Does the average person know any of those though? Or will they just see it as "Mexico gave [fake] concessions"The average person will buy the propaganda. This is TikTok all over again.
Canada already proposed border stuff and we were ignored.
To be fair, so did Mexico, as evidenced by the fact that these 10,000 troops they promised had been negotiated under the Biden administration.Do we have a link for that? I remember it being discussed last year at some point, but don't remember numbers
This seems like this deal could have been struck just with a friendly text back and forth without the need of threatening the massive trade agreements we rely on as a political tool.It's all grandstanding to keep the "tough and firm" public image Trump loves to have. Biden shows you can do it "behind closed doors" so to speak, since he negotiated these changes with Mexico a while ago already.
But maybe that's why I'm not president.
i think trump just likes mexican food too much tbhThis is my favorite tweet from him. Dude's a nutcase lol

This is my favorite tweet from him. Dude's a nutcase lolThe good old days when Trump at least tried to appear friendly with that mirthless shit-eating grin of his.

This doesn't seem much like "bending the knee"i think it's cause it was used so much in Game of Thrones that it entered the lexicon of force
And what the fuck is up with chuds using that phrase?
The president of Mexico was actually able to talk to Trump? He pretends he isn't home whenever Trudeau calls.He thinks he can intimidate her because she's a woman.
Appeasement doesn't work.
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/d/dbde14f7.jpgKeep in mind Biden has already largely solved the fentanyl problem by getting China onboard with stopping the precursors from being sold.
Unfortunately, it's a win for Trump. Even if Mexico didn't bend the knee, it will be reported as a win by right-wing pundits. His supporters will not do the reaearch to see otherwise. Prepare to see a lot of people online saying tariffs work and Trump's a genius.They always lie. So it's not a win unless you were already stupid.

They spoke today.Thanks. I was making assumptions based on the fact that Trump had refused to talk to Trudeau since taking office up until today. My bad.

Let me get this straight.
Trump was going to impose tariffs against Mexico.
Mexico called Trump and told them they were going to do all these things.
Mexico was already doing all of that, so there's no actual change.
Trump agreed to do what he was already doing with regards to the boarder, so there's no actual change.
Trump pauses the tariffs, likely indefinitely.
And they're saying this is a win for Trump?
No, Trump got played.
Assigning 10k workers to the border seems like bending to me. Unless they were already there and its just a shifting of some paperwork.Which border though? It has southern border too
It was always a work, man.

Yeah, that doesn't look right
There gotta be way more gun shops than that in America
Did it account for the average Walmart?

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/1/1b713217.jpgHey that's not true, Mexico pledged to reduce the number of troops they have at the border from 15,000 to 10,000.
