This is only going to continue. A strong and prosperous Mexico is a strategic win for the United States in a lot of different ways
Over the years I’ve never really been disappointed with a made in Mexico part.
Only glass bottled sodas with real sugar I can find on the market, too. And their produce quality? My goodness.
Good, much better than buying shit directly from China either way - shorter supply loop, hybrid Mexican/Chinese expertise & quality control, this is why we want international relations really.
How?
If some Americans I disagree with want fewer immigrants coming here, then a more stable Mexico would encourage Mexicans and other Spanish speaking immigrants to stay in Mexico. Mexicans wouldn’t immigrate to the USA, and Guatemalans and so on would stop at stable and prosperous Mexico rather than making the further journey to the culturally estranged USA. Instead of building the wall, we’d make Mexico a net.
Logistics my man. It’s easier and cheaper to walk down the street to get some milk than it is to get in your car, burn gas, drive for several miles, pick up the milk, then drive back. Mexico doing well is as good as Canada doing well. Strong neighbors are our biggest advantage.
While this is true, over seas shipment is actually incredibly cheap and efficient. I’m sure Mexico also has great shipping lanes to but cheap overseas shipping is why fruit is packed in countries 1000s of miles apart from where it is grown.
Sir we’re turning cargo ships back into ones that use sails instead of engines due to the extremely high cost of using diesel as well as the apocalyptic climate cost. We can ship shit from Mexico to us using semitrucks. Land. That’s so much more cost efficient I struggle to put it into words.
Trains. Just use trains. Easy to ship large shipments, easy to electrify.
The more robust legitimate economy Mexico builds for itself the less power the cartels have.

Jokes on them, Mexico is just selling shit they bought from China.
Joke’s* on them
Mexico supplies us with a ton of produce. They have a great climate for growing year-round
No way. They import electronics from the place that sells cheap electronics?!
No but honestly Mexico being our produce supplier and then using that money to get better electronics to make more food sounds like such a big win for us even if it mildly benefits China.
Had.
E: Y’all haven’t heard about soil degradation and desertification? Mexico already experiences drought conditions lately that affect like >80% of the country. It has lost ~20% if it’s airable land in recent years as the soil is dying.
This is wonderful news for everyone involved except China
This is wonderful news for everyone that matters.
Wow so according to the right, the rapists and terrorists are really good at manufacturing.
