Mexico is a socialist government.

The tariff impacts their national economy (government budget) by 5%. The GDP of Mexico isn’t just “tied” to the economy...it is the foundation of their national budget. In socialist countries, tariffs are paid by the government, not passed along to consumers.
The government will have to raise taxes to industry, impacting several US based manufacturers.

The US manufacturers will put heavy pressure on Mexico...or, leave.
Trump warned them.
