Trump proposed bombing Mexico and it somehow wasn’t a big story

The thing about Trump's whole political career that I find most incredible is that just about any one shitty thing he ever did, in isolation, would have been absolutely career ending for anyone else, or in the very least a massive, historically significant scandal. But with him? He just keeps the hits coming, so many disasters in such quick succession that none of them really have time to sink in, there's no time to really examine them because by the time you've really called him out, there's already some other stupid shit taking up the headlines.

Obama wore a tan suit, the News cycle freaked out. Obama asked for Dijon mustard on his burger, the news says he's hopelessly out of touch with the common people. These were SCANDALS in the public eye. Trump proposes just bombing Mexico... we have to go out of our way to point out that this is actually a big deal, because next week he'll have done something else completely insane.

Trump saying something extremely irresponsible and stupid isn't newsworthy anymore.

I remember debating with my buddy (he's pro-Russia) about the Ruso-Ukrainian war when it broke out, and my saying how Russia invading Ukraine because of Nazi gangs is a pretty flim flam excuse for a land grab. "It would be like the US invading Mexico and seizing territory because of the drug cartels", I said. Why is my country this way.

How sad is it that I learned about Trump's plan to bomb Mexico not from American news media, but from alarmed Mexican friends.

So that's the plan, Mexico is going to be Trump's Poland.

Republicans in 2028:

"We can't have an election during a war! The election is suspended until the war with Mexico* is over."

*-technically the war is with Mexican cartels, not the Mexican government, so as long as we say at least 1 cartel still exists the war isn't over.

So how come nobody is talking about it?

Indeed, Vox news. How come, indeed.

Trump is an idiot but I've always wondered why the u.s and mexico don't join up and use the same force on cartels that they do on middle Eastern militants. If they went after cartels the way they do jihadists across the planet, there wouldn't be cartels left

It's quite amazing how the right adapted anti-war talking points, while they themselves are also warhawks.

“Media source stunned by the utter lack of balance and journalistic ethics in reporting on the US Presidential campaign because clicks matter more than facts when it comes to profits, are shocked to find nobody else has done the right thing either”.

Ok, so now that they realize it what will they do?

Trump asked for plans to invade Mexico:

Anyone got a link to video or audio of this?

If he bomb mexico, I believe mexico will flood US market with cheap meth and fentanyl as answer even more.

I swear to God I think he got this idea from Ben Shapiro's moronic ass book.

Probably because this is the tenth time he's said that.

I hope narcos begin to target republican politicians. It's as easy as sending a well-dressed and mannered kid to enter the country as a tourist or whatever, give him a gun and let him pop the head of one of these demons while they're eating in peace with their family at some fancy restaurant. Nobody will ever capture the kid because he will just run away, americans carrying guns won't be enough
