At a campaign rally in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump vowed to impose strict tariffs on Mexico and China if they fail to curb the flow of fentanyl into the United States. Trump proposed a 25% tariff on goods from both countries as part of his strategy to combat drug trafficking, particularly focusing on the southern border with Mexico.
Trump emphasized his determination to stop the influx of drugs, stating that such high tariffs would compel both nations to take swift action. He expressed confidence that the measures would have an immediate effect on reducing the flow of fentanyl into the U.S.

In addition to his stance on drug trafficking, Trump reiterated his commitment to a mass deportation plan for migrants in the U.S., should he win the presidential election. This marks a continuation of his hardline immigration policies, which have been a central part of his platform. The rally signals his intent to focus heavily on border security and drug control as key components of his campaign.
