I don't know enough about it to elaborate beyond having children circumcised has long been stated to lead to better hygene and therefore less complications due to poor hygene.

Keep in mind that around 35% of Mexico’s GDP is contingent upon exports to the USA, meanwhile only around 1% of our stuff exports to them. Then add in the remittances of dollars to Mexico, and more than 50% of the Mexican economy is contingent upon us just being friendly to their needs.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum has no clue or comprehension about the scale of Trump’s leverage over her. This is like a spoiled teenager threatening to cut up the credit card dad gave her if she can’t go to the concert. Beyond funny.
I live on the east coast in the mid atlantic. As for recent price hikes in food, no I don't blame that on Trump specifically. His poor handling of the pandemic and the impact it had on supply chain disruptions played a key role in creating the recent inflationary period. Since a lot of the latest price hikes (those in the last year or two) happened as the supply chains started getting back on track and the Biden administration success on driving the inflation rate down from 9% to around 2.3%, I blame cooporate greed taking advantage of widespread inflation to jack up prices where it would be less likely to be questioned.

Oh my! If you actually believe that nonsense I truly feel sorry for you.
I was going to dig up annual encounters but I’m not wasting my time
haha... what a load of BULLSHIT... according to customs and border control, there were 2.4m encounters during trumps time in office, and during biden it has been 10m...
going down... fuk yeah... it can't go up...
Forbes seems to have a much different take on trade between the US and Mexico then what you're suggesting here. perhaps you're looking at old data?
"Mexico did more trade with the United States in 2023 that ever and it once again become the United States’ top trade partner, according to U.S. trade data released today.
U.S. trade fell slightly 3.85% in 2023, according to U.S. Census Bureau data. The $5.1 trillion total remains the second-greatest total on record, trailing only the $5.3 trillion total in 2022.
In addition to a new top trade partner, the nation has a new top port, a new leading export and a new leading import.
Port Laredo finished as the nation’s top port for the first time on the strength of its trade with Mexico, which replaced Canada as the nation’s top trade partner after two years.
The top U.S. export for the first time was oil, which replaced gasoline and other refined petroleum products. The top import was passenger vehicles, replacing oil.
The U.S. trade deficit, the difference between exports and imports, was $1.1 trillion, the third consecutive year above the $1 trillion mark. With trade having risen so rapidly in recent years, that’s not surprising."
U.S. Does More Trade With New No. 1 Mexico In 2023 Than Ever, Data Shows
U.S. trade fell about 3.9% in 2023, according to data released today. The $5.1 trillion total remains the second-greatest total on record, trailing only the 2022 total.

Sure it can during the past year I heard Trump claim that there were 10 Million illegal, then later on 15 Million andd even more recently 20 Million. The bullshit is you just accept what Trump tells you as the gospel truth.
haha... what the fuk.... 9pct.... and he's brought it down... what a fukin saint... thanks joe...
trumps poor handling of the pandemic... it certainly was a fuk'd up time.... but joe didn't do much better- i remember in the spring biden calling on everyone to get the shot, so u can see grandma and not infect her-
more Americans died during Biden era, even with vaccine availability, compared to the Trump era.. thanks for nothing joe
if we don't export grains, exactly how would food prices go up??

Interesting. We live in the same region but seem to have experienced different things. Out of curiosity, how should trump have managed the pandemic to avoid this inflation you say he caused?
I seem to remember him not wanting to shut the country down , claiming the economic impact would be far worse ?
Whatever we were trading grain for would become more expensive.
the bullshit i am accepting is from the govt... the govt that biden has been running (now thats a funny) for 4yrs... trump can say its 10/20 or 50.... the figures i gave is from the govt

These guys talk so tough about freedom but I remember who mandated vaccines that didn’t even prevent transmission
Yes there have been long standing subsidies that usually involved paying farmers to not grow certain crops. I'm not talking about those. I'm talking specifically new subsidies that were instituted during the Trump trade wars where China stopped taking orders for crops (mostly soybean and corn) cauding much of the crops meant for China to go to waste. As a result they petitioned Trump for new subsidies to make up for their losses so that they could continue to be in business and plant new crops. If you want you can find numerous interviews with actual farmers where they discussed this in great detail.
yep.... remember going places, and u had better be carrying your vac card...
