To add to this, the US wouldn’t dare sanction Mexico. Especially if it allied together with China. They cumulatively make up for 30% of all trade with the US, and are both major suppliers for their industries.
I don’t see how that prevents the U.S. from sanctioning Mexico. The U.S. currently has or had sanctions on Mexican corporations that the State Department claimed were assisting Venezuela. I figure more targeted sanctions to bring Mexico to heel, if necessary, aren’t out of the question.
Because the US will self destruct if it does. Businesses won’t get raw materials for their products, or labour.
I remember one year they threatened to close the border because of migrants. But then backed off with just a verbal commitment given from Mexico. I can just imagine the perfect phone call trump got.
And that’s just Mexico alone. Trump had to back off on the Chinese trade war because businesses couldn’t handle the pain even with gov reimbursement.
Imagine what would happen if they sanctioned both Mexico and China?
A big part of US production is in Mexico. They put their factories here because labour is basically free compared to the US, our economy basically revolved around that and raw resource production.

You have very fair points, but don’t understimate Amerikkka’s stupidity.
