Letting things "Crash and burn" is historically not a great tactic for a governing party. Remember how well Hurricane Katrina went for President
Bush?

Now class, lets stick to the subject and not wonder off on this.
Please start another thread to discuss politics if it doesn't pertain to the $ and peso.

I'm not sure the peso has strengthened across the board but I do know that the USdollar has weakened against the basket of international currencies.
This is one of the things the Trumpocracy wants, a cheaper dollar makes US exports easier to sell. The Fed raising rates counters this to some degree
and confidence in the new administration is not increasing. Trump continues to erode and erase what many consider progress with his executive orders,
today I think he's rolling back environmental protections for auto emissions. There is a broad range of rollbacks he can accomplish because Congress
has been useless for the past 8 years and they continue to be useless now. The GOP has been fractionated by the TeaParty and now the Freedom Caucus
along with a few other right wing extremists. Moderate Republican is now and endangered species and oxymarooon. I think the USdollar will not weaken
much further until another yuuuge deficit budget is shown.

Results are hard to argue with, prior to my trip last month I exchanged at an official rate of >22:1 and and effective rate of 22.4:1. While in
Baja sur we hit an ATM in Vizcaino and got an effective rate of 17.7:1 after fees. A bit more expensive than the first exchange. If I was spending
$$K's of dollars it would matter to me but as a cheap moto rider spending $ it didn't hurt much. If I got paid in Pesos, I would not be pleased with
the past 10 years and that is much more significant.
