This is important with Central America and South Americans.

Here is South America, the Peruanos recently tossed Fujimora and his Intel Chief in prison for todas las vidas para desapariciones. And for flying all of the countries remaining Inca gold out of the country on helicopters when he started getting in trouble.

Argentina had the dirty war.

Other countries have similar histories.

Trump did well. They need to know he respects familias and libertad.
