Declaration of war on drug lords..

[AKKuya]

I support a Congressional Declaration of War on the Cartels.

How would other sovereign nations react to American forces invading their countries to wipe out the cartels?

A destabilizing situation would occur.  Should Congress also be ready to take possession of these countries as new U.S. territories for eventual statehood?

The United Mexican States has 31 individual states.  Central American countries, South American countries, and Caribbean countries would add a lot of new stars to the flag.

Europe, Asia, and Africa would be in uproar over American expansion.  They would be thinking their next.

2 options.  1) Leave it alone.   2) Go all the way, no holds barred.

Immigration would eventually be nullified with 50 more states to the union.

A scenario that could happen.

Attempting to wipe out cartels would be about as successful as Vietnam was.

Possibly.

How about a Congressional Declaration of War?

Was this a problem for you as well?

I don't know enough about that case to comment.  I'm generally not a fan of the gov killing American citizens without due process unless they are presenting a clear and immediate threat to the safety of Americans.  But every incident like that should always go through Congressional review.  There should be some splainin.  It is Congress' JOB to check an Executive trying to push his bounds. 


You guys do realize the more imperial powers you try to lay on your guy, gets handed to the other side later, right?  Be careful what you wish for.
 
I think ALL presidents should have way less power, not more.

So we hand things over to career politicians?  I hear ya, but in today's political climate, I'd rather trust this president than most of those career politicians (who we ALL squeak about) who illegally tried to oust a presidential candidate, and later the POTUS.  Also, how much money has Trump lost since '20 compared to the money made by career politicians in DC?  If this was a business decision by Trump to run for president, it was a terrible one.  Hard to overlook those facts, especially if you agree with most of his policies and his vision for America.

That is because the congress as a whole has gave up a bunch of it's power so they can go... dont look at us we didnt do it. Thats why you have these alphabet agencies basically writing law.

Well, maybe you’re all not useless. We seem to circle the group back every few pages or so. It’s like turning a CV.

You just described all the exact reasons why none of what you described will ever happen.

Just like here in America, other countries have laws and their laws matter.

No matter what.

There is merit here.

Any of you remember the National Lampoon issue where, theoretically, the sniper missed JFK and hit Jackie, instead?  They had a time line, which in 1972 included the Christmas Bombing of Belfast.

Warlord of Your Choice is fine, so long as you get your choice.

Exactly and  that is a problem.

The Congress should start reclaiming it share of the power balance.  That is what the founders intended.  They weren't meant to be the presidents rubber stamp.

Mr. Smith left Washington long ago and they ain't ever letting him go back. It's a fight to the finish now.

Also, how much money has Trump lost since '20 compared to the money made by career politicians in DC?  If this was a business decision by Trump to run for president, it was a terrible one.   

Changpeng Zhao was pardoned yesterday. You may wish to do some research into how much money the Trump family has made through that Crypto business.

Just as a source, you will notice that Binance has over $2 Billion invested in World Liberty Financial.

As they say, follow the money.

I don't know the future.  I do know those in power will find ways to remain in power and try to increase their power. 

Absolute power corrupts absolutely.  I just know human nature.  Most humans are decent people.  It's the small percentage of those in power that make life difficult for the rest.

Well in a cpl weeks and the pain sets in, just remember, the people who brought this to us were warned 1000 times. Habitual liars really tell the truth.

This is how cults work. Left field is home. Denial is their heroine.

This is just a deflection from the raping of America. Thats all it is. Stay focused on killing random people and militarized cities, all deflections

He would fire nukes to deflect from his raping you and things like Epstein

The object of deflection is to keep them off balanced and not thinking 5 minutes ahead,... it's always right now, while the money goes out the back door.

And yes, IF we ever get our country back, their biggest mistake is the notion they will have the last word.

They only get away with it if we all die before anything was done. What are the odds?

Sorry yall had your chance and completely embarrassed America infront of the entire world, who also tried persecuting their political opponents then tried killing them, then ran a lady who didnt even get primary votes, and you think that no experience lady would have been able to solve peace in the middle east or solve the Ukraine/russia war? Solve pakaistan and India, or talk trade deals? Talk about delusional. The tax cuts would have expired. Our people are taking down gangs and rescuing children all over the country. The market is soaring, gold and silver finally getting their due. This is a far far better off country and world than last year.
Yall keep saying " in 2 more weeks its all gonna crash, youll see"... sounds very similar to the global warming "in 10 more years". But ironically, things all are getting better, massive investment is pouring into America. A president who donates his presidential salary. Like I just dont get it with these liberals who think electing a legit shadow government with career insiders is going to bring us a better country, per last 4 years, we see what a complete unorganized and mismanaged fiasco those clowns are and have been for decades. Im so glad they got sat the F down and it needs to continue for a while until these people learn we aren't going to tolerate their sell out of Americans anymore.
