The amount of Fentanyl coming into the USA is at record levels according to Trump.


He's wrong though.

The amount of seizures is at record levels - the amount coming in is still the same or less.

Biden is actually doing something about it, whereas Trump did nothing - he just let it flow across the border with hardly any seizures.

"There were nearly 70,000 pounds of fentanyl seized along the Southwest [U.S.] border in the 24 months ending in August 2024," said Jen Daskal, a deputy assistant to President Biden on the National Security Council who focuses on fentanyl policy. "That's more fentanyl seized in the past two fiscal years than in the prior five years combined."




Trump wants to stop it being made in the first place - in China.

Tariffs will do it.

The Biden administration said Friday that it has finalized tariff hikes on certain Chinese-made products that the president first announced in May.

The tariff rate will go up to 100% on electric vehicles, to 50% on solar cells and to 25% on electrical vehicle batteries, critical minerals, steel, aluminum, face masks and ship-to-shore cranes beginning September 27, according to the US Trade Representative’s Office.

Tariff hikes on other products, including semiconductor chips, are set to take effect over the next two years.

Because Biden didn't say tariffs will stop fentanyl from being made in China.

Why didn't sleepy Joe Biden do that?


Because of the trade wars, cost of living issues people are already feeling and the inevitable tanking of the economy overall with out-of-control inflation and higher interest rates?

Even if they are being used as threats to get what he wants, they're entirely empty.

Not even Trump is dumb enough to actually go through with the tariffs.

Where Things Stand
President-elect Donald J. Trump said on Monday that he would impose 25 percent tariffs on all products coming into the United States from Canada and Mexico on his first day in office, writing on Truth Social, “This Tariff will remain in effect until such time as Drugs, in particular Fentanyl, and all Illegal Aliens stop this Invasion of our Country!” The move would scramble North American supply chains and impose heavy costs on businesses around the continent.

Putting the screws on the ChiComms is a GOOD thing.
The bastards, who got into the WTO on lying false pretences, have been getting away with WAAAAY too much lying, cheating.

Scrutinizing ChiComm imports and sending the Delta Force against the cartels will make a difference. Telling China to reign in its fentanyl exporters if it wants to export legit goods will be another lever.
