They are the most powerful force on the ground. And they are plowing into the United States. They're facilitating illegal migration, but they are also bringing in fentanyl and deadly drugs to our country. That's a national security threat and that needs to stop. So we expect their cooperation on that because they should. If it was the other way around, they would expect that as well.
And that needs to be addressed. Secondarily to that is the president feels that we have a trade imbalance and unfairness with Mexico on a number of products, including agricultural products that are dumped on our markets, but also the Chinese. What the Chinese are now doing is they're creating these front companies.

They're investing in Mexican manufacturing and then backdooring using the USMCA, the Free Trade Agreement, to get Chinese goods into America. And so it creates this trade imbalance and that needs to be confronted. So when the president talks about tariffs, he talks about it on two fronts. as obviously a leverage and pressure point when it comes to cooperation on migration.

But separate from that, it's also related to unfairness in our trade relationship. With the Canadians, obviously the border is one of the biggest, if not the biggest border, land border in the world. We share common interests there. I think they don't want to see their country filled with fentanyl either.

I think if I were them, I'd be concerned that with the crackdown on illegal immigration in the United States, people would flee north into Canada. So you would think we'd be able to work with them very cooperatively on border security. And then there's a broader trade imbalance with them that the president wants to address as well. And so that's why those conversations are important.

These are not hostile moves.

Well, we'll see. I mean, that's the president's decision to make. And, you know, we'll be prepared to address it from a foreign policy perspective. Whatever decision he makes on those things, that's his decision to make. Whether he makes it this weekend or a week from now or a month from now, he clearly wants to address both illegal migration, but ultimately also our economic interests.

Who is more likely to be the 51st state, Canada or Greenland? Well, again, look, I think that, you know, we're a long ways from that point. I think the president's made his his view on this very clear. And that is our interests in Greenland are endangered and that needs to be addressed. And he's willing to buy it.
