Mexico is now working with trump, so is Canada. According to trump they won't get tariffs if they comply. I don't know about China

tRump wants fighting in the streets. He needs a reason to implement martial law. If he can convince the people that "illegals" are terrorists. While highlighting the few bad acts of terror, then his flock will beg for martial law. Once that is enacted the rest will be history.
