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.

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.
