This comes after a report claimed Trump's administration is considering drone strikes on drug cartels in Mexico to combat trafficking across the shared border.
That's fucking wild! Mexico is not South Sudan or Afghanistan, failed states ruled by warlords. It will start with "we're only targetting cartels" and conclude with "these terrorists are purposely using hospital staff as human shields, what would you have us do?!"
I'll be interested to see how that pans out. Another powerful Dictator recently invaded a much smaller weaker nation, and that didn't turn out how everyone expected, so...
There are over 65 MILLION hispanic people in the US, many of them have family or other connections in Mexico.
If this clown started a war with fucking Mexico, it would end just like his "war with canada" with millions of people marching on DC and dragging his bloated, festering orange ass out of the white house with force and likely exacting their own justice out on the lawn. Americans have been wounded, but they still have limits.
Trump (or his team) know this, that's why they're saying all this shit, because they KNOW it riles up people who aren't his supporters. They are deliberately trying to stoke division so that the Trump-haters and Trump-lovers go to war with each other. That is their ideal fantasy because it would allow martial law, revocation of rights, and like, five more terms of various Trump family members sitting on the throne.
Their trick is going to be riding the line long enough so that people tune out and stop caring about the lesser crimes he's doing all day, every day.
If you want to know how it came to be that Palestinians elected and supported Hamas, just watch in real time as Mexican cartels step up to help Mexico resist American imperialism. I guarantee it will play out in an eerily familiar way if Trump keeps playing these games.
Not quite - he wants them to be subordinate to him.
In olden days, Kings would force fealty by forcing others to "kiss the ring". That's exactly what he tries to do - and what was behind the ridiculous display with his guest, President Zelensky.
We've seen him hide behind his title again and again when people challenge him "You don't speak to the president like that!" Yet any small successes are entirely his doing. Shameful, if the man had any shame whatsoever.
I mean... I'm sorry to say, but they are. Not what I want but how it is. The US has controlled and bullied its neighbors and South America for a while now.
