If the cartels are terrorist organisations, then who is funding them? The Texas cartel, the California Cartel, The New York Cartel. Never heard of? Neither have I, wonder why.

In reply to Estaban.

I looked it up, it is about 100 million (0.1 billion). That includes the money the US sends to “Mexicans against corruption” to interfere in politics instead of actually work against corruption. Tourism funds are actually not sent, they are hard earned and I wonder how much of it actually stays in Mexico. And remittances? Also hard earned and probably taxes are also paid on it.

The US also needs to take responsibility for the fact that the firearms used by the cartels are imported from the good old USA. The US only wants to talk about what the cartels are sending north and acknowledge what we are sending south.

America needs to come to terms with its insatiable appetite for drugs. In lieu of that, this will continue regardless of the political party in power.

The soon to be felon, adjudicated rapist in chief does not have the backing of the U.S. citizens. The majority DID NOT vote for him. Thus, the orange turd has no mandate. Look what fine ethics gaetz would have brought to the job of AG. Wonder what skeletons donnie’s other picks have hidden away for blackmail. And they are going to get rid of the cartels? They are most likely in bed with them or will be.

How attractive simple solutions to complex problems can sound! Like the election of Trump: only a nation in decline would ever allow such an idiot to ascend to the presidency. Twice! Only a nation in decline would produce such flaccid opposition in the form of the Democratic Party. Not only that, but how well did interventions work out for the US in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan? Closer to home, how about Chile, Guatemala,, Nicaragua, and El Salvador? Think a US invasion of Mexico would go well? Good luck with that. If past performance is any indicator of future results, and I think it is, nationbuilding isn’t exactly our strong suit. No, the solution lies elsewhere.
