#1 We should invade Mexico and after they are defeated, force them to take Southern California off our hands.

#2 If we were to smash the cartels and establish an American protectorate over all regions north of the D.F. it would be a boon for Mexico and for us. Migrants would stay in the Protectorate zone. Employment would increase there. Both nations' GDP growth would be increased.

Nationalistic Mexicanos and the shitty Mexican elite could continue to stew in their corruption and still have their villas and could still hang out at their favorite Pacific and Caribbean resorts; we'd be taking over politically the dry and barren lands that we've already transformed economically.

#3 Tell them to clean it up or we are sending in the Cav.

#4 Wait a minute, folks. This doesn't sound like a good idea to me. Chances are it'd be a costly guerrilla war with a lot more casualties that anybody would like and it'd drag on for years. Better to build the wall. We wouldn't need to declare war to just shoot anybody who tried to come over, under, around or through it.

#5 Negotiating strategy: "Fund and build the wall, ASAP, or we're going in. Your choice...
... Democrats"

Sun Tzu - something something don't make your opponent fight desperate.

Very disappointed you neokkkons haven't mentioned seizing oil assets.

#7 Let them have all the natural, mineral, agricultural wealth. Anything to stop the migrants. They're killing this country's schools, ruining our health care system, destroying public safety and public budgets, undermining rule of law.

Just do what we were told, back in the days of Perot and Gore debates, NAFTA would achieve but in fact caused the opposite: stop the f---ing invasion.

#8 Why not just defund them? Legalize drugs and tax remittances. Build the wall and let things sort themselves out.

#10 No blood for Sauza!


On a serious note, reports of cartels seizing agricultural areas, especially avocados.
