In theory nothing, in practice how do you determine who is who?

100 mile wide DMZ buffer zone?


This would literally involve relocating millions of people between the US and Mexico. San Diego/Tijuana, El Paso/Juarez, Brownsville/Matamoros, and McAllen/Reynoso is well over 5 million people.

Easiest way to fix our relationship with Mexico:

1) Elect Trump since the Democrats won't do any of the necessary steps;
2) Bring manufacturing back from Asia and let Trump impose his 100% tariff on Chinese goods;
3) Give Mexico some of that manufacturing which creates jobs in MX and keeps cost reasonable for US consumers;
4) Secure the southern border of the US;
5) Assist the Mexican military with securing their southern border;
6) Have the CIA and DEA stop causing drama with the cartels; and
7) Tell Sheinbaum we will make her life hell if she doesn't play ball

There will be collateral damage. It will be sad but nothing really to lose any sleep over.

You're just throwing shite against the wall without any thought to logistics, or legality. Makes the thought worthless.

We can do that and also carry out a targeted assassination campaign against cartels members and corrupt policemen and politicians with our drones and special forces.



We have such a long and storied history of success with meddling in Latin American affairs. /s

Bro, we fought what was probably an illegal war on the other side of the planet for nearly 2 decades. You trying to tell me that Mexico is a logistical challenge?

Well maybe I am getting soft, but I personally don't want to see a bunch of innocent Mexicans killed because Psych23 wants to start a war with a country for no reason.

As opposed to innocent Americans getting killed by drug and gang violence. The poorest, most uneducated and disease ridden Mexicans pouring across the border importing their shitty food and even shittier language? Better their innocents die than ours I say.

For 30 years I've always said how dumb it is to let them slide. Just go in and eliminate cartels in a week. Burn the crops and destroy all drug operations.
Honestly, wtf are they gonna do?
Put a 6 month NO travel ban, so Americans can't go and spend money there. And stop all imports until they comply with our demands.

Problem solved

We need to finish the border wall and beef up our Border Patrol and ICE. Then we need to start rounding up illegals for deportation, end TPS, end DACA, and end the CHNV parole program. Countries that refuse to take back their illegals need to face sanctions.

No. We need to be less involved in foreign countries, not more involved. The last 25 years of poor foreign policy have gotten us 35 trillion in debt. Seal the border and handle our own sh*t.

I do. It makes a lot more sense than spending trillions to kill goat fricking Arabs and helping Ukraine kill Russians on the other side of the planet. Meanwhile we have cartels and coyotes sending drugs and rapists across our own border killing thousands of people each day.

What would be so wrong with invading, killing everyone associated with drugs or human trafficking and then setting up a 100 mile wide DMZ buffer zone?


JFC. And you're allowed to vote?

what about the other Central Americans? Will the problem we have now just move between the Mexico/Guatemala border?

If we would adjust our focus to the West side of the hemisphere, we could do a lot of good in Mexico. Helping them, helps us, everyone can win.

Jesus, I wonder how some of you manage to remember to breathe when you wake up in the morning you are so stupid. Have you ever left whatever shithole you're from?

There's bad ideas, and then there is stuff like this. If you want to create the mother of all insurgencies, then that's how you do it. It would make Iraq and Syria look like kindergarten.
