Well, that didn’t take long! Less than a day after President-elect Trump threatened to slap a 25% tariff on Mexican goods, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum is suddenly all-in on stopping those infamous migrant caravans from reaching the U.S.-Mexico border. Coincidence? Hardly. This is the kind of quick action you get when someone like Trump is about to take the reins.
Sheinbaum made the announcement on Tuesday, stating bluntly that “caravans of migrants no longer reach the border.” Her comments came as she unveiled a letter she plans to send to Trump, defending Mexico’s efforts to stem the tide of migration and combat fentanyl trafficking. The timing of her remarks couldn’t be clearer—Trump’s tough talk on tariffs and border security is already producing results before he’s even sworn in.
Let’s face it: Trump knows how to play hardball. His promise to hit Mexico with steep tariffs until illegal immigration and drug trafficking are under control has obviously rattled Mexico’s leadership. Sheinbaum’s sudden announcement is practically a confession that the pressure worked. For years, the Mexican government turned a blind eye to caravans streaming through their country, claiming there was little they could do. Now, with the threat of economic consequences looming, they’ve magically found a way to stop those caravans in their tracks. Funny how that works.
Sheinbaum also tried to shift some blame back to the U.S., calling fentanyl “a public health and consumption problem within your country’s society.” While she’s not wrong that demand drives supply, her comments feel like a weak deflection compared to the decisive action Trump is demanding.

Did Mexico Just CAVE to Trump ?

The bigger story here is Trump’s effectiveness. He hasn’t even set foot back in the Oval Office, and already his no-nonsense approach is reshaping U.S.-Mexico relations. For four years, we watched as Biden and Harris failed to secure the border, allowing chaos to spiral out of control. Now, with a single tariff threat, Trump has Mexico scrambling to clean up its act.
This is exactly what Americans voted for—real leadership that puts America’s interests first. Sheinbaum’s announcement is just the beginning. If Trump can get this kind of action while still in transition, imagine what he’ll accomplish once he’s officially back in charge. Buckle up, Mexico—there’s a new sheriff in town, and his name is Donald Trump.
