***NEW FLASH **
White House announces 20% import duty on all goods from Mexico.
This includes the tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, avocados, other produce and goods you buy at the grocery store so Trump can pay for his stupid fucking wall.

Mexicans view a wall across the 2,000-mile border as a symbolic affront, part of a package of Trump policies that could cause the country serious economic pain. They include a crackdown on illegal immigrants, who send billions of dollars home, and renegotiation of the North American Free Trade Agreement, or NAFTA. The treaty has allowed trade between the neighbors to mushroom. Every day, $1.4 billion in goods ccross the U.S.-Mexico border, and millions of jobs are linked to trade on both sides. Mexico is the second largest customer for American-made products in the world, and 80 percent of Mexican exports ? automobiles, flat screen TVs, avocados ? are sold to the United States.
