Before this incident, one could classify Mexico as a failed state. But now, Mexico has ceased to be a state at all; it is simply an agglomeration of territory with an all-but-nonexistent central government and over which a group of warlords struggle for control

“an agglomeration of territory with an all-but-nonexistent central government and over which a group of warlords struggle for control”

That’s all its been since the 1970s.

Anyone who thought different simply wasn’t aware of the reality on the ground.

And the true government of Mexico, the warlords, pays the border Democrat politicians to keep the border wide open.
