He announced at noon (March 6, 2025) that he would
not raise a 25% Tariff on all of Mexico's exports
received into the USA; his threat to do so would have
violated the terms of the United States-Mexico-Canada
trade "deal" / treaty he made in his initial term of office.
This exemption according to his social media "tweet"
will last until April 2, 2025. He admitted that he had
spoken directly with Mexico's president, Claudia
Sheinbaum.
UPDATE (March 8, 2025):
Tariffs proposed and in place for April 2, 2025
could cause a
1 percent rise in inflation; cut
growth by half a percentage point;
and cost the average household
$1,600 in disposable income
