Here's what we import from Mexico so EXPECT to pay 20-50% more on these goods/services in the next 4 years.


The top import categories (2-digit HS) in 2015 were: vehicles ($74 billion), electrical machinery ($63 billion), machinery ($49 billion), mineral fuels ($14 billion), and optical and medical instruments ($12 billion).

U.S. imports of agricultural products from Mexico totaled $21 billion in 2015, our 2nd largest supplier of agricultural imports. Leading categories include: fresh vegetables ($4.8 billion), other fresh fruit ($4.3 billion), wine and beer ($2.7 billion), snack foods ($1.7 billion), and processed fruit & vegetables ($1.4 billion).

U.S. imports of services from Mexico were an estimated $21.6 billion in 2015, 11.0% ($2.1 billion) more than 2014, and 50.0% greater than 2005 levels. It was up roughly 191% from 1993 (pre-NAFTA). Based on 2014, leading services imports from Mexico to the U.S. were in the travel, transportation, and technical and other services sectors.

The guy is alt-right, alt-facts, conspiracy theorist. It pretty hilarious when you talk/debate him. He's always claiming the economy is going to collapse (shemitah) a few years back, and is a big believer in Jade helm. However, Trump is different somehow because he loves America, up is down, down is up with this guy.

He's a black guy which makes it more funny. He's a really good dude, just all over the place :lol:

Damn now Mexico's Senate are working on a tax for US imports. The TRADE war is official now.

"If Donald Trump imposes a 35 percent tax on Mexico’s exports to the United States, as he has said, we have to impose a similar tax on the products we are importing from the United States," Sanchez Jimenez stressed on Wednesday, as quoted by Excelsior.

Jared Kushner, President Trump's son-in-law and one of his closest White House advisers, is registered to vote in both New Jersey and New York, while White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer is on the rolls both in Virginia and his home state of Rhode Island, according to elections officials and voting registration records.

Their dual registrations offer two more high-profile examples of how common it is for voters to be on the rolls in multiple states -- something Trump has claimed is evidence of voter fraud.

Along with Kushner and Spicer, The Washington Post has now identified five Trump family members or top administration appointees who were registered in two states during the fall election. The others are chief White House strategist  Stephen K. Bannon; Tiffany Trump, the president's youngest daughter; and Treasury Secretary nominee Steven Mnuchin, as first reported  by CNN.
