He renegotiated NAFTA, which will provide more tax dollars to the government. So technically Mexico will be paying for it, we just have to pry those tax dollars out of the Democrats' hands before they give it back to Mexico.

I guess Mexico will be paying for Texas now too? Just about as likely... That USMCA is about the same as NAFTA, just semantically different..

1. Do you have any theoretical specifics regarding how the USMCA will provide more tax dollars from Mexico? (If you do, it should probably be taken into consideration that Trump permanently lowered the corporate tax by 14%..)
2. Assuming that you do have a specific way it will theoretically work, what is the timeline?
because right now he's trying to spend $5billion worth of money that isn't there.

Yolo, Trumpkins aren't big on specifics, but yours is a good question and you make good points. He told us constantly Mexico would pay for his wall, now he wants US, the U.S. taxpayers to pay, bottom line.

Pretty much, but I don't know about the owning part. Though I do wonder who he has in mind to do the contracts. imgflip.com/i/2pka3s
