Mexico Worries Trump Will Order Strikes Against Drug Cartels

[Mr. Friscus]

Trump talks big.

Just seems like you’d root against him over drug cartels. All day.

That's like rooting for the Rebels over the Empire. Science fiction.

They already are

There was no 'war on drugs'. A real war would have shut it down.

That's right all there was....was a seizure of the money flow. The agencies moved in for their cut.

 

[justoffal]

Look at how you’re pouting that the guy you oppose would go after drug cartels.

That’s a good thing doofus. But hey, party over morality?

Whoever is Trump's enemy becomes their friend and ally.

The Democrats were the big deep state Empire.

America went into Mexico to pursue Pancho Villa, and under Obama, America went into Pakistan to pursue Osama Ladin as well.

The precedents are there.

BTW, Mexico is free to resolve their own crime problem. If the cartels are suppressed by noon on 20 January, the US won't do a damned thing.

The Roosevelt Corollary is an important part of international law that gives America the right to do this, and the Mexican government knows it.

The cartel isn't one man. Al Qaeda isn't one man. The US also captured and arrested El Chappo, once the king of the cartels. Have the cartels collapsed since then? Have they stopped exporting drugs into the US? If anything they've probably gotten more violent and brutal since. There is ALWAYS someone ready to take over. You need to go in and start killing each cartel member like they did with Isis and Al Qaeda. That will require a declaration of war and years upon years of hitting Mexico with bombs, and bringing in military vehicles, jets and other equipment. In the end, you may temporarily stop or slow down the flow of drugs into the US, but you'll never kill the demand. The demand in the US is too high. Someone else will come along and try and fill the need.

Pancho Villa was a Criminal in charge of a Gang

How is Trump going to use the military to make strikes into Mexico without an act of war declared?

How did Obama, Clinton, and Biden bomb nations without an act of war declared? Try harder.
