No, the headline does not deceive you. The New York Times got its pants in a bunch over President Donald Trump daring to refer to violent Mexican drug cartels as “terrorists” because it could supposedly harm the economy.

“How Labeling Cartels ‘Terrorists’ Could Hurt the U.S. Economy,” read the asinine January 22 news item from Times correspondents Maria Abi-Habib and Simon Romero. The authors railed against Trump’s executive order designating the cartels as “foreign terrorist organizations” and claimed that it “could force some American companies to forgo doing business in Mexico rather than risk U.S. sanctions.” Yeah, how dare Trump treat the Sinaloa and Jalisco cartels flooding America’s streets with deadly fentanyl that’s killing over 200 Americans daily as synonymous with terrorism, right? #Migraine

Thanks.... blind squirrel finds a nut every now and then.

Bottom line, DC and Wall Street despise the idea that America might find out how interwoven our leaders, NGOs, banks and businesses are with the cartels.

“LoL!! How about some details about what economic sectors would be “hurt”.”

Yes....Trump declares cartels as terror organizations, and some entities out there immediately scream. Ponder the enormity of that statement.

The "order of things" as it has been for decades is getting shaken up at long last. THAT is why all the lawfare, shrill attacks, pulling out all the stops they could muster to try and stop DJT. Their nightmare is now coming true.

We knew politicians and government employees were possibly being paid off by the cartels. But how could the NYT put out something this ridiculous without being paid off, too?

Did the Babylon Bee write this?

Good question.

Imagine if , I dunno, say in 1943 or 1944 factions in America said “Gee bombing Nazi Germany could hurt their economy.’’

Every time you think the New York Times can’t get any creepier - they surprise you - and go lower and creepier.
