On Tuesday's broadcast of Newsmax TV's “The Record,” Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick (R) said that tariffs on Canada or Mexico would not only cause some pain to Canadian and Mexican businesses, but also It will cause some pain for businesses, but the cost will be high, he said. The fentanyl coming into the United States and the dangerous criminals coming across our porous border are even worse.
“Whether it's Canada or Mexico, Greta, they're not going to win a war with us. They're not going to win a war with us, and tariffs are going to hurt some businesses on both sides of the border,” Patrick said. But what hurts more? [is] The family of Jocelyn Nangaray, who was tortured, strangled, and raped by illegal immigrants under a bridge in Houston, or Laken Riley in Georgia, or, as you pointed out, countless others who died from fentanyl. . These are lives that are being lost. And President Donald Trump has sent a clear message: You're either with us or you're against us. And if you go against us, he will rightly bring down the hammer. ”
He added that Mexico is a big trading partner and wants to work together, but the United States also has to protect its own people.
