THE OVAL OFFICE – President Donald Trump told the Daily Caller that Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo is “scared” to bring in U.S. troops.
The Daily Caller sat down with Trump for an hour long interview in the Oval Office. The president talked about his administration’s work on the border crisis, his work with Mexico and upcoming policy on illegal farmers and restaurant workers.
TRUMP: They don’t even talk about it. [Inaudible]. Think of it. For the last 90 days, we’ve had nobody, three months. Three months, nobody, zero. And, you know, Democrats do those stats. It’s like zero. It’d be very hard to get it, but for three months, we’ve had nobody. Could be four months now. I mean, I’ve totally solved the border problem.
REESE: Are you happy with the rate of deportations right now?
TRUMP: Yeah, we’re doing a lot. You know, we’re doing a lot of self deportations. Millions are going out. That’s not much of a story, but a big story is self deportation. You know, we give them an incentive to go out, meaning you can come back someday. If you don’t go out, you can never come back.
[TRUMP and REESE move off the record.] [TRUMP and REESE move on the record.]REESE: Do you trust Mexico to secure their side of the border with – since the government is believed to be, you know, run by the cartels, or the cartels are involved?
TRUMP: So I like the president very much. I think she’s a terrific woman. She’s actually an amazing woman in some, in certain ways, very elegant, beautiful. But Mexico is run by the cartels. It’s run by the cartels.
[TRUMP and REESE move off the record.]TRUMP: Now you can go back [on the record.] I’ve offered to send in the military, and she doesn’t want us to do that.
REESE: Why?
TRUMP: Because she’s scared.
REESE: Wow.
TRUMP: She’s very scared.
REESE: On illegal immigration, sticking on immigration, are there still plans to provide deportation exemptions for illegal farmers and restaurant workers? What’s the policy right now?
TRUMP: We want to, we want to. Look I, I have two groups, that in particular like me, people that don’t want to allow people to come into the country illegally, and the farmers. Okay, they really, with the farmers, they’re great and, and it’s a little at odds, because some of the people coming in for many years have worked on farms, and they’ve been good, and in many cases, they pay taxes, you know, everything else. And you have some of my best people, don’t want anybody in for any reason, no matter what. No matter what. Very hard line stand. So we’re working on legislation now that’s gonna, it’s gonna — I think, I think, I’m gonna make everybody happy.
Mexico has continuously had problems with drug cartels and their influence over the country. Corrupt dealings between the cartels and the Mexican government stretches to Sheinbaum’s office, as two former officials have previously been charged with involvement in a drug trafficking operation, The New York Times reported.
While securing the southern border and stopping the flow of illegal immigrants into the United States, the Trump administration has also cracked down on cartels in Mexico. In early August, the president authorized the U.S. military to target Latin American cartels as foreign terrorist organizations, sources told The New York Times. The U.S. military also deployed assets to the southern Caribbean sea to curtail cartel activity.

they would kill her in a heart beat
In the picture at the top, they are doing the masonic hand gesture for sublime knights elected which is obviously to do with their recent appointment when the picture was taken. Zion don and them are friends in the back ground, all cut from the same cloth. Here is how things are going to go down. The nwo idea was planned because they know they have limited time before the father comes back and they want to rule earth forever. The plan is to unite all nations under a central government to utilise their military strength. Yes that is you and your cjildren. An example of this would be nato and the upcoming european army which will increase to a global army. The reason why they are doing this is because they are going to use that army against out father whos return is imminent with the final judgement. They ant us whities out of the way because when the masses actually wake up and realize the truth of satans deception since his release, the majority would side with jesus christ. They cannot have that in the gog magog war, it would be a disaster for them. Whities are part of the original kingdom of jesus christ. This is where the illegals come in because when satan appears which will be soon, he will convince a large proportion if not most of the people that he is the promised messiah because of all the fake religions. Indians will see lord sonanda, muslims will see their messiah… etc. Of course us who are in line with christ will deny it and you know what will happen then. When christ comes down with the new jeruselum, they will wage war against him. This will all happen in the next few years which is why the parasites built their bunkers. They will not escape the father. They have 2030 down for a reason. Anyone who is currently serving in the military right now, you are serving satan and not your country, as are the police in every nation. All leaders and their opposition are working for satan to use the people of the world to fight the father. All you see today are theatrics. You are not serving your country serving in the military or police, you serve satan. All the secret meetings, the builderbergs etc are all preperation for the return of our father who will be back soon. Any one who served in military for the last 250 years served satan. Nationalism was used to manipulate the people into serving him without their own knowledge. Satans lies are now unravelling and its now time to choose.
Sheinbaum, or whoever replaces her that hasn’t run from fear of cartel torture, rape, disembowelment, limbs and head chopped off to hang on lamp posts, won’t have a choice when businesses start leaving Mexico for the US. Tariffs will slowly bleed them out.
As of July 31, 2025, President Donald Trump announced he would extend the existing 25% tariffs on Mexican goods for a 90-day period, effectively pausing any planned increase to 30%.
The current tariffs include a 25% duty on non-USMCA goods, a 25% tariff on auto imports, and a 50% tariff on metals like steel, aluminum, and copper.
The narco state is on notice. Canada will have to also clean up its act.
