    The US created the cartels with their disastrous war on drugs. The solution isn’t invading, it’s ending the failed war!

    I know Americans have trouble understanding this, but the solution to most problems isn’t escalating it with another war and bombing the shit out of something.

      I wasn’t advocating for invading, just saying it could accidentally work out. Mostly a bad cop good cop thing. Trump being the bad cop, and the next pres runs on being the good cop who repairs the relationship and actually solves the problem. Which certainly would need to include changes in drug policy in the US.
