Meanwhile, President Trump appears to be reversing his earlier support for a total flavor ban, announcing meetings with vaping industry representatives to find a solution that balances children's safety with job preservation.

He proposed that Mexico would indirectly pay for the border wall through excise taxes and entry fees levied on people and goods crossing the border. This approach moves away from the idea of a direct payment from the Mexican government toward a fee-based infrastructure funding model.

The hosts identify a "loophole" where individuals could theoretically pay a $1,700 IRS excise tax instead of buying insurance, then purchase a policy only after becoming ill due to the ban on pre-existing condition exclusions. They also warn that "high-risk pools" may eventually target gun owners and pilots.
