President Trump says he believes the US holds all the cards in the trade war. But former US Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez disagrees. 'Both sides lose. Both sides lose jobs. Both sides lose companies.'

Washington President Donald Trump said Thursday talks are going well with Mexico but that he's prepared to enact new tariffs -- a move that faces opposition from his own party and risks the strong economy he's counting on heading into the 2020 presidential campaign.

He also said he's prepared to slap new tariffs on China if continued trade talks are unsuccessful.A day after Mexican officials came to the White House for talks, Trump says"a lot of progress" was made but that he's prepared to take"dramatic" steps against the country."I think a lot of progress was made yesterday," Trump said in Ireland before departing for Normandy."Something pretty dramatic could happen," Trump said.

Trump voter reacts to Mexico tariffs: Absolutely horrible 02:21The talks between the White House and Mexico officials will continue later Thursday after no deal was reached on immigration and tariffs. Trump tweeted Wednesday evening that he intends to move ahead with his threat to impose a 5% levy on all Mexican imported goods if no agreement is reached on immigration enforcement.

Trump is a DICTATOR he knows it all , thats why he went bankrupt 5 times and this Government bailed him out everytime . Its called corporate welfare .

Both sides lose...

Bull !

Here, dark CNN pretending to understand what he says. DUNG

Notice his surname nuff said.

It continues to appear obvious that drumpf does NOT understand tariffs.

👎🏻

And we help stop the 'Invasion' of society sucking illegals to our country! &Calif just approved,a 98 MILLION $$ plan for illegals! Wait till the tax payers have their taxes increase 2 & 3 fold !! There should be rioting by Californians at the Capital & Gouveneur's house!! Wth !!

What the hell Carlos knows he is working against America.

I love love how y’all think smart educated people actually watch your news channel 🤣🤣🤣 like nope us smart people don’t use news channels we do our own research because every single news network has an agenda 👏🏼

Brokeahantess!

Brokahantess!

AND it could gain the US 400,000 jobs

Our man who loves his country + his people than tho who a migrants , he's right , those who don't see that should first think twice

Mexico's entire economy would collapse if we made it tough for them to export here. That's the leverage. Look at China's nosedive over the past year.

Don’t you realize Trump is using the Tarrifs as a negotiating tool to not only get the Mexican government to keep immigrants from coming to the US border but to get the congress/ Dems to vote on border security that works...

Trump usually in the long run is correct. He has showed that many times

Trump wants to be a dictator so he figures he will decide what he wants and what will be best for Putin

Former commerce secretary; the one that catered to China, Europe, Mexico & rest of the world except USA. Yeah he has a lot to say but he didn’t do squad about trade deficit. realDonaldTrump is doing something about it, maybe he will succeed maybe not, but he is doing something

Our lord chief , oyeeeee √√√

Gutierrez!!🤦🏻‍♂️ how can these guys not see? We want China to lose its strength it’s as easy as that. Not the same situation as Mexico, they will reach a deal, but with China there is no deal possible. He needs to win 2020, and then his son or his daughter in 2024

Blah blah blah Trump is a Russian agent. Blah blah blah Trump obstructive of with no underlying crime Blah blah blah Trump's going to ruin the economy. Blah blah blah Trump's going to start a nuclear war with North Korea. Blah blah blah shut the f****** already fake CNN.

Lol Trump prove are frauds again LMFAO

pres trump is right: OUR ECONOMY IS ON FIRE. we the ppl want free, fair, n reciprocal trade. whatever we do, we should never allow other countries to take advantage of us, we the american ppl, in trade, alliances, agreements, climate change speculations, etc.

Let’s continue to seek the opinion of short sighted people.

He says a lot of things. The key is knowing that he doesn't have a clue about what he's talking about. Once you know he's a lying con-man, you know you can ignore this as nothing more noise.

America had no choice but to stop the bleeding of her economy due to unfair trade practices and theft of trade secrets

Key word is “former”.....

Mr President, please help the people of Anza, CA. Gov Newsome has deployed National Guard soldiers to act as shock troopers against American citizens on American soil. He is using Blachawks and combat troops to intimidate and frighten Americans

WEll the (sucking sound' began with Bill Clinton. Somebody gotta fix it. And Perot told everyone back them this would happen. So, what do ya do? Call us Mexico? Just give up? Fix it, that's what you do.

We feel the President is in way over his head....and his staff is too frightened of him to give constructive guidance.

We all know that both sides loss and so does the President. One question Carlos, when you negotiate to you tell the other guys what you believe or what you want them to believe?

There are 8 billion people in the world, but only 330 million in US. We might not have that much leverage in a trade war against someone who want to sell their stuff to the whole world.

The American people are the losers

Republican senators step up pressure on Trump over Mexico tariffsRepublican senators warned Tuesday that President Donald Trump doesn't have the political backing to impose tariffs on Mexican goods, and that they could deal him an embarrassing rebuke if he moves forward with the levies. Uh huh. When they actually do something, it will be the first time. Money it their pocket means more that protecting our southern border. Disgusting politicians. Trump thinks Republicans are a bunch of fools to challenge his decisions. Republicans have just found out that they are a bunch of fools to have elected Trump as President.
