If that leader is soft on asylum claims and they allow tens of millions of people to show up at our border as they did in the last administration, um,

Keeping in mind that several of these cartels have business models that are primarily based on asylum claimants, right, and on illegal immigration.

They were making as much or more, like various factions of the Gulf Cartel and Los Zetas was making as much or more from the people showing up at our border claiming asylum than they were making from drugs.

So if we do things in this country that increase the pull factors and increase the economic engines for various Mexican cartels, then we're going to be in trouble.

But if we continue to say in the best case scenario, right, say that we have J.D.

Vance and he continues with the Trump policies and the Trump focus on Mexican cartels, I think that we have a very good shot

at at mexico becoming a better place which is very important for us because it affects us directly right you got to keep in mind you know like americans didn't want fentanyl and then el mincho began to manufacture fentanyl right el mincho began to manufacture fentanyl and then the desire for for more of it right it was it was a push issue not a not a demand issue um

there's obviously that's a complicated issue but but uh it was more of a push and not not so much a demand that caused the supply it was the supply that pushed the demand and uh when it came to that so it really just depends on what we do but i i can tell you this if mexico were going to become a better place if our southern neighbor was going to get healthier this is exactly what was required for that to happen

So this isn't the armistice, this isn't the end of the war.

This isn't, you know, Germany surrendering, but this is definitely, yesterday was definitely D-Day, right?

And we definitely took land and we definitely established a beach hut.

And so I am very hopeful.

I think this shows that the current Mexican president is actually trying to work with the U.S.

No, I don't think she would have if it weren't for Trump's pressure.

But regardless of that, this shows a serious step in the right direction.

I would not allow my children to go to Mexico right now.

I would not allow my children to go to even the safe areas like Cancun or Puerto Vallarta because they're obviously not safe.

But keep in mind, those are economic engines for cartels.

As they fight each other, they're going to try to hurt each other's economic engines.
