The message is loud and clear: Donald Trump is taking decisive action to protect America from the chaos being allowed by our neighbors. He announced that right from the start of his presidency, he will impose a 25% tariff on all products coming from Mexico and Canada. These countries have failed to stop the flood of crime and drugs into our nation, and it’s time they face consequences.
“As everyone is aware, thousands of people are pouring through Mexico and Canada, bringing Crime and Drugs at levels never seen before,” Trump declared on TRUTH.
Day 1 is going to be AMAZING!

He pointed out the alarming situation with a caravan from Mexico, “Right now a Caravan coming from Mexico, composed of thousands of people, seems to be unstoppable in its quest to come through our currently Open Border.”

On January 20th, Trump plans to take immediate action, “As one of my many first Executive Orders, I will sign all necessary documents to charge Mexico and Canada a 25% Tariff on ALL products coming into the United States, and its ridiculous Open Borders.”
This bold move will remain until these nations take responsibility for their actions: “This Tariff will remain in effect until such time as Drugs, in particular Fentanyl, and all Illegal Aliens stop this Invasion of our Country! Both Mexico and Canada have the absolute right and power to easily solve this long simmering problem.”

Trump’s stance is firm: “We hereby demand that they use this power, and until such time that they do, it is time for them to pay a very big price!”
In a recent interview, Trump’s commerce secretary pick Howard Lutnick illustrated how tariffs can be wielded as a powerful bargaining tool. Trump isn’t just talking; he’s ready to act.
In other words, we are in the “find out” phase of “FAFO.”
