How will Trump deal with Mexico's new leftist president?

[oreo]

Trump could put an agonizing hurt on mexico.

Trump is definitely going to put a hurt on your wallet. We get most of our oil from Canada and Mexico. And Canada has already stated what they're going to do with Trump.

Mexico elected leftist candidate Andrés Manuel López Obrador in a landslide victory on Sunday, according to exit polls showing the former mayor with double-digit leads over his competitors.

López Obrador, 64, mounted his third bid for the presidency with promises to rein in widespread corruption and fight poverty within the country. A former mayor of Mexico City, he will replace current President Enrique Peña Nieto and has promised to upend traditional party politics.

He would be the first leftist president in more than 30 years.

Mexico Elects Leftist Andrés Manuel López Obrador

Far left. Landslide victory. First leftist president in over 30 years. How will Trump deal with him? Comments?

Probably he'll be disgusted that a guy will come along thinking about the people, not just the rich.

Since he is a communist, there should be a mass migration to Mexico....including the illegals and the commie leftists in this country.

Let's see how many Progressives head south to Illegally Immigrate to Mexico. Probably as many as hop on the Inner Tube to Fidel

Well, Mexico hasn't exactly been socialist for the last I don't know how many years, and it's hasn't been that great for them, has it?

It's been great for the drug cartels.

Yes, the US has been great for the drug cartels too.

 

[oreo]

He'll kick the crap out of him.

Please tell how is Trump going to kick the crap out of him? Canada is our second largest purchaser of American products, Mexico is our 3rd largest purchaser of American products. We get most of our oil from Mexico and Canada. So tell me again who is going to get the crap beat out of them---

We have much, much more leverage than Mexico. Trump knows this, and will use it to the advantage of the U.S.

In other words - you expect Trump will try to bully the new president?

Huh?

 

[protectionist]

Mexico is about to get the surprise of their lives. But I won't be a bit surprised. ANd they shouldn't be either.

 

[protectionist]

You probably don't know that we get most of our oil from Mexico & Canada, so I have a feeling it's going to be kind of a mutual ass kicking Canada is the 2nd largest buyer of American products, Mexico is the 3rd largest buyer of American products.

You probably don't know that I've been posting things about Canada and Mexico oil imports for years.

If you think either one of these train wrecks has an ounce of leverage over Trump, you are mistaken.

In fact, being that we import oil from them gives US the leverage over them. No country in the world has the MARKET that we in the US have. This is what makes us the great economic power that we are, that no country can match.

They need us ; we don't need them. They're placing tariffs against us ? HA HA. Keep watching and see how it plays out.​

Just another dumbass Trump supporter, not a real Mexican.

 

[BULLDOG]

He will do what he is doing with other countries, Using the leverage of our huge market, technology, and worldwide power to make deals that are good for the U.S. A good deal for the U.S. doesn't have to be a bad deal for other countries. A good transaction leaves both parties feeling like they got something out of the deal. It is called negotiating.

Trump doesn't know how to negotiate. The only thing I know of that he has even tried to negotiate is a nuclear deal with N Korea, and we gave up military maneuvers, and they expanded their nuclear facilities. The man is a fool.

It's well noted you have not posted a single trusted credibile link to your claim, but the last time I looked 2/3's of our oil comes from Mexico & Canada, which keeps us away from mid eastern oil. Now if you don't think that they could murder our economy, you've got your head shoved up your dark spot. You'll also note from the chart below that Mexico also buys oil from us, and the entire middle part of this country gets their oil from Canada which is refined here through their pipeline. Oil is Mexico's number one industry, tourism is 2nd to that. Canada & Mexico are also our 2nd and 3rd largest buyers of American products, cars, appliances, food, electronics, etc. etc. and you think that Trump can fuck around with them without any blow back to your wallet.

So we should let Canada and Mexico levy tariffs on us but we shouldn't levy any on them? Just bend over for them? How American of you.

We can strangle either country in a matter of days thanks to fracking, which is why Barry tried to shut it down.

In the fourth quarter of 2017, the U.S. imported roughly 10 million barrels of petroleum per day,3 with the largest amounts coming from Canada (42%), Mexico (7.7%), and Saudi Arabia (7%).4

In the fourth quarter of 2017, the U.S. exported roughly 7 million barrels of petroleum per day.3 The largest markets for U.S. petroleum exports are Mexico and Canada, but the U.S. exports petroleum to 180 countries.5

The recent increase in domestic oil production, especially since 2010, has had a significant impact on U.S. petroleum imports and exports. From 2005 to 2015, the United States’ reliance on petroleum imports fell from 60% to 25% of total consumption,6 while exports increased by over 300%.

You should look again....we produce over 75% of our own oil and Mexico's number one "industry" is remittances from illegal aliens in the US.

You're not on a FOX NEWS facebook page. Now unless you can produce a trusted credbile verifiable link on this board, your comments go into the file.

Nope--Oil is Mexico's number one industry, tourism is 2nd. In fact the government owns all of the Pemex (gas stations) in the country which is how they fund the government. The Mexican government is funded by oil. They export a ton of it to the United States as does Canada.

If they cut us off, or drive up the prices on the oil they export to us, we're fucked.
