The border invasion continues unabated in the waning days of the Biden-Harris regime. But President-Elect Donald Trump is not waiting for Inauguration Day to issue threats to other nations partially responsible for the flood of people and drugs across our open borders.
The news report from Joe Kovacs at WND is below, but I wanted to state up front that this is the way. There will be fiscal conservatives who denounce the plan because of tariffs. I’m not a fan of tariffs as a general practice, either, but we cannot bear the full burden of stopping our border invasion. Doing so would be foolish and the easiest way to “encourage” cooperation with other countries is to give them incentives. In this case, the motivator will be steep tariffs and by golly it’s going to work. Here’s the news…
‘Ridiculous’: Trump Reveals Monumental Action He’ll Take on Day One in Office
President-elect Donald Trump announced Monday evening one of the first major actions he will take on his first day in office: “Charge Mexico and Canada a 25% Tariff on ALL products coming into the United States” due to their “ridiculous Open Borders.”
“As everyone is aware, thousands of people are pouring through Mexico and Canada, bringing Crime and Drugs at levels never seen before,” Trump said on Truth Social.
“Right now a Caravan coming from Mexico, composed of thousands of people, seems to be unstoppable in its quest to come through our currently Open Border. On January 20th, as one of my many first Executive Orders, I will sign all necessary documents to charge Mexico and Canada a 25% Tariff on ALL products coming into the United States, and its ridiculous Open Borders.
“This Tariff will remain in effect until such time as Drugs, in particular Fentanyl, and all Illegal Aliens stop this Invasion of our Country!
“Both Mexico and Canada have the absolute right and power to easily solve this long simmering problem. We hereby demand that they use this power, and until such time that they do, it is time for them to pay a very big price!”
Trump did not limit his attention to Mexico and Canada, but turned his concern to China.
“I have had many talks with China about the massive amounts of drugs, in particular Fentanyl, being sent into the United States – But to no avail,” he explained.
“Representatives of China told me that they would institute their maximum penalty, that of death, for any drug dealers caught doing this but, unfortunately, they never followed through, and drugs are pouring into our Country, mostly through Mexico, at levels never seen before.
“Until such time as they stop, we will be charging China an additional 10% Tariff, above any additional Tariffs, on all of their many products coming into the United States of America.
“Thank you for your attention to this matter.”
