Oh please, she brings up human rights, in one of the most corrupt countries in the world, with one of the highest murder rates, due to the almost complete control of everything Mexico by the Drug Cartels, she is terrified of the Cartels! Trump should declare them a terrorist organization!

? MEXICO will also hit back to the USA with Tariffs and will affect more to the people in the USA than Mexico. I’m glad this ? (Trump) got back to the US presidency, he’ll complete the ruin of his country, he still thinking and reacting with the liver than brain. This senile dude thinks we still living in the 20’s - 90’s. Help your own junkies in the US with the drugs, ?? has the most consumers around the world. Stop selling weapons to the cartels and that would help to both sides. \n*Welcome MEXICO to the BRICS* ? ??

DO IT! DO IT! DO IT PRES TRUMP. IF THAT 'S WHAT IT TAKES TO ACHIEVE YOUR PURPOSE, JUST DO IT! MEXICO GETS MONEY FROM THE UNITED STATES BESIDES IMPORTING SOME OF THEIR GOODS. THEY SHOULD HAVE NEVER ALLOWED ALL THOSE ILLEGALS FROM MEXICO AND OTHER VARIOUS COUNTRIES TO COME THROUGH THEIR BORDER INTO THE UNITED STATES. GANG MEMBERS, MURDERS, RAPIST, PLUS DRUGS AND WHAT HAVE YOU. THEY CAME IN THRU THEIR DOOR AND NOW THEY ARE GOING OUT THE SAME WAY THEY CAME IN. AND ALL YOU TRAITORS WHO SIDE WITH MEXICO OR EVEN CANADA, LEAVE WITH THE WHOLE LOT OF THEM!

Albertan here. 53 and up till now I'm relatively healthy and have had no need for extra health insurance. Until recently, then boom, I now have ms. The onset of it was sudden and was kind of similar to a stroke, but was found out that it's multiple sclerosis. Our Provincial health care covered the hospital stay and any meds received while in Hospital. Out of hospital, we have to pay for our prescription meds. Which, I now have to be treated with a drug that is Infused through IVand it's not covered. $26000.00 per year, so I promptly applied for Blue Cross(like a health insurance)which will help.

Mexico should help to increase the drugs enter the USA. As long the USA sales weapons to criminals around the world.

It is interesting that news don’t mention the part of the letter that outlines the drug problem in two sections: trafficking and demand. Trafficking is financed and facilitated by the demand and the weapons trafficking… that are a US responsibility. Each country should take care of their end on these problems. Nobody is talking about how drugs make their way to schools, parks, streets, bars and so many other places in the US…

stop your drug addicts, and the mayflower brought the first iligals invaders

THE WORST ENEMY OF THE USA TODAY IS MORENA THE RULING PARTY IN MEXICO FINANCED BY CARTELS AND COMMUNISTS TO DESTROY THE USA WITH DRUGS AND FENTANYL AND POURING ILLEGAL CRIMINALS AND CHILD TRAFFICKING ?

Trudeau brought in mouchers not workers ...unqualified and criminals who traffic drugs and increase crime

Mexico is not the problem with Americans taking stupid drugs. \n\nThe problem is the greed that keeps Americans working like slaves. The bad nutrition that keeps Americans unhealthy. There was a study done on rats that if you give more sugar to rats they because dumber. Everything in most food products have a lot of added sugar. Guess who is hurting the American people first? \nWithout braincells Americans will do stupid things. You protect American people with good health and healthy products. \nStop selling prescription drugs as well teach the American people the truth. \nIf Americans were smart there would not be people buying stupid drugs from mexico.

THIS WOMAN IS SO FULL OF S***, NOBODY ELSE GIVES A F*** ABOUT MEXICO EXCEPT THE UNITED STATES! And America might still have a drug addiction after we shut the border down. BUT WHAT WE WON'T HAVE IS THE MAJOR ISSUE WE HAVE TODAY, WITH THESE DAMN ILLEGAL IMMIGRATS SNEAKING OVER HERE UNDER THE COVER OF NIGHT...LIKE SOME DAMN COCKROACHES!

Trump is a dog that barks and doesn't bite, he likes to be a bully, in fact he is a pacifist, he will stop sending weapons to Ukraine so as not to attack his friend Putin, but there were enough threats and blaming Mexico for the addictions of Americans, our president Sheinbaum put it still, in fact U.S.A. created these synthetic drugs and their addicts, the laboratories and pharmaceutical companies created the substance of methamphetamines and fentanyl to treat diseases and ended up with their patients with side effects and addiction, the Mexican drug traffickers only took advantage of that new market created, they replicated the substance, that What happened to you for not creating an institution that studies and certifies each medication in search of side effects or that causes addiction as the institution does cofepris in Mexico and they still send weapons from the U.S.A. to Mexico to arm the cartels, every time criminals are arrested and their residences are seized, high-caliber weapons from the U.S.A. are found, and Trump says the guilt is Mexico only, since election campaign attacks to Mexico to get votes, enough of that sh*t

She has no idea how to run a country like America or any other big country. She should focus on trying to bring up the economy in Mexico and solving issues that affect the rest of the world. Like the drugs her country makes and all the guns they buy. She's out of her league.

The drug business is double the gain for somebody in the USA

Mexico gov. Export human trafficking and drug to US

The Mexican president is willing to work with President Trump. To make America safer from the drug cartels

Trump thinks of himself as a bully. He think Canada and Mexico are beneath the US. He will learn that these countries have backbone too. Unlike his suppoters, they recognize his lies and bullying. Mexico President is confident because she already has a deal with Biden. Trump is lying and claiming he made her back down. Not even knowing she and Biden worked together to slow immigration and drugs. He is the most uninform President ever. Always claiming he don't know people speaking on his platform. He has already started claiming things he did not do. Slow down at the borden, Biden. Economy doing better, Biden. Remember when he starts saying this is his economy, know he is lying. Biden's.

Why is the United States hooked on prescription drugs?we are the most druggist country because, Doc’s n insurance get the money! ? expensive medicine this is why most get recreational drugs! Cheaper than scripts!

Digital drugs are free on video sharing platforms no more drug business

How many Americans who voted for Trump 3 times are, in fact, drug addicts?

Why hasn't it been reported that Mexico was already helping with migration and drugs Trump is gaslighting Trump should be exposed about taking credit that he is doing something what's wrong with media news get a backbone

This is yes, Mexico has Mexico has killed a lot of people in the United States and make? Mexico was warned for years. Is Mexico's problems why these people are coming here? That's their people. How many people that has killed in the United States already and these borders? What are they talking about? Is they fault? It's not the United States fault. Canada is doing the same, then I do anything. They've been one for years and years and years and years. And they haven't done nothing yet. Still, American people are still dying from all these mamali's drugs. It's time that we put our foot down and stop thinking about the human beings that are dying instead of thinking about money. Money is not everything in life. It's just pays your bills.

The usa should stop supplying tye cartels with guns and the drugs will stop. \nEven cartels upload vidoes on YouTube about what they do and how many guns they have. \nI even follow one of them its time for usa to take accountability of those guns come to mexico.

Drugs do not come from the border Mexicans are not stupid to get caught with bags of drugs crossing the border most of the drugs\ncomes from ships boats etc.

WHEN YOU LOOK AT MAGA VOTERS LOOK AT THEM LIKE OSTRICHES BECAUSE THEY STILL HAVE THEIR HEADS IN THE SANDS AND BELIEVES THAT DRUG JONNIE TRUMP IS THE MESSIA. THE DICTATOR TRUMP WAS TO OVER THROW THE GOVERNMENT AND MAGA WILL DESTOY IT BECAUSE MAGA ARE ALL SUCKERS AND LOSERS. \nJUST THINK A MINUTE MAGA VOTERS. \nTHE RIGHT NEWS NETWORKS HAD ASSISTED YOUR VOTES BY SUPPORTING THE MOB BOSS TRUMP. \nALL THESE NETWORKS LIED TO YOU OR GASLIGHTED YOU IS ALL FOR THE LOVE OF RATINGS. \nDONALD J TRUMP LIED TO YOU AND GASLIGHTED YOU FOR THE APPRAISAL OF DONALD J TRUMP'S RATINGS.\nDONALD J TRUMP WAS THE ORIGINAL PINNOCHIO WITHOUT THE LONG NOSE TRICK.

Mexico no longer bows down! Time to realize US needs Mexico equally. US has the a drug problem NOT because of Mexico, but because in US we have forgotten about family values in return for making another buck. That's how America could be made great again, by taking care of the root cause of the consumption.

These wyt people will just move to a different drug. They should Just say no???????????. After all they are superior ????

Americans go buy drugs and transport from Mexico but AGAIN ITS AMERICANS BRINGING GUNS TO MEXICO AND BRINGS DRUGS OUT OF MEXICO. SO TRUMP KEEP A BETTER EYE ON AMERICAN CRIMINALS!!!!!

Why Colombian farmers choosed to grow coca plants? They grow like a weed. Why they choose to process the plant and sell the paste? Is easy to do it, and easy to stored. The best thing for them is that the cartels just go to pick up a little bag that weighs 3 ponds and pay a nought money to the farmers to support their families, right there in the spot!!. If the farmer's cultivate vegetables, plantains, or any other produce, is no way for them to move their produce out of their farms. Is not an infrastructure of roads or any other system that is helping them to get their products out from their farms and the worse is that they do not get paid a fare price for their products. You know who is going to pay for their product right there in the spot with out to go through so much misery? For pennies? The cartels!!!! Two pounds of paste feed their family for a couple of weeks. Those two pounds translate in to a couple of millions after delivery. Where are this cartels delivering it?\nYou guess right! USA!!! \nDid Trump actually have a plan to CLEAN AMERICA TO MAKE IT GREAT AGAIN, WITH OUT ADDICTION ?\nNo Trump and Harris actually had a plan and how they are going to deal with addiction to drugs in this country!! \nWHY??

The biggest partner of drug traffickers in Mexico is the United States, they sell them weapons and buy drugs from them, but since it is a country of racists they will never be responsible for their shit.

HOPE THERE IS NO TARIFFS ON DRUGS BECAUSE THAT IS GOING TO HURT THE US POPULATIONS ECONOMY, GOD HAVE MERCY

Mexico isn't your backyard-it's your trade partner.\nThis relationship isn't charity; it's mutually beneficial. Blaming Mexico for substance use issues ignores your responsibility as the largest demand drivers. Treat Mexico like a partner, not an incompetent employee, and take responsibility for your share of the problem. Blaming Mexico for the fentanyl issue is like an alcoholic blaming the bottle shop, even junior is an coke addict Claudia Sheinbaum has more balls than Donald Trump. It's about time someone stood up to n Trump and promised him a dose of his own medicine. Well done Mexico. Trump claims to be a gifted negotiator, but all he is is a self-glorifying bully. Claudia Sheinbaum has more balls than\nDonald\nTrump. But it is not Mexico and Canada who has a drug problem. It is America:) Americans don't realize how much they have advanced and grown, and know nothing of their marvelous culture. My president is an award winning environmental scientist with MULTIPLE degrees. We got it right!\nViva Mexico ??

Why should Americans and other countries have to be placed at a disadvantage because some weak saltines can’t control themselves and other saltines are the ones smuggling drugs into America?

People don't realize he's saying that because everybody's going to start freaking out in a way and who knows who out there on each side of the Border who's still in drugs to slow it down otherwise we're going to have a problem that's why he's seen it it's get people thinking he probably won't do it as bad as what you think

About 70% of American voters are drug users including Trump himself. Shame!

Biden on the 1994 Crime Bill, Three-strikes law, stop and frisk, 1986 drug abuse act crack vs cocaine, 1986 immigration reform and control act, anti Asian hate crime bill, House passes antisemitism bill with broad bipartisan support Kamala Harris I'm Not, Going To Just Do Anything For Just Black People No!

If there was NOT a market for drugs in the US they wouldn’t send them up to the US. Right, Don Jr?

She just literaly said, if you guys were not junkies it will be no drug problem. LOL??

Your media is funded by Pakistan I think...skilled ones and legal ones are welcome..no create troubles but you see the Pakistani what they done to britain..don't give wrong image ..Trump , British, Germany welcome indians and other Europe .. Pakistan muslims are make drug selling and terrorism

Why don't the Indians stay and make their own country better ? By being illegal in Canada and the USA, they take jobs away, and cause much trouble like drugs and criminal activities. I believe they should be arrested and deported to their homeland....India.

He turned around and said he met with mexican president and she agreed to closing the border and would be looking into reigning in the drugs coming into us. She put out this statement AFTER Trump lied through his teeth he is not even in office yet and the lies have already started UGHHH!!!!!

She has done nothing she's the problem with the boarder she must be getting paid by the drug cartels

She can't do anything drug cartels run Mexico and the Mexican government is not capable of stopping the cartels

Everyone don’t be surprise on the logic from cartel’s member… when you are hungry for money with no other way, you should rob a bank, when you are thirst for sex and can’t get a gf you should rape someone and break the law, they should not be put to jail and separate with their families because it’s “cruel”, they are “human being” and we should treat them with dignity and respect, I even heard drug dealers saying that it’s not their fault as they didn’t promote drugs, drug addicts willingly buy from them so it’s not their fault, they are entitled ??? there are legal ways to seek asylum’s but ofcourse those whom try to come in legally should be put on waiting list and let “illegal” immigrants to cut their lines

but, but, but, he. doesn't. care. All he wants is control, he wants to control every aspect of every former american citizen. I live in AZ. What are white people going to do when there are no nannies, maids, landscapers, construction workers, janitors, line cooks, farm labor, or anyone to work any other low wage position... white people are not going build their own block walls, or install their pools, cut their own lawns... we are just as addicted to paying people scraps to make our lives work as we are addicted the drugs that are sent north. this. is. insanity.

The lady thinks its ok to send heroine and fintanal to awer kids and thinks we will be ok she and every one that thinks that is dead rong we American people soport Awer president Trump big time on this how about we give her kids drugs and blame her kids if they take them and die .miss president anser me that ?

Us citizens literally thrive on drugs smh the cartel are working for us citizens the demand isn't in Mexico but in the USA drug education is important

Well, no surprise the brainwashed are here in a CNN comment section. The economy is shit under Biden and Kamela but you all think it is good, while millions die from drugs coming across the border.

Economic Measures\n\n1. Trade Sanctions:\n\nThe U.S. could impose severe trade sanctions, significantly affecting Mexico's export-driven economy. Since the U.S. is Mexico's largest trading partner, this would create economic turmoil, particularly in industries like automotive, agriculture, and manufacturing.\n\n\n\n2. Disruption of Remittances:\n\nThe U.S. could restrict the flow of remittances, which are a major source of income for millions of Mexican families. This could be achieved through regulatory controls or financial restrictions on money transfer services.\n\n\n\n3. Border Closures:\n\nClosing the border to Mexican goods, services, and workers would severely harm Mexico's economy and disrupt supply chains.\n\n\n\n4. Withdrawal of Investment:\n\nThe U.S. could pressure American companies to pull investments from Mexico, particularly in manufacturing sectors like automotive and aerospace.\n\n\n\n\nPolitical Measures\n\n1. Diplomatic Isolation:\n\nThe U.S. could work to isolate Mexico diplomatically by influencing allies to reduce cooperation with the country.\n\n\n\n2. Support for Opposition Groups:\n\nThe U.S. could covertly or overtly support opposition groups to destabilize the Mexican government, creating political turmoil.\n\n\n\n3. Restricting Visas and Immigration:\n\nHalting legal immigration from Mexico and implementing stricter visa policies could strain relations and harm Mexico's workforce mobility.\n\n\n\n\nMilitary Measures\n\n1. Targeting Drug Cartels:\n\nWhile publicly framed as fighting organized crime, intensified military actions against cartels could destabilize Mexico's security situation.\n\n\n\n2. Covert Operations:\n\nThe U.S. could conduct covert operations to undermine Mexican infrastructure, either physically or digitally (e.g., cyberattacks on critical infrastructure like energy grids or communication networks).\n\n\n\n3. Border Militarization:\n\nIncreasing military presence at the border could strain Mexico's resources and create political tensions.\n\n\n\n\nCyber Measures\n\n1. Cyberattacks:\n\nAttacking Mexico's financial systems, government databases, or key infrastructure through cyber warfare could cause significant disruption without direct military intervention.\n\n\n\n2. Misinformation Campaigns:\n\nSpreading disinformation to create internal conflict or undermine public trust in Mexico's government.\n\n\n\n\nEthical and Strategic Considerations\n\nThese actions would not only harm Mexico but also have significant repercussions for the U.S., including:\n\nDamaging the U.S.'s reputation internationally.\n\nDestabilizing the region, leading to increased migration and security issues.\n\nEconomic blowback, given the deep economic integration between the two countries.\n\n\nIt's essential to emphasize that discussing these scenarios does not advocate or condone such actions. Such hypothetical strategies underscore the importance of diplomacy, mutual respect, and cooperative international relations.
