Trump says he will put a tariff on Mexico to stop flow of fentanyl into US

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump warned on Monday that, if elected, he would punish Mexico with tariffs unless the Mexican government moved to stop the flow of fentanyl into the United States.

At a rally in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Trump said he would move quickly to crack down on drug trafficking along the southern U.S. border with Mexico and that he would use tariffs. "We will immediately stop the drugs pouring across our border," he said.
