I'm glad the Mexican government has the nuance to recognize that many of us didn't want these kinds of horrendous policies to be implemented. Hit 'em where it hurts. They wanted it, now they pay for the consequences, free market and all that.

They are hurting Mexican consumers, just as America's tariffs are hurting American consumers.

One would think someone with any ideological consistency (rather than reflexive opposition to anything Trump does) would view retalitory tariffs as just as idiotic as the initial tariffs.


Which is precisely why unilaterally imposing random tariffs is an incredibly bad decision. Everybody is forced into losing positions and has to respond from there.
