| Mexican Senate Threatens to Stop Helping U.S. Against Drug Cartels If Trump Deploys Troops to Border |
| 2018-04-07 |
| [Breitbart] The Mexican Senate passed a resolution seeking an end to bilateral cooperation with the U.S. against drug cartels and immigration problems after President Trump ordered National Guard troops to the border. The resolution was passed in a unanimous fashion and sent to the White House, Members of the U.S. Congress, and Mexico’s Foreign Relations Officer, El Universal reported. "Despite everything that is at stake in the relationship between our two countries, the way in which President Donald Trump has behaved is, for the Mexican people, unacceptable and intolerable," El Universal quoted from the document. The resolution demands that President Trump respect the people of Mexico, and notes the Senate "condemns the unfounded and offensive expressions about Mexico and Mexicans and the treatment that is needed for a relationship between neighboring countries, partners, and allies." Other portions of the resolution reject efforts to "militarize the border with Mexico" and considered the measure offensive. In the third portion of the resolution, the Senate calls for Mexico to stop any binational cooperation with the U.S. in dealing with immigration matters and fighting transnational organized crime (cartels) until Trump "acts with civility and respect." |

| #10 When we got around to making the Apache feel unwelcome on their visits from Mexico in the late 19th Century, they decided to carry out their tourism locally which finally got the response from Mexico City that the Americans had clamored for decades. I suspect the cartel will look local to expand even further their power and influence if and when the border is closed down. |

| #4 #3 Trump only needs to shut down the border for a couple days to remind Messico who's driving the bus Posted by: Frank G 2018-04-07 09:58 THIS, though I would add to that if we close the border, that means no flights to or from Mexico, US flag ships will not be permitted to call there, and money transfers stop.

| #1 American troops along the border has the potential for disrupting the flow of illegal narcotics and people smuggling which would likely impact their bottom line. There is certainly no threat of an invasion. |
