> There is very little LEGAL commerce going on between the legal port of entry gates. So those who talk about hurting their economy are telling us they are profiting from the illegal trade going on, whether its drugs, stolen property, or human trafficking.
Wow, I missed this from days ago (Apr 8th) on this thread. This is one of the most ignorant things I’ve ever heard. Mexico is our 3rd largest trading partner. US/Mexican trade is about 300 billion dollars now and climbing at about 15% a year. It mostly crosses in trucks right over those points of entry you speak of.
300 billion a year. You “very little legal activity” claim is absurd.
