By Jay Brodell If foreign countries do not kick in and help remove their illegal citizens from the United States, they will be hit with high tariffs on their trade, Donald Trump said Thursday. The former president and Republican presidential nominee spoke to reporters along the border of the U.S. state of Arizona with México. He was replying to a question from a reporter about what he would do if elected president again. Presumably, Costa Rica would be asked to help in the removal efforts of its citizens. Trump also said that he had been warned not to make the trip to the border because the area is so dangerous.
