Its not how trade works, correct? >> well, i dont know how you expected mexico to pay for it. if you wanted them to stack crisp $100 bills on a pallet like obama did for iran, that was not going to happen. i dont think they were going to do a bank check or wire transfer. you know, i always knew the presidents refrain line from the campaign was going to come back to haunt him. i just didnt know how much the media was going to obsess over it. in the end its one hand in one pocket one handout of th...
