.@realDonaldTrump U.S. goods and services trade with Mexico totaled $583.6 billion in 2015.
This is taking advantage how?
Mexico has taken advantage of the U.S. for long enough. Massive trade deficits & little help on the very weak border must change, NOW!

@realDonaldTrump U.S. exports of services to Mexico were $30.8 billion in 2015. This is an increase of 200% since 1993 (before NAFTA). -
.

@simonhedlin@realDonaldTrump Simon, you seem pretty smart. Can you tell me how much foreign aid the USA gives to Mexico each year? Could it be withheld to pay for wall? -
.
@DavidWLoweBooks We give Mexico about $150 million or so per year. So, if the wall costs $15 billion, it will take 100 years to pay it off.

@realDonaldTrump You’re right Donald. Make all that fruit from Mexico way more expensive. Call it the Trump Diet. Fruit is so overrated. Sad -
@EmmaKennedy@realDonaldTrump Do you think anyone in a red state has ever eaten a vegetable? -
@Aldopadilla@EmmaKennedy@realDonaldTrump we eat red meat -
@DavidBo21490238@Aldopadilla@realDonaldTrump Ever *tried* a carrot? -
@EmmaKennedy@Aldopadilla@realDonaldTrump sometime we put carrots and potatoes on our meat -
@DavidBo21490238@Aldopadilla@realDonaldTrump Steady on David. That’s crazy talk. -
@EmmaKennedy@Aldopadilla@realDonaldTrump sometimes we just eat the meat if the carrots get too expensive -
@DavidBo21490238@Aldopadilla@realDonaldTrump You can’t trust a carrot David. They’re sneaky fuckers. - 12 more replies

@realDonaldTrump you're starting a trade war, which will only hurt U.S. consumers + industries (eg Agriculture) that export goods to Mexico. -
@josephamodeo@realDonaldTrump - Solve the problem. Mexico grows their own, the US grows our own. Farmers will love it. -
@D16136Deal your tweet demonstrates a very limited understanding of trade and why international trade is critical.@realDonaldTrump -
@josephamodeo@realDonaldTrump - And your tweets just show how much of an American you are. -
@D16136Deal what does that even mean? If that's your only response, that says a lot. You don't get to decide whether someone is patriotic! -
@D16136Deal tired of ppl who think they "own" what it means to be American: that demonstrates disregard for what it means to be American! -
@josephamodeo@D16136Deal so in your opinion, what does being American mean? I am not being a smart ass, just curious? -
@trmorey041270, the only definition in US Constitution of "an American" is set out in Section 1 of the 14th Amendment (1868).@D16136Deal - 8 more replies
