The idea America should invade Mexico has become increasingly mainstream among Trump administration officials and Republican lawmakers.
The article from Rolling Stone discusses former President Donald Trump's proposal to deploy U.S. special forces to Mexico to combat drug cartels, a plan he has been promoting as part of his 2024 presidential campaign. Trump has suggested that if re-elected, he would authorize military action against the cartels, likening them to terrorist organizations like ISIS. This idea has been met with criticism from Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador, who has called it an "irresponsible" and "offense" to Mexico's sovereignty. Despite the backlash, Trump's rhetoric has found support among some Republican lawmakers, with figures like Senator Lindsey Graham and Representative Dan Crenshaw backing legislation to label cartels as terrorist groups and potentially authorize military force. The article also highlights the complexities and potential diplomatic fallout of such an intervention, noting that previous U.S. administrations have considered similar actions but were deterred by the implications for U.S.-Mexico relations.
