#Mexico Is Caught Between the #Mafia [Trump] & the #Cartels
#Trump has demanded [threatened] President #ClaudiaSheinbaum confront the cartels.
The killing of “ #ElMencho” was a clear success for the Mexican authorities. The timing, however, was telling.
Trump has loudly & repeatedly demanded that Mexican ofcls dismantle the cartels that have amassed fortunes by sending drugs across the border. If they don’t, he threatened, the #US #military may do the job instead [invade].
