As long as Mexico continues to show the sort of cooperation they brought to tariff negotiations, we need to celebrate. If not, tell them we are coming for the cartels. If they want to have an army left when we are done, keep it out of our way. The cartels think they have weapons. They have not seen the 101st Airborne with a squadron of “obsolete” A10 Warthogs for air cover. They should ask Iraq how that worked out. “Stormin’ Norman” needed less than 100 hours to eliminate the third largest army in the world. Let the Congress decide to wage war. Let the Pentagon decide how to prosecute it. Neither one makes good decisions for the other.
