Stupid Trump question

How are tariffs on Mexican products going to stop migrants from Guatemala, Costa Rica,
and the Honduras?




Enjoy some pupusas too. We just got a good Guatemalan restaurant close to where I live and if
anybody can't see that America's future is gonna be hispanic they are blind.

They make an outstanding beef short rib soup too and about 1.5 miles north of it
is a nice Mexican spot that makes "my new crack" memelas and we have a taco
truck that has pozola too.

We used to have a good restaurant that made pupusas, but it expanded and became terrible.

and turned them into Banana Republic - wait that wasn't Mexico.
You got some nerve when you create the mess, encourage people to fight for cheap labour and then expect another sovereign country with way less resources than yours to be your policeman.

It's beyond stupid arrogance.
