 2:26PM

Oh you mean that tar sand crap that is now priced out of the market? ** -- Seattle .Hoo 01/27/2017 2:40PM

The Brits hope to do business with him while the iron is hot also -- KCHoo 01/27/2017 2:35PM

The Brits are mostly just happy that we kicked them out of first place in -- WahooRQ 01/27/2017 2:52PM

I kind of think getting out of what the EU is becoming isn't all that dumb -- KCHoo 01/27/2017 2:59PM

In any event, nothing remotely intelligent or redeeming about Donald Trump -- WahooRQ 01/27/2017 3:12PM

I think the world is too worried about it to be laughing -- KCHoo 01/27/2017 3:49PM

Very true. My brother in law just got back from Montreal -- WahooMatt05 01/27/2017 2:24PM

Not to throw the BS card but how would US Customs even know they intended -- Hoodafan 01/27/2017 2:51PM

They asked them and they told them they were going to the march -- KCHoo 01/27/2017 3:31PM

They could be lying about it, but it was reported -- WahooMatt05 01/27/2017 3:12PM

Thanks for posting that. I'm going with BS, or at the very least that there -- Hoodafan 01/27/2017 3:24PM

President Dwayne Elizonodo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho has spoken -- Hooooooooooooooo 01/27/2017 2:15PM

When Trump said he'd unite the country, he didn't say which one. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 01/27/2017 2:13PM

LOL -- WahooMatt05 01/27/2017 2:15PM

Do you not think that our borders should be secure? ** -- JMHoo 01/27/2017 1:14PM

No, they don't. What plan did they have and implement? ** -- Hokieesith 01/27/2017 2:22PM

The 20% tarriff and constant assertions that "Mexico will Pay" -- hoolstoptheheels 01/27/2017 2:06PM

I don't think building a wall solves anything. -- WahooMatt05 01/27/2017 1:21PM

Well your ilk has been in charge for 8 years and we know dang well -- TomKazanski 01/27/2017 1:24PM

True, they did nothing. But why? Fear of losing voters? ** -- Hokieesith 01/27/2017 2:43PM

You know nothing. Illegal immigration through our Mexican -- 111Balz 01/27/2017 1:29PM

Don't confuse Tommy with facts- pointless to even engage ** -- Capital City Hoo 01/27/2017 2:52PM

I know. For whatever reason I have not added him -- 111Balz 01/27/2017 3:41PM

You are posting this in response to mr rolling stone himself ** -- TomKazanski 01/27/2017 3:15PM

Because of a stagnant economy and you know that. But yet you keep throwing -- Hoodafan 01/27/2017 2:08PM

Wtf are you babbling about. Our economy has been one of the -- 111Balz 01/27/2017 2:52PM

Not just the last several years. Even in those early Obama years, when we -- Hoodafan 01/27/2017 3:10PM

Well, not sure where you're getting you info, but you should try again -- 111Balz 01/27/2017 3:35PM

That's not a very well thought out post. ** -- Hoodafan 01/27/2017 3:41PM

Whatever. you seem happy. that's all that matters i guess -- 111Balz 01/27/2017 5:29PM

Think about it this way. Trump's policies will endeavour to make it harder -- Seattle .Hoo 01/27/2017 2:15PM

I agree. But that's a big if on whether it becomes policy, and even if it -- Hoodafan 01/27/2017 2:45PM

The irony would be appropriate -- WahooMatt05 01/27/2017 2:30PM

I don't believe Trump can envision a win-win scenario. With him it is -- Seattle .Hoo 01/27/2017 2:37PM

One of the many points he's missing. -- Hoojack 01/27/2017 1:37PM

They are as afraid of Trump as much as you are! -- jdubforwahoowa 01/27/2017 1:30PM

Pre trump ** -- 111Balz 01/27/2017 1:31PM

Right, when they knew Trump was gonna be the next POTUS. ** -- jdubforwahoowa 01/27/2017 1:31PM

Not sure if you are kidding, but no. It was the result of -- KCHoo 01/27/2017 2:17PM

That sounds like some kind of compromise that -- walkthecorner 01/27/2017 2:39PM

Rubio and the repubs that leaned in that direction were eviscerated ** -- KCHoo 01/27/2017 2:49PM

I should have clarified most people not politicians -- walkthecorner 01/27/2017 3:09PM

It was voters who didn't like Rubio's position. ** -- hoodeyo 01/27/2017 6:24PM

I bet you 1 dollar it would pass a national referendum. ** -- walkthecorner 01/27/2017 10:03PM

Most likely. Seems reasonable enough to me. -- hoodeyo 01/28/2017 12:48AM

I was messing with Balz. Good post there. -- jdubforwahoowa 01/27/2017 2:31PM

No, sigh, a multi year trend. mexico's economy has been doing -- 111Balz 01/27/2017 1:36PM

Peso is cratering as we speak. ** -- jdubforwahoowa 01/27/2017 1:39PM

That there is called diplomacy! ** -- 111Balz 01/27/2017 1:45PM

Absolutely. Just think we can do it without -- walkthecorner 01/27/2017 1:19PM

We hold all the cards, don't really need to be concerned with their -- TomKazanski 01/27/2017 12:57PM

All this America First talk reminds me of something a wise man once said -- WahooMatt05 01/27/2017 1:07PM

CTB for POTUS. Get on it. ** -- jackethoo 01/27/2017 1:21PM

Brogs can ease into it by being his VP. :-) ** -- jdubforwahoowa 01/27/2017 1:22PM

Seconded. Who's making the phone calls? ** -- fphoo 01/27/2017 1:54PM

The problem is, they come here because we need them. -- fphoo 01/27/2017 1:02PM

All the cards? -- Hoojack 01/27/2017 1:00PM

You may have missed his point. IIRC 80% of Mexico's exports come here, and -- Hoodafan 01/27/2017 2:04PM

I didn't miss the point. -- Hoojack 01/27/2017 2:16PM

Spot on except for one thing -- fishhoo 01/27/2017 2:40PM

Holding the much better cards? I guess we'll have to just disagree about -- Hoodafan 01/27/2017 2:36PM

North Korea would agree with that sentiment. Of course psychology has to -- Hoodafan 01/27/2017 2:21PM
