BREAKING: Trump Makes Massive Announcement, Fans Are Shocked Before he even entered into the political arena, legendary businessman Donald Trump called for the building of a wall along our nations southern border to help protect our economy and keep us safe from those flooding into our country illegally. Not surprisingly, this has been one of the most contentious points of his campaign. Mexican officials have been quick to shoot down the idea, calling the wall impossible and unworkable. Still, Trump insists that it is going upand Mexico is going to pay for it. Trump finally addressed his plan of action in a memo sent to The Washington Post. In the writing, Trump proposed that he would threaten to change a rule under the USA Patriot Act anti-terrorism law to cut off a portion of the fund sent to Mexico through money transfers, commonly known as remittances. The threat would be withdrawn if Mexico made a one-time payment of $5-10 billion to pay for the border wall. Its an easy decision for Mexico, Trump concluded. Its been estimated that Mexican nationals living in the United States sent more than $25 billion back home in 2015 alone. That figure includes transfers from all over the world, not just the United States. Still, that money has become vital to Mexicos economyrivaling the revenue derived from oil and natural gas. Also listed in his proposal were tariffs, visa cancellations and increased border crossing fees. What do you think of Trumps proposal? Is it smart or far-fetched?
