Mexico’s Claudia Sheinbaum: Takes Trump to School

Picking up on Latin America and we will take it from the top, Mexico first. Much is happening in the complete region, and the full spectrum dominance attempts are in full swing. 

Trump has recently threatened to apply 25% sanctions on products from Mexico (actually tariffs on the whole world but we’re looking at Mexico). His reasoning was US drug problems and migration.

I listened to most of the talk on this, and oh boy, that man lies terribly.

The new president of Mexico is a little stronger that the previous beloved AMLO. It is time for this.

This is what Sheinbaum said plus my comments:

Dear President-elect Donald Trump,

I am writing to you regarding your statement on Monday, November 25, concerning migration, fentanyl trafficking, and tariffs.

You may not be aware that Mexico has developed a comprehensive policy to assist migrants from different parts of the world who cross our territory en route to the southern border of the United States. As a result, and according to data from your country’s Customs and Border Protection (CBP), encounters at the Mexico–United States border have decreased by 75% between December 2023 and November 2024. Moreover, half of those who arrive do so through a legally scheduled appointment under the United States’ CBP One program. For these reasons, migrant caravans no longer arrive at the border.

Note:  She is telling him he is not up to date with the current situation and therefore he is whining in the wind.

Even so, it is clear that we must work together to create a new labor mobility model that is necessary for your country, as well as address the root causes that compel families to leave their homes out of necessity. If even a small percentage of what the United States allocates to war were instead dedicated to building peace and fostering development, it would address the underlying causes of human mobility.

Note:  If one knows the Latins, she is telling him that he is a vicious warmaker and does not understand what his country needs and has no clue how to address the migrant problem.  She is also telling him that the US needs migrants and we know that they do for seasonal work at least.

On another note, and for humanitarian reasons, Mexico has consistently expressed its willingness to help prevent the fentanyl epidemic in the United States from continuing. This is, after all, a public health and consumption problem within your society. So far this year, Mexican armed forces and prosecutors have seized tons of various types of drugs, 10,340 firearms, and have detained 15,640 individuals for violence related to drug trafficking.

Note:  The Fentanyl and drug problem is a US problem, and not a Mexican problem. Mexicans don’t consume Fentanyl. (Subtext, they have good weed!)

Furthermore, the Mexican Congress is in the process of approving a constitutional reform to classify the production, distribution, and commercialization of fentanyl and other synthetic drugs as a serious crime without bail. However, it is publicly known that the chemical precursors used to produce this and other synthetic drugs are illegally entering Canada, the United States, and Mexico from Asian countries. This underscores the urgent need for international collaboration.

Note:  She is telling him that he has to work together and not against Mexico.  She is saying that he has to stop blaming Mexico, and take the fair portion of the blame for his own country and for Canada.  And now the worm turns delightfully!

You must also be aware of the illegal trafficking of firearms into my country from the United States.

Seventy percent of the illegal weapons seized from criminals in Mexico come from your country. We do not produce these weapons, nor do we consume synthetic drugs. Tragically, it is in our country that lives are lost to the violence resulting from meeting the drug demand in yours.

President Trump, migration and drug consumption in the United States cannot be addressed through threats or tariffs. What is needed is cooperation and mutual understanding to tackle these significant challenges.

Note:  Very seldom has a Mexican president so clearly spelt it out.  And the worm turns again.

For every tariff, there will be a response in kind, until we put at risk our shared enterprises.

Note:  Nicely done!  You impose tariffs, we impose tariffs – and she spells out the reason – joint enterprises you boob!

Yes, shared. For instance, among Mexico’s main exporters to the United States are General Motors, Stellantis, and Ford Motor Company, which arrived in Mexico 80 years ago. Why impose a tariff that would jeopardize them? Such a measure would be unacceptable and would lead to inflation and job losses in both the United States and Mexico.

I am convinced that North America’s economic strength lies in maintaining our trade partnership. This allows us to remain competitive against other economic blocs. For this reason, I believe that dialogue is the best path to understanding, peace, and prosperity for our nations. I hope our teams can meet soon to continue building joint solutions.

Here it comes.  This is what Trump wrote on his Truth Social, oh so casually telling a fat fib.

Mexico will stop people from going to our Southern Border, effective immediately. THIS WILL GO A LONG WAY TOWARD STOPPING THE ILLEGAL INVASION OF THE USA. Thank you!!!

Just had a wonderful conversation with the new President of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo. She has agreed to stop Migration through Mexico, and into the United States, effectively closing our Southern Border. We also talked about what can be done to stop the massive drug inflow into the United States, and also, U.S. consumption of these drugs. It was a very productive conversation!

I have to say it. Claudia Sheinbaum exposed Trump’s rear end.   Mexico for BRICS!  What would happen if Mexico says they will abandon the dollar, because it is the use of the dollar that causes the problem with drugs and weapons in Mexico.  Can you conceive of such a joy!
