Um...yeah.
we know that, he's been talking about that for months.

I want him to do it. I’m sick of him getting bailed out by the good work of Democrats and him taking all the credit for it. Let him take the credit for killing the American economy. Let Maga get to the finding out part.

Trump says it's conditional on the reduction of illegal immigration and fentanyl. Here's some facts... Illegal immigration from Canada accounts for 0.5% of the problem. For fentanyl, the number is 0.05%. This is INSANITY!

I dont see ANY benefit, from any perspective. If anyone was really wanting to stop the flow of fentanyl, they would start by stopping the steady flow of guns headed south from America.

And the EU? Tariff my ass, too.

the intended purpose of the tarrifs:

Pressure Mexico to take stronger measures to curb immigration and drug trafficking.

Force Mexico to renegotiate the USMCA (United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement) trade deal, which Trump claims is unfair to the United States

Trump claims USMCA is unfair to America? The same trade agreement he negotiated and signed on November 30, 2018?
