Can we even handle this much winning, bros?
https://www.cnbc.com/2025/02/03/trump-tariffs-mexico-canada-china-sheinbaum-responds.html Trump pauses Mexico tariffs for one month after agreement on border troops
Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum said the United States agreed to pause for one month the implementation of President Donald Trump’s tariffs on goods from her country.
Sheinbaum said Mexico will immediately reinforce its northern border with 10,000 National Guard soldiers “to prevent drug trafficking from Mexico to the United States, particularly fentanyl.”
Mexico President Claudia Sheinbaum said Monday that the United States has agreed to pause for one month the implementation of President Donald Trump’s tariffs on goods from her country.
Sheinbaum also said in a tweet, that after speaking with Trump, Mexico “will immediately reinforce” its northern border with the U.S. with 10,000 National Guard soldiers “to prevent drug trafficking from Mexico to the United States, particularly fentanyl.”
“We had a good conversation with President Trump with great respect for our relationship and sovereignty; we reached a series of agreements,” Sheinbaum wrote in the tweet, according to a translation from Spanish.
“The United States is committed to working to prevent the trafficking of high-powered weapons to Mexico,” she wrote.

But Trudeau wont, he's a failed politician on his way out. Canada literally just announced they will be cutting internet service to thousands of their own citizens instead of trying to reduce drug trafficking, because these thousands of citizens are using starlink for internet as they have no other options where they live.
This is the type of people Canada has leading their country

>>1380415 I'm going to work this very simply to you.. the CNBC article does not say there will be 10k Mexican troops at the American border.
It says they are deploying 10k troops to the American border. What you try to argue about where Mexican troops were deployed 4 years ago, what's happening now is whatever the current number is of Mexican troops currently stationed at the American border is increasing by 10,000, and they are there to stop fentanyl from entering the US.
I'm sorry, but trump won this one
Anonymous
>>1380418 Not only do we not know if these are truly going to be additions, but this will likely have next to no impact on fentanyl smuggling since it already gets through the border via legal channels (so how many troops are there don't matter as long as they can just sneak it past the ones searching them) or from boats from china.
But hey now we gotta start cracking down on the gun smuggling to mexico, but conveniently Trump didn't give a number for how many troops we're dedicating to that. Wonder why?
