It's not as if the US military have a great track record as world police and have a long history of backing drug lords and warlords when doing so.
The governors calling for the action are from the States cartels get the majority of their weapons from - often aided by US corruption and paid for with 100s billions in profits from Americans buying drugs from the cartels. Maybe they should be cleaning their own back yard before invading others.
Weak... what is this some kind of double speak?
USA bad boohoo
We should sanction them with the complete loss of our tourist trade and all of their travel here, until things radically improve. That itself will be enough impetus for them to go after those cartels themselves.
Don't be so quick to believe these "drug busts". They could be controlled opposition reports to take eyes off the smuggling routes that never get "busted" ☠️

Screw training people and all that jazz, just drop a butt ton of weapons off in every single town and village so the people can stand up against the cartels on their own.

There would have to be advisors..but NOT cia, or dea…We have a whole neato mosquito unit that's motto is "To Liberate The Opressed", its what they do..They would be able to arrange what You speak of. And they're quiet. Great linguists and above all Humanitarians…They could do the job virtually un seen…well, not virtually, actually.
Imagine if You had a 1000 person contingent with hearts like "Little Stone Hands" (my favorite boxer) Cartels would be done overnight. Es necesario para tienes "Ko ra thone" verdad a combatir groupos malos..?no?

While I agree completely with stay the heck out of Mexico, the problem is, we have been dumb enough to let them get a nice foothold here in the US, owning business and such, they are laundering money through.
We at least need to kill that snake.
But, they are donating to politicians here, so....
