    Even if it is built is it going to work?

        Yes. The POTUS is not known for the accuracy of his statements.

          He's only been in a couple of days and is doing everything he's said so far.

            He's signed a lot of things. Let's see what actually happens. As for building this insane wall, how on Earth do you think he will make Mexico pay for it? By invading them?

              He's already said how. He will just put it on exports. They get 80% of every thing from the states.

                So you don't think they'll go elsewhere then? You think they'll just swallow that?

                And by the way, the U.S. goods trade deficit with Mexico was $58 billion in 2015. So work that out.

                    Well it's a fairly large planet with rather a lot of countries producing all the goods and more that America produces. Maybe they'll simply start trading with them, don't you think?

                      Just knew it wouldn't take long for this thread to veer off topic

                      It runs the risk of being moved to 'QPR FREE ZONE' unless it returns pronto to the OP's highly tenuous QPR connection!

                            Trumps an idiot and he doesnt even realise it. He keeps going on about america first without even thinking that countries will just trade with russia or china instead as is the case of australia and nz after trump pulled out of the trade deals the US had with them.

                            As for the wall, no way will it get built and if it starts you can guarrentee that the cartels wont be happy about it. Lots of anericans will die building the wall

                              I have the best players. The very best. People are always saying to me, "Donald, you have the best players." The other teams' players are pathetic. Sad!

                                Going OT but there wasn't a deal with Australia and NZ. The TTIP was in negotiating phase. China were never part of it (neither was Russia). So Trump abandoning this doesn't change anything. Mexico is completely screwed. 80% of their trade is with the USA. They get US $26 bn a year in money sent back to them from family members in the US, there are lots of ways in which the US could tax Mexico. The wall will be built (using US cement, hence creating more US blue collar jobs) as will the pipelines (Keystone and Dakota Access) because he is insisting on them using US steel. This means that there will be more jobs in the mid-west which are some of the states that voted for him, whilst at the same time allowing him to invest in infrastructure. As someone who has made his name buildings tower blocks, building larger and more impressive structures will appeal to him.

                                I think that as a chairman he would have been an absolute #### (like Daniel Levy), but like Levy he would have improved the team and squad, and done well in transfer dealings.
