Just a reminder that theatre is exactly what this is, starring Mexico, Canada, and Donald Trump

 Sound familiar?

More tariff theatre: Trump announces 25% tariffs on Canada on Saturday, reverses himself before dinner on Monday lol

 

Trump pauses tariffs on Canada imports for 30 days after doing the same for Mexico

... Trudeau said Canada had made new commitments “to appoint a Fentanyl Czar.” 😉😉

“Canada is implementing our $1.3 billion border plan — reinforcing the border with new choppers, technology and personnel, enhanced coordination with our American partners, and increased resources to stop the flow of fentanyl,” the prime minister wrote. “Nearly 10,000 frontline personnel are and will be working on protecting the border.” ...

In 2024, more than 21,100 pounds of fentanyl was seized by U.S. authorities on the border with Mexico, compared to only about 43 pounds seized at the Canadian border. ...

Trump announces 25% tariffs on Mexico on Saturday, reverses himself before lunch on Monday lol

 

 Stocks that got hit the most from Trump’s tariffs before the Mexico reprieve

... Shares of companies spanning the auto, industrial, retail and beverage industries with international supply chains were hit particularly hard. ... The president said Monday that he’s pausing the Mexico tariffs for one month after Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum agreed to immediately send 10,000 soldiers to her country’s border to prevent drug trafficking.

The country which can't stop the drug cartels from operating unchecked within its own borders is going to stop drug traffic to the USA because it puts its troops closer to our border?

Phony baloney plastic banana good time rock 'n rolla.

Puto in the news, but Associated Press won't spell it out lol

 Mexico is struggling to stamp out a homophobic soccer chant ahead of the World Cup

 GUADALAJARA, México (AP) — Guadalajara is the capital of a Mexican state that is home to tequila and Mariachi music. It is also considered the birthplace of a less flattering tradition – a homophobic soccer chant that has cost Mexico hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines over the past two decades.

It’s no wild guess that the chant, a one-word slur which literally means male prostitute in Spanish, will be heard from the crowd in Guadalajara’s Akron stadium when Mexico hosts the United States in a friendly on Tuesday. Multiple sanctions from FIFA and campaigns by Mexican soccer officials to educate fans have not been able to stamp it out. ...

LOL Mexico soccer fans strike again, Las Vegas match called early because of Puto! chants

Things are really getting bad if you have to go to Mexico to escape the Nazis to practice the First Amendment.

 

Homophobic chants force US-Mexico soccer match to end early in Las Vegas

The United States men’s match against Mexico was cut short Thursday night by the referee after the stadium devolved into echoes of homophobic chants from Mexican soccer fans. ... Four players were ejected in a testy second half of the game, which the U.S. won 3-0 for a spot Sunday in the CONCACAF Nations League final against Canada.

Wait for it.

LOL, on Tuesday July 12th Joe Biden told the president of Mexico in a meeting that America has the fastest growing economy in the world

 

Biden, once López Obrador finished, reminded him that America's economy is the fastest growing in the world, while showing no umbrage and restating his respect for Mexico and its leader.

More. 

 

Joe Biden's own US Bureau of Economic Analysis, June 29th, said GDP fell at an annual rate of 1.6% in 1Q2022:

LOL Trump is still president: Biden to reimplement Remain in Mexico policy for migrants after a federal court ruling in August

Sum Ting Wong: Nearly 60 million in US got Mexican swine flu in 2009-2010 and 12,000 died, but we never quarantined millions as China feels it must now

If Ann Coulter really means it, we should invade Mexico, kill their leaders and convert them to libertarianism

Declare war on Mexico and burn everything down to the oceans

When the drug cartel defeats the Mexican army, you know it's well past the time for another American war with Mexico

Take the whole central plateau down to San Luis Potosi and push the enemy into the sea.

We occupied Mexico City in 1847 and we could do it again if Mexico won't withdraw its forces from El Paso

LOL, Mexico soccer fans ruin Gay Pride Month at Rose Bowl, shout "Puto!" with abandon

Rose Bowl and Concacaf allow anti-gay chants throughout Mexico’s Gold Cup match

Mexico fans chanted the homophobic ‘puto’ chant repeatedly at the Rose Bowl with no consequence.

No, Ann, stop this baby stuff, bomb the hell out of Mexico and then go in and take all the tacos

Dear New York Times: Beyond the 500 million or so living in Canada, US and Mexico, where are these "billions of people"?

Probably the same people Obama said got Obamacare.

On the other hand, in the Mexico City shit-hole you can't get an abortion past 12 weeks

Shit-hole traffic update: 18 crashes in Mexico City at this hour, zero in New York City

H. Ross Perot's $13/hr factory jobs going to Mexico in 1992 should pay $27/hr today adjusted for inflation but pay only $18

The giant sucking sound clip from 1992 is here.

Perot characterized factory wages in 1992 as typically paying between $12 and $14 per hour.

Adjusted for inflation the $13 job in 2017 would pay nearly $27 per hour. The reality is it pays a lot less than that. Factory work in Michigan today basically starts at $15, up only 25% not 107%. The average manufacturing job paying $21+ is composed of a lot of such lower paying positions.

The reality is in Michigan that the top eventual $18/hr advertised wage is the equivalent of less than $9/hr in 1992.

The jobs have gone out of the country, expanding middle classes abroad while impoverishing our own at home.

The great divide on the right is between those of us who want to invade Mexico and those who want to invade Canada

One term president now wants a wall which pleases Democrats' artistic sensibilities and which Mexicans admire as they're climbing through it
