Mexicans living abroad, the vast majority of whom live in the United States, sent home a record number of cash in remittances between January and November 2017. Last year is on pace to break a new record high. Two main forces drove the trend: Mexico's weak currency, the peso, and President Trump's threat to slap a tax on cash shipments, known as remittances, sent from the U.S. to Mexico.

A day after Canadian officials said they viewed the odds of withdrawal as rising, Trump repeated his threat to pull out of the North American Free Trade Agreement if it can’t be reworked in his favor, the Wall Street Journal reported Thursday, citing an interview with the president. However, Trump said he was willing to be “a little bit flexible” about the deal until after Mexico’s presidential election in July. He didn’t elaborate on what that means.
Confusion over Trump's border wall delays spending talks
Senate negotiators say a lack of clarity from President Trump about his plans for a proposed wall along the U.S.-Mexico border is holding up talks to avoid a government shutdown. Trump has demanded tougher immigration controls and more border-security measures in return for relief for Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program recipients in the 2018 spending bill. But Republicans and Democrats working on a possible immigration deal said Wednesday they're still waiting to receive Trump's specific demands for tighter border security to hash out a deal.

Nafta’s Dead. Long Live Nafta. A Look at the Most Likely Outcomes
The president also suggested gains to the U.S. from a revamped Nafta could be used to pay for a southern border wall, which he has previously called on Mexico to finance. “They can pay for it indirectly through Nafta,” the newspaper quoted Trump as saying. “We make a good deal on Nafta, and, say, I’m going to take a small percentage of that money and it’s going toward the wall. Guess what? Mexico’s paying.”
Canadian officials said this week there’s an increased likelihood Trump will follow through on his exit threat. Under the agreement, the U.S., Mexico and Canada can withdraw after giving six-months’ notice. The sixth round of talks is scheduled to start Jan. 23 in Montreal.
“Montreal is going to be a decisive round,” said Wendy Cutler, a former U.S. trade negotiator who is now vice president at the Asia Society Policy Institute in Washington. It will be a positive sign if negotiators can close more chapters and agree to a way ahead on the most contentious issues, she said.
While she puts the chances of U.S. withdrawal at 50-50, “it’s too early to throw in the towel on these negotiations,” Cutler said.
Rand Paul: 'We don't have money to spend' for Trump's border wall .
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said Wednesday that while he supports additional barriers at the U.S.-Mexico border, he believes some of the estimated costs for President Trump's border wall are too high to justify. "I remain a fiscal conservative, even on the wall, so I'm not excited about spending $20, $30, $40 billion on a wall. I'm still a believer that we don't have money to spend. We're $700 billion in the hole," Paul said on CNN."And while I will vote for money for barriers, I'm not voting for $40 billion for barriers," Paul added.
