INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana — Former President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively that he supports a proposal from Reps. Michael Waltz (R-FL) and Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) that would authorize the use of military force against Mexican drug cartels to target the criminal enterprises and dismantle them.
“I would do that,” Trump said when asked about the congressmen’s Authorization for the Use of Military Force (AUMF) legislation that they have recently proposed.

Before and of that talk, let's here about the following:
- Forming law enforcement task forces, nationwide, to target the known cartel operations here in the US ..... catch the guys and within 24hrs, deported. Hopefully, they decide to shoot it out with the cops and end up dead at which time they can be thrown in an incinerator.

- Expose AMLO and the previous Mexican President and their "alleged" ties to the Cartels. The intel is somewhere, use it.
- Find and seize ANY piece of property owned by any member of the cartels, to include family members
Finally and MOST IMPORTANTLY...

If this is true, expose it all. Every bit of it.
I doubt you'd have to send on GI over the border.
He’s completely right and would let them know they aren’t dealing with a weakling.
One thing about those guys...they sneer at weaklings and respect power.
In response to Waltz’s AUMF plan, Mexican president Andrés Manuel López Obrador has said he opposes it and even threatened to interfere in U.S. elections to help Democrats and oppose Republicans in response
Oh hell no.
If we were asked for help, certainly that is a different conversation.
Neocon.
Screw that just build the damn wall.
They are setting him up... This ain’t going to fly in our country or in Mexico and they know it.
It flies just fine and let me remind you that the democrats are completely sold out to the drug cartels that should be obvious by almost all of their policies.
If we declare war against Mexico, that’s the military’s job.
The military should not be used as a proxy for law enforcement other than providing high tech surveillance from satellites, or possible air and helo transport for LE.
Operating US troops in Mexico is the fastest way possible to have them corrupted, with the US military becoming part of the cartels. Trump floats trial balloons and this one needs to pop.
Screw that just build the damn wall.
Yes, but lay waste to any illegal operation 100 miles deep in the Mexican shithole.
During the Drug War in Columbia back in the 80s, President Reagan considered bombing the rural estates of the Narcos. It was deemed too controversial.
Crenshaw is a neocon deep state scumbag. If he’s ffor it I’m against it. This has nothing to do with drug cartels it’s about inserting our forces within Mexico and perhaps assisting in the overthrow of AMLO if he gets out of line. These neocons wont be happy until they turn every country in the world against us.
If Mexico asks for help that would be fine
otherwise build the wall and makes sure not a single Mexican gets into our country.
NO ONE, including Trump, could dismantle/destroy the Cartels......they’re the Golden Goose for the CIA/NSA/etc., and the government ALSO is funded by business interests who force the former USA to keep the borders open and cheap labor and drugs flowing.
“In response to Waltz’s AUMF plan, Mexican president Andrés Manuel López Obrador has said he opposes it and even threatened to interfere in U.S. elections to help Democrats and oppose Republicans in response”
That’s what the Monroe Doctrine is all about.
Breitbart is a worthless organization that now censors any opinion not matching their increasingly leftist agenda. Andrew must be rolling in his grave.
I have a better solution.
Anyone found smuggling Fentanyl is a Federal offense punishment is DEATH.
No appeals process.
Execution on national TV by Hanging.
The military cannot act within our country because of the Posse Comitatus Act which bars federal troops from participating in civilian law enforcement. And Mexico would make us declare war with them before they will ever let us operate in their country.
So no... It will never fly.
Overall. You’re 100% correct.
But the folks needed to do this are still rather good at their jobs.
I disagree.
Put teams in the known smuggling route. Engage them on our side and let it become an operation of attrition. Eventually the cartels won’t have anyone to mule their fentanyl and meth.
Just handle it on our side.
I would however, have zero problem with putting out to the world where all the cartel labs are, etc. you’d force mexicos hand into doing something.
