And why waste time finding new markets for stuff that Mexico won’t buy, which is your “solution”? That’s where the tax on funds flowing from the US to Mexico comes in. Unless that’s what you are trying to avoid.

What funds are you talking about? Tariffs aren't paid by the exporting country's(USA) sellers, they just pass the tariff's cost on to the importing country's(Mexico) consumers. The only risk to the exporting country's(America) sellers is that importing county's(Mexico) consumers won't buy as much product, because they can't afford the higher cost. So, gee, the standard of living of the Mexican consumer has just gone down. A wonderful reward to them from the Mexican government.

As for finding new markets that's what capitalism is all about. The market place is always changing, and since foreign governments are always changing their attitudes that's part of the change you have to accept and adjust to. If you can't you go out of business.
