Mexican President Plays chicken with Trump

Timothy Birdnow

Two people were killed in South Texas from improvised explosive devices (IED's) set by the drug cartels in reprisal for the military crackdown on the border.

So the Cartels are going to go all Hamas on us, eh? You'd think they would have gotten the message from watching what Netenyahu did to Hamas but apparently not. They have declared war on us.

Donald Trump isn't going to play the "whack-a-Mole" game with them (like Biden or prior Presidents did with terrorists); he's going to go into Mexico after them. The Cartels are signing their death warrants.

The Texas Attorney General's Office put out the following statement:

And how is Mexico responding? The Al Dente' El Presidente' is trying to change the Mexican law so as to protect the Cartels.

From the Politico story:


Does Scheinbaum REALLY want to play chicken with Donald Trump?

Trump can hurt Mexico eight ways from Sunday. Mexico owes us billions of dollars in borrowed debt; we can call the loan in any time we please. (And in the crazy world the liberals built we owe MEXICO money they lent us on OUR debt - essentially we are borrowing from ourselves - but nowhere near as much as they owe us.) We also have given them huge amounts of foreign aid through USAID, which is now being cut off (no doubt part of why Scheinbaum is pulling this now.) With ramping up American oil production we can take all of Pemex customers (the governement-owned Mexican oil company.) Much of what we buy from Mexico can be obtained elsewhere. Here are the top exports to the U.S.:

Iron and steel

$5.58B

Pearls, precious stones, metals, coins

$5.46B

Railway, tramway locomotives, rolling stock, equipment
$4.12B

Rubbers
$3.79B

By rubbers I assume they mean rubber products and not condoms, although given the way they have screwd us over the years condoms would be appropriate. You will note that none of this stuff cannot be acquired elsewhere - even made here. Do we really need coins, or farm equipment made in Mexico? And we have plenty of iron to make steel here; we just closed the foundaries and bought from abroad.

The point is they need us and they can be made to damned well understand that fact. Trump won't let them just flip us the bird in this fashion.
