Fox, Calderón and other Mexican officials said the Mexican response to Trump could be far more serious than popular anger.
Arturo Sarukhan, Mexico’s ambassador to the United States from 2007 to 2013, said Mexico would likely retaliate against Trump’s “openly racist” positions if he were elected president.
“On the economic front, if you want to build walls and slap tariffs, you’re going to trigger a trade war with your second-largest buyer of goods,” Sarukhan said, noting that Trump has suggested import tariffs on Mexican-manufactured goods, including cars.
“If you slap tariffs on Mexico, Mexico will slap reprisal tariffs on U.S. products,” he said.

Go to hell MEXICO!!! Then we drop bombs!!!
Hell just do the people a favor and take the whole damned thing over and execute the criminals for 6 months, then give it back.Mexico can shut it or we'll push tanks and gunships 300 miles south into Mexico and build our wall there.
What makes me shake my fucking head is when people or politicians, or the media and other rodents, say: "He can't make Mexico pay for the wall!" or "He never says how he will make Mexico pay for the wall!" when Trump has said EXACTLY how they will pay for the wall. He will put tariffs on goods imported from Mexico and use that money to pay for the wall. Mexico cannot stop that.
