Any chance Bukele could go to war against the Cartel?

Since there is no chance US Congress would sanction this. Couldn’t we just let Bukele take the Cartel out? We can somehow fund it (indirectly) as needed
We could then use El Salvador to stop the caravans and any trafficking coming through Central America

The cartels could take over his country if they wanted. He doesn't have anywhere close to the resources to beat them 
Thinking he could go to Mexico and do anything against the cartels is leaving reality and going beyond high fantasy.

Remember when you compared the US fighting the cartel to Afghanistan?

Probably not. The cartels are orders of magnitude more capable than the Haitian gangs he is currently taking out.

There is a reason why we're not engaging in that insane version of muh fight

If a war was necessary, we should have chosen a war with Mexican cartels instead fighting Israel's war across the globe

Well that would certainly upset a lot of people at Langley if he did.

I believe he can prevent the above without being "used" by the US. However, if the conflict were to widen due to cartel response, there would be a reaction from the US with forces already stationed where needed for such response.

And the reason(s) do not include the United States would struggle with the cartel.
Drone capabilities in Afghanistan were basically non existent compared to what the military has in 2026.
But you’re a moron so

Absolutely, which is why I pray the current CIA Director is pulling those weeds out on a daily basis.

Mexico isn't going to permit indiscriminate drone killings in Mexico
*ETA: let me predict your fake macho response: "we won't need their permission"

Fighting the cartels would look absolutely nothing like fighting the Taliban. To suggest it would is fricking stupid.
