Yes, that’s exactly right.
He was making a deal, and the cheap seat Adonises were carping since he presented to motivating plan to raise Tariffs.
I think the thing that really shook Mexico up, was the part where if nothing is done, the tariffs would go up another 5% each month. (I believe it was 5%, perhaps a different figure) Still it was a great motivator.
Honestly, this is something that never occurred to me.
Excellent tactic.
Yep, Trump has a good lever with these tariffs.
