PITTSBURGH (Reuters) – Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump warned on Monday that if elected, he would punish Mexico with tariffs unless the Mexican government takes steps to stem the flow of fentanyl into the United States.
At a rally in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Trump said he would move quickly to crack down on drug trafficking along the U.S. southern border with Mexico and that he would impose tariffs. “We will immediately stop drugs from entering our border,” he announced.
