    Trickle down economics will never reach company drivers. You might get some new trucks or a new warehouse, but nothing for the drivers.

    18 wheels and a dozen roses is a myth
    Charlie never got a gold watch or an RV
    He didn't retire after 30 years
    They found him slumped over the wheel last week
    Just like they'll find me.
    Charlie was 79 and broke
    All six wives left him

    As president Mr Trump does not have the authority to spend a dime not appropriated by the congress for a wall or for that matter too much of anything. Actually Trumps hands are tied on NAFTA as well. NAFTA is a treaty between Canada, Mexico and the US and was ratified by the US Senate using their authority under the constitution. I am not an expert on treaties but from what I see again it will take congressional action to change or repeal it.

    Trumps gonna take the list of ppl Obama got to snitch on themselves.

    If they help build the wall they get to stay. The rest get to go back.

    That's how mexico is paying for the wall.

    I would laugh so freaking hard if that happens. Probably be a pretty good wall! I hire Mexicans to do my roofs! Fantastic work!

    The funding for the wall was approved by congress during the Bush administration, we just used it for combat instead...
    And Trump has a republican house and senate, he might be able to actually get things done.

    Republican in name only. There is still a major divide within the party between the established politicians in Congress and the populist in the White House. One wants open trade deals the other wants to rip up TPP and NAFTA. i expect a lot of infighting and reality checks within the first 100 days.

    That's true
    In some ways, Trump has been as much a Democrat as Clinton, and until recently, supported her.
    If Trump had an unfortunate accident, I'd look to Republicans with the skank eye.
    They'd much rather have Pence and the Democrats would rather have Trump.

    You would report the company to ICE, ICE would then audit their employees. The majority of businesses are now required to use eVerify, ICE will look to see if they are using it, if so, reconcile their employees to who was checked, and there is usually an IRS Auditor with them. The IRS Auditor is to catch under the table pay.
