And so I sent a mass email to thousands of people saying, hey, this is what's happening.
This is what I'm trying to prevent, which is getting into this thing further or then going to Mexico and Colombia and so forth.
But no, people are confused and increasingly getting angry about this whole thing.
I've seen this or I've heard this in conversations with Venezuelans who are in the United States that have family members that are still in Caracas, for example, and then certainly like in the conversations about what he may do in Mexico, they're worried for their family members.
They're worried about the danger that it may present to their family members.
Let's just take Mexico, for example.
He's talked about cartel strikes, well, how about we'll take on the cartels.
But it's not just that.
If you do that, it's likely that the cartels are also going to take action either against Americans, but I think more likely against Mexican politicians, against other Mexican citizens, that they're going to make life hell for others in Mexico.
So it'll create a kind of crisis.
you know, basically huge danger and disruption there.
And I think that's, that's also what people worry about is, uh, are my relatives, is my family going to be safe?
