That is not going to happen.
Mexico's all advantage is its location, being placed next to the number 1 economy in the world, and being in a free trade relationship with it.
In trade, distance, and gravity of it matters. Mexico is ultimately a cheap location that American companies go to, near the US, for their manufacturing.
Well, if trump get's his wall which just got 10 feet higher on the mexican border, and his threat/plan to put a 35% tariff on all american companies that move their manufacturing to mexico then you have to see from the Mexican point of view... which is to hedge their bets. Mexico's economy will be completely fcked if trump fulfill his campaign promises (and he might to keep his base happy).
Trump's Mexican wall and making mexico PAY for it.
