#Mexico forbids killing bulls and subjecting them to the most extreme forms of torture.
#Spain is, sadly, still far behind... but I suspect that Mexico's precedent will help, not just as a good example, but also because it will severely decrease the income of many of those bullfighters (toreros).
Toreros usually travel through many countries to participate in these bloody spectacles and make a living out of it. Removing Mexico from their list will be a big thing, so it is likely that many of them will have to do something else with their lives.

"The most effective countermeasure is simple: tariffs for oligarchs. Countries should tie market access for foreign multinationals and billionaires to fair taxation. As soon as Trump follows through with tariffs on Canada and Mexico, those countries should retaliate by taxing US oligarchs."
