For mexico its just words that dont cost them anything.
They will do very little if nothing, while claiming they are doing a lot.
I hope the tariffs stay in place until we see some hard quantifiable evidence presented on a very regular basis.

Determining their level of follow-through will be a fairly easy task. The tariffs got Mexicos attention.
Tariffs have not been removed because they were never implemented. The application of these tariffs has been suspended and this is an important word in the declaration.
Trump's prize is in what it allows America to do to "asylum" invaders:
"...those crossing the U.S. Southern Border to seek asylum will be rapidly returned to Mexico where they may await the adjudication of their asylum claims."
This gives us the power to enforce it ourselves. When phony asylum claims no longer gives these invaders years in America (living a US taxpayer subsidized life) before a hearing, how few will even bother.
