Mike, you should have read the 2d article I gave you to read about Mexico. Obrador is a leftie along the lines of Hugo Chavez. Biden held a Summit for the Americas and didn't invite Cuba, Venezuela, and another country whose name escapes me at the moment. Obrador got upset about that and didn't go to the summit loudly. He and Biden had talks afterwords. Obrador tried to eliminate the term limits for the Presidency in Mexico - following Hugo Chavez plan to remain in power. He has a hand picked successor and she should do well, but he's been louder this year because he's stepping down - his bid for continued power has been rebuffed.

He's sliding out the door Mike, the election is June 2.

We probably already do 20 billion in aid, so he's just asking for what we are already doing. I personally think we should reconsider some of the sanctions on Venezuela and Cuba. Obrador is along the lines of Bolivarian leftie socialists IIRC. So Cuba and Venezuela are in his camp. No fan of capitalism he

So Obrador wants 10 million visas for Latin American Hispanics who've worked in the US for 7 years? Well, Reagan did something like that as I recall. More of an amnesty.

When Biden shut the border crossings Obrador immediately stepped up pulling migrants off trains, and stopping people coming across the Guatemalan border. Remember the Trump Admin negotiating the new NAFTA treaty? After all the noise Trump made almost nothing happened. In fact Obrador probably thought Mexican courts having jurisdiction over the employees was a win.

Obrador is making loud noises for Latin America and stumping a bit for his chosen successor.
