I mentioned this a few weeks ago. The number one product Mexico exports are automobiles (most of which from American car makers that have IC plants in Mexico). And the U.S. is the number one customer for those exports. While tariffs would raise the cost of those cars, there are other options for American car buyers of vehicles not produced in Mexico....especially EV's which Tesla produces exclusively in U.S. factories. If Trump went through with the Mexico tariffs it would be a big boost to Musk.
Plus Dems would be happy more electric cars. Mexico grows lots of fruits and vegetables. We do need their farming especially since California is a such a big question mark.

They won't say it publicly, but given how the world stage has changed with Russia AND China, Denmark knows that if we owned Greenland , they would be better served from a security perspective.
I think Putin is looking for a way out of this mess he created. Personally we all should be pulling for an end to that war. Nothing good is going to come from all the fighting. I expect Trump to meet with Denmark in the first 30 days of office. Thank god we have leadership again. Joe was in way over his head, but was still better than Kamala even in his current state of mind. Pathetic how far we have fallen.

Have to negotiate differently with Mexico, we need their products and cooperation, but we do have some leverage there as well. Choices have to be made to keep peace. America has been so predictable that being unpredictable right now may cause people around the world to wake up and appreciate our country.

Used the wrong word, We are Canada’s largest customer. We buy autos and dairy products which help drive their economy. We run a trade deficit of over 200 billion. Their economy would suffer greatly without us. Same is true of Mexico, except we need what Mexico produces. Denmark owns Greenland and they count on us for protection. Denmark has been gracious and appreciative. Canada not so much hence the use of the phase taking advantage of us.

Trump needs leverage to negotiate a deal between Russia and Ukraine. We could hurt Canada and Denmark/Greenland and change the geography of our footprint but that would not be very neighborly, but then again Russia is not being very neighborly are they. Russia is depleting their military right now while USA could double in size without firing any weapons. Not to mention if we leverage Denmark/Greenland we would could keep an eye on Russia. The smart Folks in Denmark might buy into the Greenland partnership to put Russia in check. If Trump delivers this message maybe he gets the fighting to stop. It’s better than doing nothing while financing death and destruction.
Long shot but bet it works.

try this.

1) US is clearly taking advantage of greenland denmark, making the original comment completley wrong, and its the exact opposite

2) comparing canada with mexico is flat out moronic and you even know it. you know how BS that is.

are greenland and canada really taking advantage of us?
