Considering Dual Citizenship with Mexico

My dad is American born, my mom is from Mexico. My mom obtained her citizenship about 2.5 decades ago. I am considering obtaining my dual US/Mexican citizenship. My dad says he thinks doing that may create problems for me in the near future or when traveling. Anyone in the sub have dual citizenship and can speak to any benefits when traveling abroad with a dual US/Mexican citizenship? I am concerned about the direction the country is politically headed, but I don't think Mexico is much better.
