I hear ya. That’s all possible.

As I said to someone else just now, we either get our act
together or our citizens will have the same exact problems
the Mexican do now. The cartels...

Yeah, Mexican presidents generally do have a big mouth, but
when it comes to cleaning up their act so the average
Mexican can live a decent life, they can’t be bothered.

Good campaign rhetoric.

Beats the Hell out of screaming in the middle of the night on Social Media at enemies.

The fact is, AMLO protects the cartels.

Nuke cartels from orbit, you are nuking AMLO.

He is open. In other words, it won’t happen

I fully understand why many would choose Trump, I don’t understand why they feel they must destroy Desantis in the process?

It is what Trumpaholics do.

The source of fentanyl, the drug that is killing so many people, is Red China. The Mexican cartels are in cahoots with the CCP, which is essentially a large Mafia that runs China. The CCP is using fentanyl in the way the British and French used opium two centuries ago: as a tool to subvert national independence. The cartels control local governments in places like Phoenix. Chinese money lines the pockets of politicians from Biden on down. Can DeSantis or even Trump break this chain of corruption?

You don’t like it when someone challenges your over the top Trump narrative do you?

Patton led about a dozen men on a “foraging expedition” looking for food. They ran across some of Villa’s men, and shooting commenced. When Patton and his men returned, they had bodies strapped to their cars. https://www.wearethemighty.com/mighty-history/patton-leads-first-armor-attack/

Patton was a very tough guy—not just an image he developed.

I’m lucky to have visited his museum a few times and the kid/man was well versed in all sorts of fighting.

Expert pistol marksman (and rifle )
Sword Duelist—Olympic caliber (the USA still uses the Sabre design he created in Olympic sports…or did)
Owned his first weapon at some ridiculous age like 5-6

He personally killed more bandits/revolutionaries than the rest of his entire large squad under his command.

It depends on national will power.

It won’t be easy, but that wall and the enforcement implied
goes a long way toward helping.

The scene in the movie “PATTON” where he shot at a German aircraft with a pocket pistol (looked like a Colt .380 or .32) always made me smile. From what I can find on the net, it probably didn’t really happen, but it seems like something he would do. The man had guts, that is for sure. I did basic training at Fort Knox (1969). Didn’t know his museum was there, or I would have checked it out then. If I find myself near there again, I will visit for sure.

His comments on communism/USSR at the end of ww2 were very interesting.

Some say he was assassinated because of them (by the kgb when he was in a hospital recovering from a car wreck).
