President Trump slammed The New York Times on Monday over an article on the administration’s immigration deal with Mexico that he called a “FRAUD” and a “hit job” -- while also warning that if Mexico's legislature does not approve the pact, he will move anew to impose tariffs. Through the agreement, the U.S. is slated to extend its policy of returning asylum applicants to Mexico while their claims are processed. But even as the president called the agreement “successful,” he suggested he may again seek to impose tariffs on Mexico if the plan falls through. It will be revealed in the not too distant future and will need a vote by Mexico’s Legislative body!” Trump tweeted. Trump has repeatedly expressed frustration at the crisis and repeatedly blamed both congressional Democrats and Mexico for not doing more to protect against the surges of migrants at the southern border.
