Other than Trump winning the election, this is the best news all year. Mexico is threatening to retaliate against Trump’s border security tariffs, with some form of economic punishment. Pinch me, this is too awesome.
Keep in mind that around 35% of Mexico’s GDP is contingent upon exports to the USA, meanwhile only around 1% of our stuff exports to them. Then add in the remittances of dollars to Mexico, and more than 50% of the Mexican economy is contingent upon us just being friendly to their needs.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has no clue or comprehension about the scale of Trump’s leverage over her. This is like a spoiled teenager threatening to cut up the credit card dad gave her if she can’t go to the concert. Beyond funny.
WASHINGTON DC – Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said her government would retaliate if President-elect Donald Trump moves forward with his threat to impose a 25 percent tariff on the country, warning of severe economic consequences for companies operating in both countries.
Sheinbaum unveiled the letter during her daily press conference in Mexico City, which responded to Trump’s plan to slap 25 percent tariffs on all goods from Mexico and Canada in an effort to crack down on the flow of migrants and illegal drugs into the United States. Trump also pledged an additional 10 percent tariff on China.
“For every tariff, there will be a response in kind,” Sheinbaum wrote in a letter sent to Trump. The text was released by the Mexican Embassy Tuesday morning, which said the economic fallout of a trade war would harm shared enterprises, particularly automotive companies that operate in both countries.
“Among Mexico’s main exporters to the United States are General Motors, Stellantis, and Ford Motor Company, which arrived in Mexico 80 years ago. Why impose a tariff that would jeopardize them? Such a measure would be unacceptable and would lead to inflation and job losses in both the United States and Mexico,” she added, according to a translated version of the letter provided by the Mexican Embassy.
The Mexican automotive industry is particularly exposed to a heightened trade conflict with Washington. Trump has repeatedly complained about auto imports from Mexico, accusing the country of being a back door for China, and floated 200 percent tariffs or higher on vehicles from south of the border.
Sheinbaum said she hopes her team can meet with members of the Trump administration to “continue building joint solutions.” (read more)
This is just too cool. If we are lucky, I mean really lucky, Mexico will block all trade and economic relations with the USA. That would be awesome for us.
Can you imagine how the multinational corporations are looking at this? They have funneled hundreds of billions in investments into Mexico, solely for the purpose of having access to the USA market. Sheinbaum can make all those investments disappear overnight and simultaneously collapse her government.
If Mexico blocked trade with the USA, Florida farmers would be instant bazillionaires and the value of Florida farmland would quadruple overnight. There is absolutely NO DOWNSIDE to a permanent, fixed infrastructure border wall and enforcement that blocks all migrants from entry and bottlenecks them inside Mexico.
Mexico exists because we let them exist. Mexico is wealthy because we give them dollars.
Cessation of all economic relations with Mexico would be extremely awesome for us. The only geopolitical downside would be the possibility of Russian or Chinese military bases in Mexico in a few years because Mexico would become impoverished and dirt cheap within weeks. Sheinbaum has no concept of the leverage in this dynamic.
I shall put down my winnamins, and pray she follows through with her threats. The Mexican peso has already dropped 30% this year. lol
OMG, can you imagine what the conversations are amid German automakers right now.
I’ll shut up.
This is too much fun, and he’s not even in office yet.
Send them a bill for 25 million illegals at 1 million a piece. 1 T will do. We can fix it then.
I’d settle for just sending ’em the 25 million illegals.
Cut off wire transfers from the US to Mexico, all the money that the illegals send home would dry up.
They are not all illegals! Arrogant gringos!!
All the illegals are illegal (or aught to be).
All your illegals are belonging to you…Claudia.
If they entered our country illegally, then they’re illegals. Legal immigration is great, nobody’s talking about deporting legal immigrants. It’s not rocket science, Bozo.
I’m not sure that anyone here has said that all Mexicans here in the US are illegals. Do you believe all American “gringos” are arrogant?
–“They are not all illegals!”–
Tell me, kind sir, how many of the millions of Mexicans living and/or working here in the US are illegal aliens and how many are legal migrants? And what is your definition of each?
What free benefits and services does Mexico provide to legal and illegal “gringos” in Mexico? It would seem Mexico has far more stringent citizen and migrant laws than the US.
Do you have “gringo” gangs in Mexico?
Just trying to come up with comparable stats between our 2 countries and what makes gringos seem so arrogant to you. Please feel free to offer any counter stats or observations.
Yes they are.
No kidding, but if we took a 50% fee for every dollar sent out of the country we could pay off the national debt within just a couple of years.

I like the idea of 10 per cent tax on all wire transfers out of the country. And why should that be limited to just Mexico? Canada, Germany, etc. — any country. Love the idea of killing shady wire transfer store fronts. I’m sick of corruption and dirty money dealings in our country. It’s time for the chickens to come home to roost.
25%
I like it too, but 10% is not enough.
Ot tax it?
Why not put a charge on all the wire transfers going to Mexico? Reverse tariff?
10% seems about right. There’s a Laffer curve in there somewhere to cry about.
Or just all the criminals, we could throw in a few extra ones to boot.
Exactly,
We can call it…

Then we can be proud of our lawns.
I am almost 70 years old. I have ALWAYS mowed my own lawn. And if the day ever comes when I can’t I’ll hire an American to do it. Yes there are plenty if you look around.
Want them to self-deport? Put a 90% tax on remittances (the money they send back to Mexico).
This has always been step one, before deportation!
While at it, stop the Earned Income Tax Credit for non-us citizens that report enough cash income to receive more money to transfer offshore.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
In some situations the term ” Bitch Slap” just fits.
Indeed.
Noticie that Claudia deployed the typical foot stomper’phrase, “this is uNaCcePtaBle”?
Hopefully this phrase indicates she really DOES intend to “play stupid games” with Daddy T.
If she does, she will definitely “win stupid prizes” surprises..
And while her “stupid prizes” surprises will be delivered with the same trollish aplomb as the starbursts Merkel received from President Trump, Claudias “stupid prizes” will be far to less fun.
Nordstrom-Stream-Pipeline-Gone levels of less fun.
As an aside, thank God Sundance is back to writing about his PDJT winnamin overdoses again. 😍
Paging AMLO: Your return is requested in order to save what’s left of your country.
shows how dumb and stupid marxist leaders are…..”If you cut off my foot, I will cut off the other foot so you can’t have it.”
She’s Bolshevik. Subtle but important difference.
She cannot be Bolshevik because Mexico isn’t Russia and it’s not the first decade of the 20th century.
The Bolsheviks believed in creating a communist society by abolishing all private ownership of property, land, and businesses to benefit the workers. They aimed to establish a “Dictatorship of the Proletariat,” ruling on behalf of the workers, and refused to collaborate with other political parties.
Bolshevism was essentially Leninism – Lenin’s particular interpretation of how to implement Marxism by revolution / use of armed force in Tsarist Russia.
By contrast, the Mensheviks wanted to implement “Marxism Lite” via more gradual, democratic means, through the Duma.. They thought only the Bourgeoisie could properly convert the nation to a European-style social democracy.
Instead of an incoming phone ringtone I wish there was an outgoing “Village People” Trump ringtone. Better yet the “VP Trump” music should be blasting when the illegals are delivered back to Mexico.
I think she knows. She’s posturing to sound tough to her voters. But funny nevertheless.
She’s just saving face.
The math is not hard, Sombrero Barbie.
Justin Trudeau is also throwing a hissy fit like this woman. Trudeau is trying to say his country’s crude oil is oh so important to the US. I guess he has never heard the thousands of times President Trump has said he would open up ALL of our energy production.
“We have enough liquor gold under our feet to supply the United States for hundreds of years and pay off our National debt”
~ President Donald J. Trump
“PANIC IN OTTAWA: Canadian PM Trudeau Calls Trump Two Hours After President-Elect Announces Massive Tariffs”
Excerpts:
Just two hours after Trump posted the threats, Trudeau called Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate, and the two had a constructive conversation focused on trade and security at the border, an unidentified Canadian official with knowledge of the call told the New York Times.”
Canadian government statement:
“’Canada is essential to US domestic energy supply and last year 60 percent of US crude oil imports originated in Canada. We will of course continue to discuss these issues with the incoming administration.‘ read the statement issued by Trudeau, finance minister Chrystia Freeland and public safety minister Dominic LeBlanc.”

Sounds like a 12 year old at a Swift Concert.
Just wait until those young teens find out Swift is the same age as their mothers!
My niece went to see her in London and sent close -up stage pictures, because they had great seats. I haven’t paid attention to TS in a long time, and I was taken aback to see her costumes -lavender prom dress, hot pink jacket and booty shorts with knee-high sparkling cowboy boots – cute looks for a teen sensation, but a bit odd on a mid-30’s gal.
Plus, as shown by Wings of Pegasus on YouTube, TS is just lip syncing her concerts. So they are paying all that money to listen to taped music.
Or lip sinking, or whatever the appropriate case may be.
Evocative costume choices.
Trying to channel ingenue era Madonna, perchance?
They know, but apparently Swift is the one who needs her eyes opened.
Yes indeed! It really is unbelievable the stupidity of the games they play.
She could have easily said, ok we are going to seal our own Southern Border and turn the folks flying in trying to get to the United States away. But Noooo, we get this nonsense.
Recall the INITIAL reaction, when PDJT told the mexican envoy his 10 demands and he said “No WAY we are doing any of that?
Well,THIS is that. We are at that same point, and PDJT is about to say “yes, WAY!”
Trump is good at showing that all of the crap that they say they can’t really do anything about, oh yes they can! It’s so easy to do something about it when you care about your own people and country, I guess. Maybe she should care about her own people too. Every leader should.
Things have gotten so twisted that this has become unusual. And such a threat to these so-called leaders.
That gave me a good belly laugh.
mostly sand tar oul, as I understand, .the least desirable.
Then refine your own crude oil and we will do the same. Have a nice day, Sparkle Socks!
I’m all for that pipeline that Biden squashed becoming a more branching pipeline for American oil fields instead of Canadian oil anywho.

The German Daimler Trucks North America -Freightliners – has several $billion semi-truck plants in Mexico. It would be so awesome to see them crushed.

IS THAT Why the FIRE at RIVIAN in Illinois ?

THe Rivian looks like a crossbreed between a Tesla and an Edsel.
Communists typically don’t know what to do with economics. And she’s a dumb communists.
Karl Marx was a loser financially. Didn’t/ couldn’t support his family. Depended on others to support him.
Just like Bernie. First job wasn’t until he was 40 and it was as mayor of Burlington. Never worked for non-taxpayer money in his entire life.
You forgot driving the wiener-mobile.
I’m not sure if he has ever actually worked!
(take it as you will/wish)
Marx was an idiot. Seriously, economics is a zero sum game? So in order for someone to gain something, someone has to lose something? That is incredibly, staggeringly dumb. So dumb only an academic would believe it.
It is easy to counter the concept: if everything is zero-sum, then where did all this wealth come from, since we started with a naked ball of rock?
That is why I consider the term “Marxist economist” to be an oxymoron.

How the dickens does a leftist college girl named Sheinbaum end up in charge in Mexico? How much, and to whom, did the WEF pay to advance her to this position?
I wondered the same thing.
Mexicans vote left on both sides of the border. That’s why the uniparty lets them in by droves. Cheap labor for Rinos and cheap votes for Demos.
Because they assassinated all the competition!
How did a leftist college boy named Barack Hussein Obama end up in charge of America during the Iraq War?
BOOM. You’re on to it.
I think the days of claiming and feeling US superiority over other countries is slowly coming to an end. And good riddance, IMO.
You can see it coming out of the Ukraine thing. And also out of the middle east fight.
My take is Putin has lead that charge. And other countries, with young leaders, are gradually getting the picture.
To another country, what’s the difference between a US punishing sanction by Biden/Blinkin/ and a US Punishing tariff by Trump? There is none.
To me this young new leader of Mexico is standing up to a playground bully not a playground leader.
Trump needs to be the playground leader. America can be great again without being a bully
I disagree. Trump is unquestionably a leader.
I’m with you on that.
But there has to be a descriptor which goes along with it.
“there has to be”
Obviously, there doesnt.
However, since the importance of word “descriptors”/definitions has been acknowledged, hopefully this will inspire retiring the use of ” bully” until its definition has been discovered and understood so it can be used with precision; sans propaganda distortions
Best wishes!

But, at what point will the belief in American exceptionalism morph into American jingoism.
We need to be honest with ourselves, look in the mirror and ask that question.
Hopefully helpful feedback for the next “look in the mirror” self reflection session:
Posing new age versions of the infamous old “how many angels can dance on the head of a pin” question that obsessed pre Enlightenment European “intellectuals” typically reveals a similar reality disconnect.
Worried about a “morph” and a future with “jingoism”, NOW? 😂
Tragically, precocious, heavily indoctrinated, reality disconnecteds are missing out on jaw droppingly glorious adventures that are incredibly rare and irrepeatable.
Consequently, please, please start trying to reconnect asap. 😘
I don’t need to do any such thing. I know what I believe in, and it’s not hate/blame America.
She is going to have to play a part
in stopping the illegal immigration
which is coming from the shared

I agree on Trump leveling the the playing field on trade. If China/Mexico are doing something unfair in the trade area then throw tariffs on China/Mexico. I’m all in with fairness. I’m all in with Trump fixing immigration.
When he starts throwing illegal drugs into the trade/immigration problem mix, that’s when he looses me. Neither the Chinese government nor the Mexican government produce the illegal drug form of Fentanyl. In the US, the traffickers who sell illegal fentanyl are mostly black men, not Chinese nor Mexican.
Is a trade war going to solve the fentanyl problem?
Oh, bless your heart.
The stats are out there if you care to look for them.
Invading our country illegally and unfair trade practices and plantation politics is bullying.
You seem to have zero understanding of the situation.
Dear Juan Peso,
The USA and Americans are no longer going to be in an abusive relationship with Mexico, Canada, China, and Europe thanks to President Trump. For too long these countries have pillaged and plundered the pockets of Americans. They have stolen our jobs, industries, money, and dignity.
Daddy is home and he is very angry at what has been done to the USA. Now comes the reckoning.
And he’s coming in with attitude because he got cheated out of the last election.
I have to give you credit for guts, you knew you were going to get piled on for your comment and deservedly so.
The hubris of heavily indoctrinateds still in their reality disconnected Know-It-All phase.
My take, and hope, is that he’s bright enough, and gutsy enough, to eventually wake up enough to escape The Cave.
There is a vast difference between being a bully or being strong. Mexico has left the doors open to bring the US down. Same with Canada. President Trump shows strength comes by justice. America is having some justice right now.
OMG Orange Meanie Man Bad, y’all!
He could be “a playground leader”.
But nooooooh.
He’s being “a playground bully”
A bully?

Two words … end remittances. Why do we allow wages/taxpayer funded benefits to leave the country?
Even Diane Feinstein back in the day said “we cannot be Mexico’s safety net”.
“End remittances”.
Not yet.
Maybe never.
If President Trump doesn’t start talking about it, which is preparation for doing it, my guess changes from “maybe” to “definitely never”.
And I’m totally comfy with that since I’m focused on achieving the goals PDJT laid out while not being wedded to strategies and tactics to achieve them.
Figuring out the how’s is PDJTs job. Not mine.
Thank God!
We don’t have to end them. Just tax the cr@p out of them.
Remember when nutty Nan wanted to impose a 1% rax on every single monetary transaction for American citizens?
She wanted us to be China’s piggy bank.
I do love this. Now if only WWIII can be avoided….. Then the real fun will begin!

Despite a long comment in an earlier thread, alleging that in a trade war with China, U.S. loses, the reality is those things which make America the truly exceptional country that it is, insure that we win ANY trade war we engage in, with ANY country.
This is why our treasury did fine, for many years, with no income tax.
And those things which make America exceptional, although battered and bruised, discounted and disregarded,…STILL EXIST.
Uniquely, we have the resources to produce EVERYTHING we need; we don’t NEED to outsource ANY THING.
We have the rule of law, the Constitution and BoR, although our Justice system HAS become tainted, its still there.
For instance, a former employee of CAIR, the Islamist front group, stated they had recieved terrorist funding. They sued for defanation, then dropped the suit when they realised they would HAVE to reveal their funding.
Undeterred, the former employee sued THEM, and the Court just ordered discovery of all of tgeir sources of funding; the mother of all legal boomerangs.
Anyway, America IS the exceptional nation, and those things which make us exceptional, insure we win in any trade war, and they know it.
The fixed laws of economic gravity still exist.
What is BoR?
Bill of Rights
Oh no, US car manufacturers would have to produce engines, parts etc. here. They might have to replace all the manufacturing capabilities they destroyed here and built with new equipment in Mexico. They had better get a move on.
This is exactly the global hegemonic mind-set that is getting countries to join BRICS.
Yup, the rest of the world exists for the benefit of the USA.
Making more Ukraine’s” will not solve the problems the USA (Biden and the Democrats) have created.
I agree with you. There is something fundamentally wrong with this claim. At least that’s how it strikes me.
“Mexico exists because we let them exist.”
Economics, may be over your head.
Mexico will, of course exist, but at a much smaller financial scale. Big Manufacturers moved there to make products cheaper to sell to America. It is a huge market. If it isn’t cheaper to do that, manufacturers will move. Sadly, the average Mexican citizen will suffer due to her short-sighted decisions. She needs to close the border and work with Trump.
Also,she needs to cut her hair and grow her teeth. That horse face look seems to be real popular amongst low information left wing voters in other countries at the moment.
Economics, may be over your head.
“Mexico exists because we let them exist. Mexico is wealthy because we give them dollars.”
Well its true. Maybe not ideal. Trump offered Mexico a partnership. They chose to poison America.
A long line of globalist-first Administrations used America’s leverage over Mexico, forcing them to be the conduit for America’s financial/social/cultural disintegration and re-population.
In term 1, Trump pursued win-win deals with Mexico from a position of American strength but did not exploit them. As soon as he was forced out, Mexico chose to realign with the globalists who do exploit them, against Americans.
I don’t think any nation exists because of the US but I do believe they would not have what they have without using us.
Well, legions of dead US soldiers would disagree with you.
We did not create Ukraine, or their problems.
And wether you like it or not, what Sundance said about Mexico is true.
So so much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving! Winning is ever so sweet and liberating.

She has to be a Mexican DEI president. The economy, isn’t her strength. She’s coming at the US, from a position of absolute weakness. A ford pinto challenging an Indy race car.
Donald Trump pulled off an 11-point swing in Los Angeles County. 11 points…
“They aren’t even finished counting yet, and he’s already won the most votes of any Republican in LA County since George H.W. Bush in 1988. The precinct map is going to look insane.”
“I did that” ( Well, I helped anyways).
She’ll drop Shinebombs on us, quick head for the shelters! Run for your lives!
The “remittances of dollars to Mexico” are from Mexicans >working in the USA, and >sending money home to support their families in Mexico. … I doubt if the Great Donald Trump will start with ‘penalizing’ people working for a living. There are plenty of ‘respectable’ appearing businessmen that want ‘cheap’ labor. = These are the exploiters that have the most to fear from the Donald Trump administration.
The Great Donald Trump will start with kicking-off the ‘Gravy Train’ -> the people that do NOT contributing very much to our country. … Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy are going to be tasked with cutting >government waste first.
+Donald Trump is planning to restrict illegal fentanyl and the other illegal drugs coming into the United States. If Trump is successful with restricting the usage of illegal drugs, the loudest wailings will be heard from ‘paid-off’ politicians, and other criminals in the ‘blue’ cities of America. … Cheap illegal drugs, big welfare checks, and more and more deviant behavior is the promise of the Democrat politicians. [And yes, there are many crooked RINO Republican politicians in collusion with the Democrats.]
[Of course, the illegal drug dealers in China, Mexico, and around the world might be heard wailing too, when the illegal drug market in the USA is restricted. … The War Mongers making bank on death, will hopefully go out of business when The Great Donald Trump restricts the USA participation in the ‘useless and endless’ wars.]
Glad you agree that President Trump is pretty great.
These winnamins will end in 4 years if the Elections, Justice and the Bureaucracy aren’t fixed.
But still, I’ll take them and enjoy the now ‘cause tomorrow is another day!
Oh no not the pinata imports!
If remittances to Mexico got blocked….she could end up with riots and unrest from within. The last that I read, remittances coming in from the U.S were the second largest source of income in the Mexico.
—
$63 billion in remittances sent to Mexico, mostly from US in 2023
https://www.yahoo.com/news/mexican-president-tells-trump-tariffs-141300133.html
The challenge will be for the US to restore all of the manufacturing capabilities it shuttered over the last several decades. It can be done but not overnight.
Maybe not overnight but fast. It took Elon Musk 10 m0nths to built a Tesla plant in communist China.
Which is why we need to hamstring the bureaucracy.

That would be like Donld Trump talking some sense into Kameltoe.
Tax all remittances to Mexico that originate in the U.S., many are from illegals. A 25% surcharge on those would produce lots of payback revenue.

Sounds like a “ticking Sheinbaum” if you ask me.
You do understand that Not All illegals are Mexican? Many are from obamas kenya. China…Haiti….Venezuela and many more countries. Brought to America by communist democrats . Military age men 80% .
CUT THE CORD
How about PDT and Tom Holman just give all illegals 60 days to self deport starting right now. Anyone left after 01/24/2025 gets rounded up at gun point and transported to the Mexican border where they illegally entered the US from
If they cut off ALL
the freebies, most of them would self-deport.
The are many who won’t self-deport. Those would be the cartel operatives, the foreign sleeper-cells and the ones with really good fake ID paperwork. Those are all well financed while here.
Those are the ones who most need to be gone ASAP. Clear out the run-of-the-mill economic migrants and we get rid of the camouflage the really bad actors are hiding amongst. Make them easier to find and flush.
You nail it Gulag escapee.
That’s why Trump will be deporting the criminals first. Cutting off freebies would self-deport most of the rest, so ICE won’t have to bother with them and can concentrate on the really bad guys.
And ended “citizenship” birthright, i.e. anchor babies.
This is the quickest most effective means toward getting rid of parasites. Starve them out.
Leave, go home, then apply to enter legally. If they don’t make us pay to round them up and deport them but leave voluntarily that will be taken into consideration.
My family came over legally at the close of the 19th century when there was no federal or state sponsored support for immigrants.
They contributed to building and making America great. They helped build the infrastructure we Americans take for granted in NYC, bridges and tunnels, and the naval shipyards at Hampton Roads and Newport News, all while supporting and educating their families.
They did not expect or want handouts.
That and if they self deport, will get timely consideration when/if re-entering legally. If they don’t self-deport, then maybe have a ten year wait before they can re-apply.
Naw. Any wants to come back they first payback all the $ we spent on them. They can do it. We’ve seen them be confrontational with us about how much they had to pay the cartels to get here. Well HELLO, half of our citizens don’t have a prayer of putting those amounts of monies together no matter how many jobs they work.
If self deport, we’ll reconsider, if no criminal record, in 5-10 years.
If we have to come get you, you are never coming back, period.
Like George Bush’s amnesty for all law ibiding illegals.
Ten years? How about never?
But they enter our country illegally through Mexico. Mexico allows it. They are
capable of stopping it
just like they did when Trump was president
last time.
Eisenhower did it after WWII. Was done then, can be done now.
most illegals pass freely thru Mexico
and Mexico PROFITS
they are the enabler
stop trying to wash their hands
So you are the bringer of the light telling us we don’t understand.
We realize perfectly that all are not Mexican , but Mexico fast tracked them right thru Mexico and right across OUR border. You understand that it is OUR border not Mexico?
Do you understand also what MAGA stands for? We are not gonna play with everyone’s feelings trying to rule us.
Go to your special room with your binky and put your helmet on. I do not want you to see the caravans going south.
Almost all Central and South American countries are complicit. Slap tariffs on all of them. Slap tariffs on all countries from which any illegal is from. Look back at what this country did during WWII. We put industrialized every country in the world. We then built up the countries we bombed the crap out of, unfortunately to our own detriment. We can out business and out industrialize any country, that’s why the globalist asshats have been forcing manufacturing to other countries. They know what we are capable of and will show them again starting 1/20/25.
NGO’s funded by American taxpayers are the real culprit in the illegal crap. Soros to of course .
Read the following and explain which citizens are happier! American or Mexican? Gracias Dios
According to the last data point published, Mexico per capita debt in 2022 was 6,256 dollars per inhabitant.
In 2023, total debt owed by the government is equivalent to $102K per person in the US.
Winner is Super Pesos
True, but all that you mentioned, mostly come through Mexico to get here, a Mexico’s gov’t is complicit. PDJT doing the right thing to hit them hard if they keep facilitating…
Mexico is our enemy.
These illegals crossed the Mexican border into the USA; facilitated by Mexico. They were in Mexico. It’s narco-state Mexico’s problem. Mexico is complicit in the deadly trafficking.
Cut off all remittances on day one, 01/21/25.
Then we’ll see how many illegals hang around.
They come thru Mexico though with the help of the cartels and the Mexican government.
But what is the point of your post?
That we have nothing to worry about, because Mexicans are only a portion of the illegals?
Or?
The article mentioned Mexico in particular because they are doing literally NOTHING to stop the invasion across our Southern border. Many Mexican officials are on the payroll of the cartels who traffic women and girls for sex trade along with drugs that are poisoning our citizens. Roughly 100,000 Americans – our brothers, sisters, sons and daughters DIE every year from fentanyl overdoses. 100% of this comes across the Mexican border. The 18-22 million illegal aliens who crossed into our country during the Biden years mostly crossed from the Mexican side (also Canada, which is why they’re also a target of this tariff regimen).
All illegals must be sent back when whence they came, no matter who they are, how long they’ve been here, how old they are. Minor children with “birthright citizenship” (a grotesque misreading of the 14THh Amendment, which really only covers freed slaves) must accompany their parents unless a suitable guardian who takes full fiduciary responsibility can be found.
We MUST take back control of our country.
The people who die from fentanyl buy it so it’s their own fault.
mexico facilitated the invasion at the southern border. That is an act of war, not what you normally expect from a trading partner.
