I own a Chevy Malibu. While it is listed as a domestic car, what is more domestic than a Chevy? The car is only 60% made in the US. The transmission is made in Mexico.

We hear the threat of trade wars and we might see some.
I'm sure Mexico is exploring how they could retaliate. Stop selling us oil? Their shipping cost will go up dramatically. We would increase domestic production and perhaps buy more from Canada.

As TRUMP has clearly said he will negotiate deals that are GOOD FOR THE USA. If, you are worried about good for Mexico why do you live here?????
I live here because the USA is my country just as much as yours and has been for all my life. Disagreeing with a conservative position does not mean that one is not patriotic or doesn't love America. On the contrary, I think America can be a better place just as you did during the Obama administration. Sorry neighbor, but "love it or leave it" is just a lame and meaningless argument. Don't forget that the majority of Americans voted for someone other than Trump, and much to your frustration, we aren't going away.

Secondly, in response to your last question (with five question marks) I've reread my post several times and I don't see any reference or verbiage that suggests that I am worried about what is good for Mexico. The post is about how the Trump Wall will be funded, and we all know that the American taxpayer and the American consumer will pay.
