Mexico Goes Full Venezuela, Elects Socialist Prez Andrés Manuel López Obrador In Landslide

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

The necessity of the Wall jumps 2 quanta in importance.

I will predict with zero equivocation, and I am a firm believer than nobody can predict the future: If we do not build the wall, in 5 years we will be the sorriest sons of bitches in the known universe.

This time, socialism will be different . . . because . . . unicorns and Skittles?

What wealth and resources, pray tell, are they going to share?

There are finite supplies there of frijoles, tortillas, volcanoes, tequila, Mexico City restaurants that serve insects, naval personnel, and a complete absence of military fighter jets, corruption-free politicians, and major league baseball.

Some might say gasoline, but they'd have to improve their refining techniques to eliminate the bugs, slush, and gunk from their products.

And I won't even get into sharing STDs, dead drug cartel targets, and adequate construction codes and engineering.

Again, what do they have to share?

It is an open secrete that the drug cartels were backing the guy.

[BlackAdderess]

He hired Rudy Giuliani and appears to have been a successful mayor of Mexico City. It may be that he is just good at playing the game of saying what is expected of him and behaving pragmatically to get things done. Watching Castro before, he used language in more of an image affirming way that had nothing to do with anything factual. Two can play at that game, and under those rules, this guy might be OK. We will have to see and judge him by his actions, not his words.

The government is not in control of the country right now. Let’s see if this man can gain control of his country. That alone would be quite an accomplishment.

Mexico is run by the Cartels. There isn’t a Mexican federal official that isn’t corrupt or eventually assassinated for not being ...

I don’t see much change coming. Other than some politicians bank account.

[Forward the Light Brigade]

New President will not last long—assassination is my bet. Then Mexico will blow up in Civil War. Cartels will be crushed along with the corrupt ruling families. No wonder the Mexicans want Socialism—They link “democracy” with corruption, murder,cartels, gangs and death. Look to see 1/4 of the whole Mexican population fleeing to the USA—first will be doctors, lawyers and newspapermen, then peons forced off the land by war. Sadly many Cartels will flee here as well. We better be ready to step in and bring peace to Mexico. Sad day for Mexico.

No borders?
Mexico closes their southern border!

[aquila48]

Better speed up the building of that wall!

[Bubba Gump Shrimp]

awesome. Since socialism is so great, and everyone comes here for socialized subsidies, maybe they will stay in that socialized utopia. Hell, maybe the libs will start migrating to the socialized utopia.

[cgbg]

Companies need to get out their checkbooks—socialists take bribes, ya know!

[Ann Archy]

Never ends well, Mexico.

[con-surf-ative]

Nailed it! He will be corrupted by the opportunity to enrich himself just like all his predecessors, and the Mexican man on the street will see no change.

130 political assassinations of 10 months and we’re supposed to believe that the country will become clean?

[greeneyes]

That’s what I was thinking too - mass inundation at the border. A failed country - Syria may be the only country with more deaths/violence - it’s already like a civil war.

Sure doesn’t bode well for USA security. We need that wall yesterday.
