Awwww Geeeeezzz
Mexico is a toilet.
This bozo is as crazy as Al Gore!!
It is. so why haven't they flushed him down yet, together with his crowd of supporters?
I hope John Kerry doesn't see this and get ideas!
Wasn't that long ago that the Mexicans had a really bloody civil war that ended in dictatorship. Sounds like they're fixing to have another one.
It would be nice to have some real border control when that war kicks off. Sigh
Believe me, Kerry and all the Dems are watching eagerly. After all, Obrador got his "object to the election" technique from the Dems, and I'll bet they are going to learn a few techniques from him now.
The sooner they get it on and let the blood flow, the sooner they may be able to build a legitimate functioning country.
It can't happen too soon.
>>>>>"Sounds like they're fixing to have another one"<<<<<
Probably end up bloodied and have two Dictators, they will cut a deal and divide the spoils. Who will get what?
TT
Commies gone mad worldwide. First Putin poisons a dissident in London, and now this Orbidor guy declares himself President of Mexico.
They have let this fester long enough, its eating them from the inside out.
Ellos cagan en nosotros.
Someone needs to share their bullets with that man.
Wow, this gets more like the Gore-thing everyday!
But Obrador looks better in a sash...
That about summarizes Kerry's sense of timing. LOL!
Americans should boycott travel to Mexico.
Pelosi is going to try the same thing once she sees how it plays out.
