‘It’s That Simple’: Mark Meckler Says The Only Way To Secure The Border Is By Invading Mexico
‘It’s That Simple’: Mark Meckler Says The Only Way To Secure The Border Is By Invading Mexico | Right Wing Watch
"Trump never took us into a war." -- Trump fans. And yet he and his people keep talking about war.
War at home no less...
The problem with bombing your neighbour is that the guy whose family you just massacred can buy a bomb and a drone from AliExpress with free shipping and fast delivery (nobody will catch it on the border in Mexico), just grab it and walk across to Manhattan and blow it up on Times Square or the NYSE.
Sure, you can catch the guy. Can you catch all the thousands of guys? If they do it organized by the cartels? Ukrainian SF could infiltrate the back country of Russia and blow up vital train lines along with a train full of military supplies. Would someone who kinda looks Mexican not blend in in the US?
They only need to succeed once for thousands to die. What would the US do with a violent 9/11 every week? How long until it went over to Endlösung-ing everyone who looks Spanish? What if those people start shooting back instead of being quietly led away?
The fact that noone has set off a dirty bomb in NY harbour is either a miracle or an indication that it's not a priority for "the terrorists".
If he gets back in, why not end the world before his second term is up? He can't get re-elected so no need to show the level-headedness, restraint and tact he's known for.
Invade Mexico, get bogged down in a forever war with more convenient flights home while on leave. Tell the world that now we're cool with kicking down your neighbor's door to break their stuff. Russia Russias all over the internet about it because Ameri-Ukrainian bio-engineered super soldiers or something, the CCP invades Taiwan (everybody else is doing it, why can't we?), probably a bunch of other conflicts that won't hit the front page while the adults are squabbling. Iran steps up their attacks on the US while Russian and Chinese money and materiel flood into Mexico to support their defense. Red-hat chicken-hawks too old to get drafted eat it up, approval ratings outside the echo chamber take a nosedive. Now faced with the possibility of losing an unpopular war, Donnie can either accept it with grace or knock down all the sandcastles on the beach on the way out and be The Last President. Which do you think he'd choose?
I am honestly terrified that if he gets in and finds out he's dying he'll decide to take the world with him.
Now I'm imagining that he's back in office and just arrived at the realization that he's mortal rather than the terminal illness scenario you probably had in mind. Overgrown toddler having an existential crisis tantrum with the capability (in theory, at least) to launch nuclear strikes.
I'm scared too, not only of what he'd do but what it'll mean about us if we put him back in there.
save your pitch for the publisher. (or do you think you can get a studio to buy it?)
Not sure I'd watch that movie, the characters are unrealistically stupid and cartoonishly evil without a good explanation (other than lead which has been brought up elsewhere) written into the plot.
tell the story from the perspective of a high school math teacher.
i think you can get 4 or 5 books out of it, or maybe 2 or 3 seasons on netflix before you are cancelled.
i want .05% in perpetuity. payable in dogecoin.
edit:
spoof breaking bad. name him Mr. Grey (Gregory Grey), and give him an alter ego named goedel.
You can take that one, it'll be the Fifty Shades of Grey to my Twilight.
