6:37Now PlayingTrump has revealed his plan to build the wall, and it’s not good. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian, the hosts of The Young Turks, tell you why Trump’s plan is a bad idea. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Before Mexico’s President Enrique Peña Nieto cancelled the White House meeting scheduled for next week, President Trump dared Peña Nieto to not attend the meeting if Mexico would not pay the $12-15 billion completion of the border wall.
Add to that Thursday's news that the president will ask Congress for a 20 percent import tax on Mexican goods, a tax that Press Secretary Sean Spicer says could easily be used for the construction of the wall.
Trump clearly fails to recognize that Mexico has leverage in controlling the spigot of non-Mexican Central and South American migrants travelling north. Moreover, apart from being a longstanding good neighbor in most respects, Mexico agrees with Trump on several issues including: completing the wall, renegotiating NAFTA, getting rid of the drug lords and crime at the border, and cooperating on security against terrorism at the border. Confronting Mexico with insults does not recognize that the U.S. and Mexico are neighbors, and leverage exists on both sides of the border.”
