Or to continue paraphrasing Shakespeare, hell knows no fury like a woman who grew up on corn. La Presidenta spoke and Trump had to stand up and listen. OMG, imagine that! The Man pedalled back tariffs by a month. And anything can happen later including a reduction in the tariffs or no tariffs at all. The Donald is not omnipotent as he seemed a week ago. Claudia Sheinbaum said tariffs on Mexico have been delayed for a month – one day before they were meant to come into effect. Mexico and the US agreed to add further controls on each side of the border – Sheinbaum apparently raised the problem of weapons entering Mexico from the US just as Trump bemoaned thousands of pounds of fentanyl entering the US. The Mexican standoff didn’t last too long. Lesson learned, fight hard and look for alternatives.
