Trump announces new Mexican tariffs in response to flood of illegals

I think it's a great idea to get Mexico off their asses and start sending this illegals back in the opposite direction.

AP reports in a surprise announcement that could compromise a major trade deal, President Donald Trump announced Thursday that he is slapping a 5% tariff on all Mexican imports, effective June 10, to pressure the country to do more to crack down on the surge of Central American migrants trying to cross the U.S. border.

Trump made the announcement by tweet after telling reporters earlier Thursday that he was planning “a major statement” that would be his “biggest” so far on the border.
