US Demand for and illicit payments to criminals for illegal drugs in the US creates crime and social distress in Mexico. Perhaps Mexico should take drastic action to deal with the threat we represent to them.

the problem is that leaders prefer to deal with larger business owners\nsince that is a lot easier to talk to a single individual person\n\nso what that means is big business can deal with those changes\nhowever all of the other small medium sme landscape suffers a lot more\n\nfor a strong and healthy economy you need a broad variety of business\nacross diverse sectors types but also different sizes for different purpose\n\nsmaller businesses creates new wealth generation new opportunities\nit is the mechanism of entrepreneurship and narrow the wealth gap rich vs poor\n\nsmaller business also is the place where innovation occurs new products\nalso entire new markets and opportunities to improve the society local cities\n\nbig business doesnt like threats coming up from smaller companies\nso there is an inherent tensions here that is self destructive to usa economy\n\nneed protect sme business against fallout from tariffs below certain size\nthat then is complex across different sectors materials products to waive that\n\nthe implications was to focus only on the top n number of sectors by revenue\nfor example raw materials metals, building materials affects both large + small\n\nso that is why the dynamic tariffs idea as a tool for negotiating other nations\nwhich is also hideously complex, so its all a lot of unnecessary beuraucracy added\n\nwhich is then against the drive to simplify government those initiatives conflicts\ndont make all your sme business rising stars pay for that --> future big business\n\nthey will remember your policies and become another anti-government all again\nthat is bad ways

Already trying to make a deal with Trump before her economic crisis begins.

Mexico wants to act tough? OK, stay third world then. You're done. The cartels run your shit anyway. I'd rather go overseas and be respected than to deal with Mexico next door and be disrespected.

She feels that they have leverage because China is using Mexico to export their goods. If Mexico’s government was so great, people wouldn’t try to leave. You’re not dealing with a dummy.

How much has the Biden administration paid to Mexico ?? Last big deal with other Mexico president wanted 10 billion for central and south America. Drop sanctions against Venezuela , drop embargo on Cuba , and work permits for millions of undocumented illegals. Blinken and Mayorkas brought this back from a meeting last year.

be carefull with what trump is asking, Chevrolet ford and another american company stocks are down after president Sheinbaum mention the letter she is sending to trump, may be mexico should make a economy deal with china who wants to deal with a toxic goberment ?

The EU will be calling Canada and Mexico about trade deals quite soon. China is smiling too. Tarrif wars hurt Americans.

What kinda buttwipe jerk threatens our closest trading partners before he’s even in office? I remember how trump said his Mexico/Canada/US trade agreement was the “greatest trade deal ever”. Four more years of corruption and chaos.

Deal with your border and the drugs entering the U.S and maybe this won’t happen

The Mexican president can either get on board and they actually police their side of our border and help stop the fentanyl, cartels and illegal migrants or Trump will send in special forces to deal with cartels after they make the terrorist list. Far as the mass deportation? Buckle up buttercup because its coming i don't think Trump would care if they all get dumped out at air strips in Central America i mean they got themselves there to come up and cross illegally here so they can find their way to where they came from from there.

Why is Trump insisting on doing something that is so obviously stupid? Oh wait, I just read what I wrote and remembered who we are dealing with and then I answered my own question.

I'm old. You know how I know that for sure? I remember Laugh-in and I keep hearing Sock-It-To-Me, Sock-It-To-Me, Sock-It-To-Me. Tariff's arent' going to strengthen our trade negotiations with China. Quite the opposite. They'll just cut a better import deal with other countries. And it's not COUNTRIES that are ripping us off - it's CORPORATIONS. Trump wants you to believe it is countries so he can give tax cuts to corporations and dumb people won't know how badly that is screwing us over. It's like 'Over here is the REAL evil', not over there! Trust me! I'm your protector!!'

they should deal with the cartels before anything.

Canada and Mexico will not take it lying down! Enough of Trump and his crazy nonsense! I can't even imagine the extent of his ignorance on important economic matters and every other matter. This must be how insanity looks and sounds like. Americans will have to deal with him themselves. He is so full of it!

Mexico should let all immigrants enter the USA, from Patagónia until it's southern neighbors.. . It's not a Mexican problem, but a United States one...Let them deal with it. Let's make Mexico great again. Mexico first... ?

Free trade has never existed and if anything has only benefited the U.S. He's just posturing and throwing around his weight because he thinks he's high and mighty. He's got a few loose screws and will damage any relationship he has with Canada, Mexico, or any country dealing with the U.S. And the sad thing is, we're all going to pay for it.

And Trump being the narcissistic misogynist he is will totally ignore the Mexican president (because she is a woman, and he is threatened by strong & intelligent women) on it all. \n\nFAFO MAGA. Now we are finding out how stupid you all really are. You voted this clown in, now deal with the consequences and repercussions. Enjoy your cheap eggs, hope you choke on them.

Trump is warning companies now so they can immediately move back into America with a tax holiday. He knows what he's doing. The cartels run Mexico. He knows who he is dealing with.

Wake up this is all part of the deal. Slide of hand. This is the set up More to come. Let the man work

The President of Mexico. She is a female and she is very smartcheck. Her background because she knows what's going on. And Donald Trump does not know the laws of the global. World, he just wants to do what he wants to do. I'm telling you everybody. It's going to be the roughest 4 years of everybody's life. You voted for this man. You wanted him and he's trying his best to do what he said. He's going, but he is going to fail miserably. There is no chance that he's going to winanything that he says that he's going to do. This is all the world makes deals and makes things go round and roundfor everybody. In this globe, sincerely yours watch out for all the hectics. Call me from elect president trumphe is going to hurt our The way we do things?????????

Shop Temu, GREAT deals??

Of course, prices will go up, but that's not the main issue here. Besides, liberals are the last group who should be complaining about rising costs! The real question is who will suffer the most. President Trump has done this before—if you recall, he did it last time, and within 30 days, Mexico secured the border. She's playing politics right now, as expected, but I guarantee she'll eventually back down. The price increases you keep mentioning will impact their economy far more than ours, and she knows this. It's a negotiation tactic, and in the end, Trump will secure the border. She can't just give in or she'll appear weak. She has to play the political game, but I can guarantee they've already had discussions and are working on a deal. If you believe politicians are always transparent, you're being naive. They say one thing to the public while doing something completely different behind closed doors.

In 1930 American politicians decided to significantly increase tariffs \nand 25 other countries immediately responded by imposing significant tariffs\non American products and the trade war made the depression significantly worse.\n\nTrump's trade war won't likely lead to a depression but it will make things \nworse for almost everyone.\n\nExpect higher inflation, economic stagnation and also economic disruption \nas American companies can't suddenly and magically create new production \nto replace imports and can't do it as cheaply or they would already have been doing that\nand American exporters are going to face tariffs and sanctions imposed \non their products by other countries.\n\nThe extremely integrated car manufacturing industries in the United States, Canada and Mexico could be thrown into chaos.\nAn average car part crosses a border about 8 times during production.\nHow the heck do high tariffs deal with that standard car production situation?\n\nTrump would know all this if he thought about history or\nabout how the North American economy works or thought at all\nbut thinking is not something that appeals to Trump.\nInstead he just spouts out whatever random idea pops into his head \nand calls it policy.

She's too weak. She will lose. She just doesn't have that experience to negotiate. Just deal with it but don't let china drag Mexico to a fight because she will lose.

She will be wrong. The U.S. can easily win a trade war with Mexico as we buy much more from them than they buy from us.\nTrump will win on this deal and CNN will never ever report they were wrong.

I bet he’s so angry that he has to deal with a WOMAN president and one from Mexico ? ???

All Mexico has to do is to secure their southern border and to ensure that the Mexican northern border is as secure as possible so that foreign nationals from all over the world, do not attempt to enter the United States.\n Trump will keep these for nationals from entering the United States, so Mexico is going to have to deal with them.

So basically Trump's border plan, again is make another country deal with it - so instead of Mexico will pay for te wall, Mexico and Canada will pay Tariffs? Umm.. that's not gonna work and sounds like just like his non-existent health care plan, there is no border plan either.. FAFO!!

It’s the American people that will be paying tariff… not Mexico, why do they care. If USA not buying them, they’ll just make the deal somewhere else and then increase the price when US wants to deal again.

It would Take a strong woman to deal with him

Lol MEXICO NEEDS US. Trump should tear up NAFTA Deal. America is done be taking advantage of.

No point talking about Trump’s tariff threat now! Damage is done! Stupid American people have voted, now deal with it!

The US has spent trillions, maybe even tens of trillions of dollars to fight supply of illegal drugs. If you care about American lives, it's time to deal with the demand. Why is there such high demand for these drugs? Deal with that - and the supply dries up.

Deal maker.

Good for the Mexican president. China? What would happen if China was to call in all the bind money that they buy? Could we pay it or is this one of Donald Carpathia bankruptcy plans. At of the deal, lie, lie, lie. ???

Mexico President on fire?. Im from Germany and i can not wait for the EU to get more deals done with Mexico, Canada, Mercosur, China and outplay Trump. His voters wanted this wannabe dictator, and now they will proably get the whole North Korea experience?....

time to look at how sweden, germany, france and poland deal with illegal immigrants.

Whats the big deal? Just raise taxes.........

Political scam - No one is going back home trust me - Justin Trudeau made a deal with Jagmeet Singh

I think it’s time to ask a question… what did the US government get for allowing this!!??? They are sitting on the sidelines allowing this, turning a blind eye! So ask what deal did they make and with who to allow this. Wrong is wrong

I have to go through hell to live in India legally. India is strict with illegal migration. What's the big deal with deporting illegals from USA ?

Canada has 5 million of these to deal with . They are known as “international students” (the same way they call pedophiles MAPS)

GOOD...GET OUT WE NEVER WANTED YOU HERE ANYWAY....SICK OF WORKING SO ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS CAN COME AND BEG FOR HANDOUTS...GET OUT AND GO HOME AND DEAL WITH YOUR OWN PROBLEMS. PATHETIC

It isn't homelessness in Canada....it is illegal immigrants who don't belong in Canada in the first place and need to go home to their own place wherever they came from expecting handouts for nothing and forcing real canadians on the streets as well, and drug addicts who need to deal with their own problems and stop wasting tax dollars on their pathetic lives which they made by using drugs in the first place. We need to cut social spending so people get off their lazy asses and work otherwise it is their problem. I am done paying high taxes for this garbage. THIS IS NOT By accident THIS IS TRUDEAUS TOTAL INCOMPETENCE AND CORRUPTION. Please know what you are talking about so you report correctly.

Friends do not dump unwanted uninvited people on each other. Deal with them yourself. No is a start.

In particular I can't see Cuba or Venezuela cooperating with Trump's plan.\nThey're already dealing with so many American sanctions Trump's threats of sanctions will be meaningless.

I’m born and raised in Canada and it’s the first time I thought about leaving for real. Here’s the deal\n1-high taxes\n2- more taxes coming \n3- over regulation with small business \n4-poor health care \n5-worsening economy \n6-crazy woke culture \n7- mass migration of East Indians and Muslims.

It feels so foolish to keep trying bandaid solutions that harm the US labor pool. There's a couple of things I keep thinking about in regards to this. \n\n1. Most developed countries on earth are in the midst of or are preparing to deal with population crisis and depopulation. Strong immigration to the US stems this issue and is actually a huge advantage to the power and continuing visibility of the USA.\n\n2. Deportation and border control strike at the effect of immigration and leave the cause unharmed. People come to the USA because there's opportunities here, so why not make opportunities abroad?\n\nIf the USA were to remove benefits of dealing with china while offering massive incentives for moving manufacturing away from china directly to Latin America, not only would we be countering our Chinese dependency but we would also provide jobs at home and stem immigration. Not only that, but the businesses would be American and be controlled by Americans - a huge incentive to stay friendly to the USA.\n\nI don't know, just seems like our current policy and especially what Trump is suggesting are counter productive and stuck in a bygone way of thinking.

The number of detention beds cab be increased and doubled immediately. So no big deals!!
