Mexican cartel operatives truly fearful of Trump's drastic actions | Blaze Media
'The most important thing now is to survive.'

The cartels in Mexico are taking steps to avoid the intense heat that has now found them ever since President Donald Trump entered the White House for the second time.
The New York Times revealed amid Trump's threats of tariffs and using the U.S. military to directly confront them, along with the Mexican government's renewed pressure campaign, cartel leaders have taken steps to protect themselves and their businesses.
"One cartel leader says he’s trying to figure out how to protect his family in case the American military strikes inside Mexico. Another says he’s already gone into hiding, rarely leaving his home. Two young men who produce fentanyl for the cartel say they have shut down all their drug labs," the Times reported.
I think this is probably the most we can hope for, that is, the cartel drug lords have at least some fear for murdering about 400 Americans every day with their illegal drugs.
I'm sure they have their plants in the system to prevent any real retribution for their war on America from ever happening, so at least them living is fear is better than nothing.
