1. Like Trump in US, Mexico rolls dice with populist president

From The Hill: "Mexico resides in a major earthquake zone, and Sunday they experienced a really big one — though this time the shock was political, not geological."

2. With Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, will Donald Trump stop hating Mexico? Not a chance.

From USA TODAY: "Trump would be wise to work with AMLO on NAFTA and border security. But don't hold your breath for that to happen."

3. Mexico's next president is the perfect foil to Trump

From CNN: "Lopez Obrador may be the best candidate among a weak field, but his presidency is unlikely to produce a functional relationship with the US."
