Mexico gets a large part of its GDP bucks from remittances from the US and a large part of it passes through the social welfare system. That may be a problem for the beloved President of Mexico.

The Spanish folks may be pissed off at Minnesota Somalies and democrats

If you aren’t a citizen, you should not be getting welfare from the government of any kind.

Remittances account for 4% of Mexico’s GDP! That's significant and will be felt!
Hopefully Trump stands by this....

This is great - but how will it be enforced?

Would almost rather tax all out-of-country remittances at 50% and be done with it.

Force the transfer to have an IRS return current matching up remittances to welfare payments

I'm willing to pay their fare to parts unknown never to return.

I don’t understand how this could even be controversial.
