This decision is long overdue. President Trump is doing what he does best: improve the lives of the American people. Americans who care about their safety in California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas must be overjoyed. #Trump2020
Trump says drug cartels will be designated terrorist organizations
MexicoNewsDaily, November 27, 2019:
Story continues below advertisementThe United States will designate Mexican drug cartels as terrorist organizations, U.S. President Donald Trump said in an interview Tuesday, triggering a request by Mexico for high-level bilateral talks.
“They will be designated . . . I have been working on that for the last 90 days” Trump told political commentator Bill O’Reilly.
“We’re losing 100,000 people a year to . . .what’s coming through Mexico,” Trump said, referring to narcotics trafficking. “They [the cartels] have unlimited money . . . it’s drug money and human trafficking money . . .
Trump’s remarks prompted a swift response from the Secretariat of Foreign Affairs (SRE).
“The foreign secretary [Marcelo Ebrard] will establish contact with his counterpart, Michael R. Pompeo, in order to discuss this very important issue for the bilateral agenda,” the SRE said in a statement.
“In accordance with the good relations . . . between both countries, the Mexican government will seek a high-level meeting as soon as possible to present Mexico’s position and understand the point of view of United States authorities.”
Ebrard said Tuesday that he believed designating cartels as terrorists was unnecessary and stressed that Mexico will not allow a United States intervention in Mexico, an assertion repeated by President López Obrador on Wednesday.

Mexico doesn’t do anything about the cartels. Maybe it can’t, maybe it won’t. Build that fence and faster. Then keep the cartel in Mexico and let Mexico eat itself up from the inside.
Once that happens watch Mexico beg the US to help and save its behind. By then it will be too late. Who knows, maybe the cartels will buy a few F16s and go after their own government. They can easily afford it.

Mexico will never do anything. The nation was founded by conquistadors and and has lived that way always. Until the people of Mexico begin to embrace what the Founders of the USA believed nothing will change. Mexico, 10th largest economy in the world, last time I checked, but collects taxes at the level of Haiti?

Sure this is ok but wake me up when Trump declares war on Islam that’s the greatest threat to this planet. As for the drug cartels it was already tried and failed under Bush and other admins.
I guess the US isn’t as affected by Islamic fascists as they are in Europe and Canada which is why Trump hasn’t made it a priority, plus he’s buddies with the Saudis and gulf oil sheikhs.
The largest, most deadly criminal organization is Islam by far. The drug cartels are nothing more than a bunch of roaches that can easily be eliminated if the will was there. Meanwhile, there are millions of Muslims in western nations primed for war and conquest, like they are in India, China and other many other nations.
This will takes a global effort to eliminate, not to mention they have or are getting nukes (Pakistan, Iran, Turkey, Saudi Arabia), something the cartels do not possess. Come on Trump, the Dems will never confront Islam, we need strong Republicans to step up and do the right thing.

They don’t need lobbyists, either. They have a huge number of “customers” in the good ole’ USA who demand drug cartel products – and not for health and wellness.

Bush should have had the answer. After all, it was on his watch that CAIR was designated an un-indicted co-conspirator to terrorism. As you know, nothing happened.

“Ebrard said Tuesday that he believed designating cartels as terrorists was unnecessary?”
Sounds like Ebrard is getting paid off from the cartels. These cartels are on a level with Isis terrorists. The only difference is nationality. I hope Trump sends in our special operators to take these murdering terrorists out and the corrupt Mexican government be damned. They have had decades to handle the problem, and instead chose to allow themselves to be bought off and this has caused uncountable deaths in Mexico and the USA.
This is a common sense move By Trump since America is directly affected by the Mexican governments inaction on these cartels.

This decision by Trump is why his political opponents hate him so much, he thinks and acts not like one of them but a businessman, a father and a brassed off citizen.
No political career wallah would dare to be so direct, but being that way is what a voting public is so desperately crying out for in America as well as the UK. The time of compromise, cut and fit, has had its day, that message has been done to death right across the western world and it’s about time too.
Please God we in UK get a leader who believes in the same message when it comes to smashing down the hated EU to reclaim our rights.

Poppey, well said; the UK deserves a leader who believes in the same message. The taking down of the autocratic EU is a must. I hope you and yours are well. Chris, also, sends her best. She was on the phone to her brother and sister-in-law after the terror attack yesterday. I hope, too, all is well at your end; as it ain’t over by a long-shot. Take care.

Trump pays surprise visit to Afghanistan
Nov 28, 2019 @ 21:40
“President Donald Trump arrived unannounced in Afghanistan on Thursday. He sat down with the troops for Thanksgiving dinner at Bagram Air Base near Kabul. Trump secretly departed Florida in the dark of night for his maximum-security trip. He was accompanied by Gen. Mark Milley, Chairman of the US Chiefs of Staff. In a long speech, he disclosed the restart of another round of US peace talks with Taliban. The soldiers cheered when the president touted the death of ISIS chief Baghdadi. There are currently 13,000 American troops in Afghanistan. More than 2,200 US troops were killed in America’s longest-running war since 2001.”

Okay, a great move President Trump; now, let’s get to the nitty-gritty, the likes of CAIR, the Muslim Brotherhood, Sarsour; oh yes, not to overlook the not-so Democratic Party. The latter of which aligns itself with the enemies of America, because, they, too, are enemies of the state.
