I believe our President when he suggests this is cartel cover. Mexico’s President can’t control the cartels there.

the Mexican troops were not really interested in securing their country’s border as they were assisting a drug cartel

Assisting a drug cartel do what? Bring drugs into America? (I'm sure our libertarian FReepers love that.)

Which means more messycan criminal invaders coming in.

Mr. Trump. Build that wall. Secure the borders. It's been years. Years, and the problem is worse than ever.

What an outrageously novel concept—defending a sovereign nation from invasion by foreign nationals and foreign police and foreign drug dealers at the border by arming your own military, issuing them orders to shoot, and placing them there. I’m sure it’s never been tried anywhere else before. Where do these wild ideas come from?

Mexico is corrupt. I honestly think they need help.

Look, we know Washington is corrupt too. No need to go into that right now.

Trump is right to arm our troops.

If this happens again, we can simply take the fight to them for a change.

Start leveling known cartel sites for all I care.

I probably did not have a bullet in my pocket like Barney Fife when I was in the Army. And if I didn’t, it certainly was not a tracer round.

Foolish media: Trump isn’t escalating anything, the Mexicans did. We are only responding in kind.

Good, now a few Obama promoted Generals need their quisling asses fired, and we’ll be satisfied.

It’s an escalation to have armed military in our own country.
