for anyone paying attention, it’s obvious some in the US government are profiting from drug trade.
Its obvious from the fight over the wall that people want the crime to continue, as there is no other reason for people to cross illegally.
Just some?
“Some”? How about MOST. Most are influenced by or financed by the drug trade or criminal activity in some fashion, whether direct or indirect. I can assure you that some weren’t aware of the source of their campaign contributions at the time they first ran for election, but those who stuck around long enough either know or suspect if they have even two brain cells to rub together. As a friend who served two terms in Congress told me, “I began to wonder, ‘Why the hell would they want me to vote against that?’ There was only one plausible reason.”
He didn’t run for a third term.
