In part but I'll say what the other countries of the western hemisphere won't.
We don't want this country near us. Please help.

I dont really either, but I do know the CIA is, which is what he said he trusted.


I think he's lying. No one trusts the CIA


I admit that I really have no perspective of how an agency like the CIA operates.
That being said, I would guess the agency is very compartmentalized and again, I trust Trump understands this better than myself. Who, what, and where he can trust. IMHO

Venezuela has something under ground that Mexico does not have. At least not in the quantity that Venezuela has plus I'm sure Trump doesn't want a conflict on our border

Mexican cartels are middle men. Venezuela is one of the places where they actually make cocaine…and oil.

Yep. Even the cartel bosses, as terrifying as they are, have their masters too.

Who says we aren't? A strong arse message is being sent to Mexico, and the rest of the narco-States. Get your shite together or you are next.

I don't know, but its probably because they have a shite ton more intelligence than we do in making these important strategic decisions.

Just a wild guess.

Venezuela is ground zero for spreading voting fraud software that have influenced multiple elections. The cartels are involved as financiers and are synonymous with the government.

You’re comparing bombing boats in international waters with bombing cartels on Mexican soil?

Durgs like cocaine don’t originate from Mexico. Peru, Bolivia, Brazil and Columbia are the biggest cultivators. Mexico is just the middle man. If the go after the source they won’t need to touch Mexico.
