USA President Donald Trump threatening Mexico with tariffs as a massive Mexican caravan heads toward the U.S. border.

President Trump's threat to immediately double tariffs on Mexico unless it stops a migrant caravan of about 1,500 people moving north from Tapachula, Chiapas, after Democratic midterm gains.

News sources like Reuters and EL PAÍS confirm the caravan formed in early November 2026, with Trump stating on Truth Social that migrants "will not be accepted" and linking the movement to perceived policy shifts.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum responded that no caravans have reached the U.S. border since Trump returned to office, with authorities providing information to migrants and pursuing returns to countries of origin amid ongoing U.S.-Mexico trade talks.
