Mexico makes sense, there's NAFTA, just pay transport, tariffs/customs are waived. Not really weird, take a look at cars and manufacturing and it's been that way for the over the past two decades.

I thought Trump got rid of NAFTA?

There were some slight changes in a few areas but it’s essentially the same. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States–Mexico–Canada_Ag...

What Trump sank was the US joining the Trans Pacific Partnership.

No, he 're-negotiated' NAFTA as the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement, or USMCA.

There weren't that many changes, but he did implement the TPP's intellectual property rules.
