Trump suggests tariffs against nations including China over illegal immigration

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump said on Thursday he may impose tariffs on countries, including China, that do not curb the flow of undocumented immigrants from their territory to the United States, if he wins the U.S. election in November.
Trump made the remarks at an event in the border election battleground state of Arizona while responding to an audience question and did not specify the size of tariff he would impose in such a scenario.
Asked about ways he would curb the flow of migrants crossing into the U.S. illegally, Trump said: “We have tremendous economic power.” Trump said if a country, such as China, does not help to curb the flow of immigrants into the U.S., “we have these things called tariffs.”
Trump warned if other countries do not help to reduce it, then he could “tariff the hell out of that country” if re-elected.
