It was exactly the same. And the first tariffs that President Trump announced, he would place 25% tariffs on everything coming out of Mexico. That's a huge deal because Mexico has become the number one trading partner for the United States. So it's billions of dollars on all sorts of things, right? From limes and avocados to computer screens to the cars you drive. Mexico took the exact same tack.

On the day that President Trump announced those tariffs, Claudia Sheinbaum said, we have retaliatory measures ready, but I'm going to wait to talk to President Trump. That next morning, she talked to President Trump. She came out to the nation and said, these tariffs have been postponed. And this is the playbook, actually, that Mexico used during its first term. And basically, what

they've learned, and they've told Mexicans this, right, is that we're not going to take on Trump in the sort of same aggressive manner that he takes with us. And so far, that seems to be working.

I don't know. I think it's a bit of a sleight of hand. Right now, Mexico is not doing anything that it wasn't doing when Biden was in office. I mean, Mexico, when Biden was in office, had sent troops to the border. It allowed the US to deport non-Mexican migrants to Mexico. You know, we've been hearing a lot about raids and all these military planes shipping migrants back to their country.

But the Mexican government says that they haven't seen a significant uptick in deportations since Trump took office. So, I mean, in a lot of ways, Mexico's relationship with the United States is the same. They're doing sort of the same things. But what we're getting is a much more aggressive language coming from U.S. leadership.

And I could be terribly wrong here, Sue, because I hear you on Trump being dead set on tariffs, right? But I think if things do change, between these countries and in this market, it's probably just not going to happen with the swiftness that we've been seeing in these first few weeks of the administration.
