A second round of NAFTA negotiations gets underway Friday in a country that has long served as Donald Trump's political whipping boy. The Senate leader of the old left-wing party, the PRD, would respond to Trump's threats to pull out of NAFTA by pulling out first. In the news this week are Trump's NAFTA warnings, ramped-up deportations, pardoning of Sheriff Joe Arpaio and threatened government shutdown to fund his border wall. "The Mexican president and Mexican government have been very effective," said Wood, director of the Mexico Institute at Washington, D.C.'s Wilson Center. He believes constructive dialogue can prevail, NAFTA can survive, and politicians can get elected here without bashing Trump.
