I never gave you a figure.

First, are you suggesting that ALL steel tariffs are paying for the wall, or only Mexico's share of it?

You cant even keep your lies straight anymore.

2nd, we import steel from 85 countries globally. We imported $15.4B in steel as of September 2018. Rough math puts that at a total of $20.53B in total steel imports for 2018 (Ill do the math for Shoe's $29B for 2017, too). ~11% of that came from Mexico, putting our two figures at $2.26B and $3.19B in TOTAL STEEL IMPORTS FROM MEXICO.

25% of those figures are $565M and $797M, respectively in tariffs collected on Mexican steel.
