Original Note:
The claim that "tariffs are to be paid for by Mexican producers" is misleading. Tariffs are taxes imposed by a government on imported goods. Tariffs are paid by the importing country's businesses (in this case, U.S. importers of Mexican goods). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tariff https://www.investopedia.com/terms/t/tariff.asp
