The peso has been dropping for months and a wall would only make it go lower. People have no idea how many ranchers on the border don't want a wall because they own land on both sides and use it for grazing
Peso was up this morning aorund 0.8%, and then dropped like a rock after the Mexican president cancelled. For Mexico this is stupid because Trump can easily take 14b from multiple places, and still hurt them in other ways. They depend on us.
So making them pay 14 billion is a good move for them
14b now is better than getting it taken out anyway plus other penalties. Mexico can't ? with us at all.
Mexico is the U.S's second biggest trading partner. Everyone would lose. You cant just say "Mexico cant ? with us" and plus that sounds stupid in a 2017 global economy.
....and What penalties? Trump could double the entry fees at the Mexico-US border but that would be a drop in the bucket to cover the 15-25 billion needed for the wall. You put tariffs on Mexican good, you have yourself a trade war.
You know not what you speak. There are no absolutes.
They already said it will likely be a border tax, and yes that covers it. 14b is a fraction of our budget.
And Mexico benefits way more from trade with us, than we do with them. They have no leverage, none. We could start ? with their remittance if we want, there's a whole host of things we can do. Then you got May coming from the UK here and talks of a UK trade deal.....bad timing for Mexico.
Your view is oversimplistic and just wrong.
Again, slapping tariffs on Mexican goods would make Mexico respond in kind. American consumers would pay the price for more expensive goods.
Markets are doing well now but they are very fragile and always have been highly speculative. Sh*t could snowball.
Trump can talk tariffs all he wants, but he doesnt want to be the man responsible for putting North America into a recession. That would truly be unprecedented. One man...
Oversimplistic? lol. Nah, I've ran my own company for quite a while and know this well. Notice....the US markets weren't shook at all by the news. To be clear, I don't even think Trump is going to drop that import tax on Mexico, its a negotiating tactic, but that's under the assumption that mexico isn't completely stupid. If they keep it up i think Trump will use another method of getting that 14b, he has lots of options.
And North America into recession? If anything we could get clost to 4% growth by 2018. Don't buy into the globalist scare nonsense the MSM pushes.
4% GDP? You clearly dont know what you're talking about. How do get from 1.5-2.5 annual growth to 4% within a year? Even most conservative economists would say thats ? .
You would need a massive influx of immigrant labor, and a sharp rise in workers productivity to even come close to 4% because our workforce is getting older and baby boomers are retiring from the workforce in droves. Most economists believe that any projection around 2% is a good number until 2020.
The variables are just not there. It really isnt that hard to understand.
Trump's plans could double US GDP growth by 2018, Deutsche Bank says
President-elect Donald Trump's policies have the potential to trigger a new age in U.S. economic growth that could serve as a global template, according to a Deutsche Bank forecast.
Gross domestic product growth would be double its current level under an agenda that cuts regulations across a broad swath of critical sectors, enacts tax reform that slashes personal and corporate taxes, and calls for at least $1 trillion in improvements for bridges, roads and other public projects.
"This policy mix has the potential of reigniting productivity growth and raising U.S. growth potential," David Folkerts-Landau, chief economist at Deutsche Bank, said in a report for clients. "While Trump introduces higher uncertainty, this is better than the near certainty of the continuation of a mediocre status quo."
The impact may not be felt immediately, but once the new agenda kicks in it will serve as a "game changer for the U.S. economy," Folkerts-Landau added.
In raw numbers, that would push 2017 growth to 2.4 percent and 2018 up to 3.6 percent. By way of comparison, the economy has grown an average of about 1.6 percent a year under President Barack Obama, the worst recovery since the Great Depression. Obama is the first president since Herbert Hoover not to see at least 3 percent growth for a calendar year.
U.S. growth will bleed into the world economy, according to Deutsche, which pushed its 2017 global GDP forecast from 3 percent to 3.4 percent.

You would literally need two America's with decent to good economies to get a sustained 4% GDP growth.

I never quoted or used Deustche bank as a source since you made your 4% gdp growth claim. My only source is from the US Federal Reserve.

They're gonna regret saying that once they find out they're not getting reimbursed for that wall and end up paying more for insurance. -
Trump really needs to cool it with all this ? talking.
Most ppl around the world already think Americans are ? . But hearing the president talking all this ? , jus confirms it.
He is gonna destroy any goodwill America has around the world. When the next big terrorist attack on american soil happens, the world might not care. Cuz ppl gonna say, America brought it upon itself. Like its digging its own grave....like Malcolm said years ago. "Chickens coming home to roost." -
