Trump must be disqualified; Americans can't be that stupid! Individuals incarcerated with less severe sentences than Trump should be released from prison immediately, as the law should apply equally to everyone without exception. The justice system, including the Supreme Court, is fundamentally flawed, and this is just the beginning. Trump's actions threaten to fragment the USA, much like his questionable dealings; the evidence is clear. He lacks morals, having faced sexual accusations from 26 women, and his connections with Jeffrey Epstein, who preyed on underage girls, raise serious concerns about his actions. Additionally, he has deceived and exploited construction workers with his projects, launched a fake university, and filed for bankruptcy six times. His most notable act is the first insurrection in U.S. history. This con artist holds the worst reputation both nationally and internationally, while the justice system and government have consented to a reckless individual. America has lost credibility both domestically and globally—all of this for one unworthy old man. The government can only blame the electorate for choosing someone who should never have been permitted to run for the presidency!

The lady thinks its ok to send heroine and fintanal to awer kids and thinks we will be ok she and every one that thinks that is dead rong we American people soport Awer president Trump big time on this how about we give her kids drugs and blame her kids if they take them and die .miss president anser me that ?

So many Americans in cheering against their own country. It’s sad but I guess when had times fall upon you all, you’ll understand.

Hey Mexico don’t send us water America gotta remember that they are reliant on Mexico for their food and first hand necessities. Im Mexican American America first but at the same time this is stupid. The United States cannot feed or support itself. ✡️ let them know Shienbam

American here: Couldn’t care less about the latest corrupt Mexican El Presidenta empty statements. Unfortunately Mexico is Venezuela lite. The adults are back. It’s clean up on aisle 3 time. ??

....the only reason Mexico isn't an American territory is trade. It benefits us to have a poorer country neighbor us. If we aren't gonna do trade together (probably won't by the time Trump is done) we should just treat them like another Guam.

Trump, despite his self acclaimed reputation as an “economic genius”, would likely never raise taxes on the ultra-wealthy and ensure corporations pay their fair share, as many currently pay nothing. Balancing the budget would also require curbing excessive military spendings, and if necessary, asking Americans to contribute slightly more, all to address our $36 trillion debt. It’s time to move beyond “art of the deal” Donald and focus on the real solution - CUT THE FRINGES AT THE BOTH END tough guy!

Dear President Sheinbaum. We the American people have voted and CLEARLY spoken on this issue of illegal migration and fentanyl... and now all should stop! Consider this..if you do not support the stop of Illegal migration, the stop of fentanyl into this country, we the Majority of Americans will support President Trump to stop it with Military action. Think about this. We are not willing for any more of our people, our children to die because you are controlled by Cartels. We are not willing to permit this anymore! The US has more that 10 MILLION times the necessary power to stop you.

It's called a trade war for a reason. Time for Americans to have some skin in the game. It's a small price to pay for long-term gain. The whiners were always gonna whine anyway.

Oh brother! She has zero leverage. MX has skrwed us long enough, JB and KH are gone now so no more of that. Its just time for half of Americans to grow a vertebrae if possible.

It’s crazy how many Americans just are trying to fight all the time some people are just mad because they don’t know how to read

Trump isn’t very Intelligent and acts like a Mobster. He doesn’t have any Critical Thinking Skills as he runs like a Wild Bull on the Plaines. Believing he’ll get kick backs on one or all of these so called Tariffs. It’s no different than what he did his first administration with many donations (kickbacks) from World Leaders! All of which weren’t reported and only recently documented. What’s happening in this new coming Administration will look like the biggest HEIST IN AMERICAN HISTORY, with the replacement of every government employee with (YES) Employees. Trump’s in debt for 2 Billion after the Election; so he’ll have to get his money back through every course possible! Which will lead to every American being put in the Poor House during his time in Office. People will have to remember his comments demeaning every American as losers as he Raises Taxes and Product Inflation go through the roof, while the wealthiest live TaX Free again within his Second Administration! “Sometimes in Life, you can’t see the Forest for the Trees.” It’s harder to see the TRUTH, by the amount of the LIES!???

I don't think anyone that voted for Trump knows basic math. I know you people on here think Mexico is going to pay the tariffs but the truth is the consumer payees for the tariffs and taxes of all goods coming from Mexico. They way I see it. The American people are just making Trump even more money. Yes please close the borders and see how ridicule's high your ever day goods will sky rocket. With the exception of guns the USA doesn't provide Mexico with any essential products. Again do your math people. On top of that. You can't bully Mexico anymore. Those times are over.

Time to start boycotting all American consumer goods, what say you the world?

Did she REALLY say that Mexico has done a lot to help the Biden administration curtail illegal immigration and help with the security of the southern border? Lol!!!! Record illegal immigration happened during the first 3.5 years of the Biden administration, in great part helped by the Mexican government. The only reason that the Biden administration(and Mexico) increased border security is because it was election time and Biden knew that the American voters were pissed. It is amazing how dishonest the corrupt mainstream media is. Wow! It's a good thing that most Americans are now able to see through the mainstream media bullshit and were able to re-elect President Trump and the Republicans back to power.

And the slowing and progress of Bidens economy is undermined just like that. MAGA time. I didnt know the depression and ww2 were the great times Americans voted to come back. He's bringing back the depression and ww3 like he said he wouldn't but he always wanted. Trumps goal is to bring America to her knees so Putin can have her way with her.

In 1930 American politicians decided to significantly increase tariffs \nand 25 other countries immediately responded by imposing significant tariffs\non American products and the trade war made the depression significantly worse.\n\nTrump's trade war won't likely lead to a depression but it will make things \nworse for almost everyone.\n\nExpect higher inflation, economic stagnation and also economic disruption \nas American companies can't suddenly and magically create new production \nto replace imports and can't do it as cheaply or they would already have been doing that\nand American exporters are going to face tariffs and sanctions imposed \non their products by other countries.\n\nThe extremely integrated car manufacturing industries in the United States, Canada and Mexico could be thrown into chaos.\nAn average car part crosses a border about 8 times during production.\nHow the heck do high tariffs deal with that standard car production situation?\n\nTrump would know all this if he thought about history or\nabout how the North American economy works or thought at all\nbut thinking is not something that appeals to Trump.\nInstead he just spouts out whatever random idea pops into his head \nand calls it policy.

Mexico has been imposing tariffs on Americans, and Mexican’s, for taking their cars over there for a long time. \n\nYou have to pay for a permit, along with a hefty deposit (depending on the vehicle year), to cross your vehicle into Mexico. You can cross into the border towns, but if you want to drive further in, you have to pay. \n\nThis is done to eliminate competition, instead of letting the market dictate the pricing. And if you don’t return your permit, you don’t get your deposit back and lose the ability to cross any vehicles for life. No, how is that fair?!\n\nAnd you STILL see Mexican nationals buying vehicles here, and just paying the hefty tariffs, just to legalize their American vehicles in Mexico. \n\nWe can just start there, and do the same thing to them. I don’t think they’d like that one bit.

These countries believe the weaker we are, the more life they can suck out of us. It’s wrong. They intentionally want to hurt us. Time for all of us to tighten our belts. They are poisoning us, they are poisoning our children. Allowing terrorists in. Allowing rapists in who rape and murder our daughters. Tariffs shouldn’t even be a question. The first question we should all ask before each Tarif should be, what’s the price of life? What’s the price of life for each innocent American they have “Indirectly” killed?

100,000 Americans die every year from the fentanyl that comes out of Mexico, the precursor ms of which are subsidized by the Chinese communist party. This stopped being a simple drug problem a long time ago

There are about 2 million estimated Americans living in Mexico currently. They may be forced out too in response. President Sheinbaum just met with China's president last week as well. not to mention China's in-roads and developing relations with so many central and south American countries. Not to mention Brazil is the B in BRICS which is now roughly 1/2 the world's population and produce more GDP than the G7 for the first time ever. God help us is Saudi joins them. That is where most of oil prices are determined also since our refineries are not setup to refine domestically produced oil (it is the wrong type) and it would take decades and billions to convert. Not to mention costly and owned by multi-national corporations. And forcing them do so amounts to semi state-control and is a communist ideal. They are capitalist institutions and are only beholden to shareholders. And those shareholders are not voting to take a loss.

The US has spent trillions, maybe even tens of trillions of dollars to fight supply of illegal drugs. If you care about American lives, it's time to deal with the demand. Why is there such high demand for these drugs? Deal with that - and the supply dries up.

I'm so glad trump won he has exposed Americans for how disgusting they really are..they hate the men who made everything EASY and SAFE for everybody NONWHITE but whatever, whites best stop playing nice now they got a chance at power again. Don't make the appeasmement mistake a 3rd time whitey.

As a 35 year old Canadian born citizen, at this point I would love to become a legal American citizen in any republican run state. Our economy is destroyed thanks to the Liberals and it will never be the same again regardless of who wins the election in 2025. Our prime minister is a chameleon that talks in circles about climate change while at the same time flying back and forth to switzerland to visit Mr. Klaus Schwab, who is founder of the world economic forum. Wake up Canadians for the sake of future generations.

We spend billions of dollars on them that's insane we have veterans in our own American people over here living in the streets and we're not helping them so no time to sweep off the front porch go Trump go

Would now be a bad time to point out that there were at least two mass deportations done by the US in the last century targeting Hispanics? Both illegally deported American citizens. Neither bothered with due process.

To all those supporting the cracking down on these ‘illegals’ there’s something I need to know. Tell me, if they folks had an option to immigrate legally, would they? Do you think it’s some kind of malicious effort to come here against the law, or are they coming here out of desperation? Many of these people come from places like Haiti, Colombia, or Guatemala. Places that the CIA and American tax dollars destroyed. Illegal immigration wouldn’t be a problem if we didn’t make the situations of many of our southern neighbors unlivable.\n\nI’m a Floridian white dude who was comparatively born with the silver spoon in my mouth, I understand America is at a point economically where the last thing we need is to be spending money on non citizens, sending billions in foreign aid abroad or on undocumented immigrants. But I also think we need to take some level of accountability for why this is even an issue. I speak Spanish as a second language, and ever since I got to communicate with many of these ‘illegals’ and got to hear from an older Guatemalan gentlemen of his time living through the American backed “Silent Holocaust” my opinion has change completely.

Europeans crack me up. 1. Crossing the American border illegally IS A CRIME !! 2. Ask any fly on an elephant carcass how he plans to eat an entire elephant. One bite at a time. One illegal at a time. 11 million people in your country is not an inconvenience, it's an invasion.

American a nation built on white supremacy shouldn’t not be surprised that’s its leaders and majority white population always revert to hating non whiteness. It’s time for people to realise that for America to truly be a democracy it must be reshaped completely so that the inequalities of the richest country in the world can finally be shared fruitfully but unfortunately there is so much division from libs and conservatives when in reality they both voted for hate this year either against Palestinians, Mexicans and everyone in between. settler colonialism in effect before our very eyes even now

Preach Senora❤❤❤ As a Filipino-American and A LEGAL RESIDENCE OF USA, ( Not a tourist using a tourist visa ) i have to go back and forth to the US immigration office in Philippines, i waited for months, stand in line for long hours a couple of times , interviewed by US immigration counselors, paid different kinds of processing fees, even had a seminar what to bring and not to bring in the USA,and a complete PHYSICAL CHECK UP AND VACCINATED TO PROTECT AMERICANS before getting in US soil..these happened not in one day only,takes months!! And i am proud AMERICAN ❤❤❤?

She's a wicked woman oooo,her self came illegal oooo let she take time b4 she be part of the incoming deportees oii wicked bitch the native American that own america u can see them talking like that oooo.

I heard soon there would be a hundred times more Indians, from India, than Native American Indians on their own mother land.

Are you sure that the man and his party you voted for consider you a Mexican American when they see you or hear you speak? Or just a Mexican who needs to carry an ID all the time?

Yeah , Those people are not from families who immigrated in the last couple generations.\n Seems to me the Russian social media campaign that influenced American politics is taking hold in Canada. \n Time to regulate social media

They keep talking about losing a huge part of the workforce with mass deportations. So Americans aren’t looking for work? I’ve worked for Amazon for 3 and a half years now. I transferred from Va back home to ny last October. In va Americans are being hired. In ny Amazon is literally hiring nothing but Haitians. We hire a hundred and twenty people every year between July and January for prime and peek. I promise you without any iota of exaggeration, every last new hire is Haitian. I know of plenty of ppl who have applied to no avail. They really need to say if you’re American don’t apply. They get tax credits for hiring them. And because of this they do little to no work because they know nothing will happen to them. So all of the work falls on us . Out of the 120 new hires this year and last year 115 are under 27. They try to alienate us , intimidate us,and are extremely rude to anyone who isn’t Haitian. These are young people who are on straight gang time. I’m a black man telling you this and I’m from the street. It took me 6 years to finally make 20 dollars an hr, they come right over making the same as me while I’m working harder to accommodate their lack of productivity and at the same time hope I don’t lose my job for standing up to their rudeness and intimidation tactics. But the media will have ppl convinced that these are hard working meek and humble ppl just trying to make a better life for them and their families. I’m 45 years old and every year of my life we have always had a block party every summers end . For the last three years none. Because my neighborhood has been inundated with migrants who don’t care to assimilate.

what a glorious time to be an american

Always remember, “The Trail Of Tears.” Factual American history. Very sad but true. Relocate Native Americans to the desert to perish, but when oil is found on the land they were confined to, then the money hungry Government wants to move them off of that parcel of land also. The Supreme Court said, “Sorry,” not this time around. Go fracking find your oil somewhere else!

since money is the only thing some understand, let me put it this way ... how much did the american govt. pay last time they put the masses in holding centers ??? $700 a day per person. OK, so how much did the spend per person per day ???? Humm that seems like someone got wealthy off of the misery of . others, appearing to look like some kind of useful program. a govt program designed to milk money from the gove to whose pockets ????

If you’re not for the country, next time they won’t be in the senate or congress. You can’t fool American people for ever.

Is the goal to deport every undocumented person or to destroy our economy? Seems they will achieve both at the same time. I wonder how many Trump supporters know that Trump properties still avoid hiring Americans. Even Truth Social outsources their coding to Mexico. Trump hates hiring American workers. MAGA is only for him, not you.

Mexican American veteran here. If my family members did the crime, and they get caught, then they got to do the time! \nThis old lady thinks like a productive citizen of the United States, not like a criminal immigrant with a victim mentality❤

Illegal migrants only help a few business owners why at the same time destroying most Americans with drugs crimes noise pollution and many other problems I hope the republicans get this done fast ??

You know it going to take lots of money manpower and time to deported people out of this country and it going to cost Americans over a billion dollars and farmers are about to lose money, people in construction and hospitality is about to lose money

This illegal immigrant knows she's damn well lying. So she claims she received her green card after waiting just a couple of hours and days, for the USCIS to begin the process with such an expedient turn around time. After her application was submitted, researched, investigated, approved and they also issued her a Green Card so effeciently. Get real, it's a government process in no way has any business being done with our government has ever ran that efficiently and swiftly.\nHer dumb ass will be round up with the rest of her own damn family.\n\n?She called herself a Mexican-American!?

In response to the judging of immigrants. Interesting how we rarely see immigrants on our street corners asking for a handout. Instead they're at work making just barely enough to eventually have their own business in a few years. Latinos are a workforce and stimulate the economy because its a lot of hard work to maintain and sustain this country. Who's gonna do all that hard work when they're deported. Maybe our spoiled and privileged teens? All industries will suffer a void in their workforce causing products and service prices to increase. Billionaires like Corporations, Trump and Musk are the reason you are not doing well, not immigrants. Trumpism is fear, hate, blame and shame politics. Immigration has been a thing since a million years ago, and it will always exist. People migrate. Americans use 1,000 times the resources more than immigrants need. Immigrants don't even qualify to for well-fare assistance. When immigrants are gone and the borders are secured, who will be blamed next for America's problems. Instead of focusing on the greater good and progress for all Americans, Republicans can't help themselves to use their power to address their xenophobia, blame, hate without concern of who and what suffers, families of the working class suffer, and our economy, not billionaires. Mass change and reckless actions based on negative emotions and Ego based intentions of one man, is bad for everyone. Negative energy + negative actions amounts and results to nothing but negative consequences and repercussions. Trumpism is no bueno for America. His approach to fixing immigration will hurt and break America.

How many times in the Bible (the book of judges) does it say “ and the people of Israel did what was right in their own eyes”! And what did that get them? a civil war against each other… just like the Israelites, we Americans are so lost right now… Prayers for our country!❤

Did you noticed she said as a Mexican-American? She said she came here and got her papers by waiting for a long time but that means she was an illegal alien. My goodness there are so many like her that try too hard to denounce their heritage to the point to have her family members deported? You can not make this sh— up!! She better run when they send immigration officers cause she does look Mexican ? pinche coconut (white inside-brown outside)

Within 48 hours of TRUMP winning BEFORE HE EVEN GOT MOVED INTO THE WHITE HOUSE. HE ALREADY CALLED TO STOP THE UKRAINE AND RUSSIAN WAR, Iran has AGREED TO CEASE FIRE, HE IS NOT GIVING ANY MORE MONEY TO ZELINSKY, AND INSTEAD USING WHAT WAS GOING TO BE GIVEN TO HIM FOR US. AMERICANS AND VETERANS WHO ARE HOMELESS, AND THE BIGGEST ONE OF ALL, HES DECLARED WAR AGAINST THE MEXICAN CARTELS. DID I ALSO MENTION HE IS LOOKING INTO THE BLUE ACT WHERE DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN LAUNDERING MONEY FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES. MILLIONS AND MILLIONS OF AMERICANS OT SHOWED THEY DONATED TO THE DEMOCRATS OVER 200 TIMES IN A YEAR WHEN THEY ARE SAYING THEYVE NEVER DONATED. YEAH.. HES INVESTIGATING THAT TOO. ALL WITHIN 48 HOURS… Do your own research and stop watching CNN if you are still a democrat

Doing it the right way means needing a beneficiary or money. You don’t get a green card for a job. You need to be married or have money and buy one. It’s super expensive. Instead of kicking them out they should be given work or student visas until they earn their place here. But kicking them out helps no one really. This lady is super privileged. She probably came here with someone who acted as the beneficiary. Now she thinks it’s her country. She didn’t even grow up her. It’s not her country. She’s an immigrant. She’s Mexican American. She’s Mexican. We live in wild times.
