Mexico is already broken and we bought it a long time ago. American dollars are the backbone of their economy.
So while I can't, at this time, support an invasion of Mexico, I could support military operations five to ten miles south of our border as a show of force to protect our border towns. Peace through strength or peace through shock and awe, whichever works.
Trump was talking about back in the early nineties that we should have invaded Mexico instead of taking out Saddam.
His point was that Iraq was a buffer against Iran, which was quite true.
Saddam’s use of WMD’s...gas...against his own people and the fact that he had more WMD which he could use probably was what took us to Iraq.
Of course pols today on both sides will not admit that Saddam had WMDs, and of course the dems stalled going into Iraq to give time for the WMD’s and other weapons and billions in American dollars to be sent to Syria.
Good idea to go 5mi or so into Mexico and set up a buffer for the safety of out border cities.
We also should go into Mexico and take over some of their oil production (commandeer seems a good word to use here) in order to offset the expenses caused by the illegal alien invading criminals who have come to our country.
It’s up in the hundreds of billion$, and it is the responsibility of the Mexican government to pay for their citizens’ expenses as they are encouraging them to invade our country.
Let THEIR government pay.
