Full Episode
So we've heard a lot recently about Donald Trump starting a trade war with our allies, but that may be the least of our worries. We are now hearing reports that Trump is thinking of starting an actual war with Mexico. You heard that right. Donald Trump is debating a full-scale invasion of Mexico, allegedly to stop the flow of fentanyl.
This could include sending troops, firing missiles, you name it. And these reports are corroborated by some of Trump's closest advisors past and present, not to mention comments Trump has made himself. My name is Brett Mycelis with the Midas Touch Network. Make sure to hit subscribe and help us get to four million subscribers. This is the new reporting out of Rolling Stone headline.
Team Trump debates, quote, how much should we invade Mexico? In Trump's government in waiting, the only question is how massive the US assault on Mexican drug cartels should be. I want to emphasize here, that's not if we should invade Mexico, which would be crazy enough, but quote, how much should we invade Mexico? I'm going to get into this new reporting in just a minute.
But first, I want to remind you that this is not the first time Trump has suggested this. Here's a clip from 2023 of Republican James Comer saying that we should have our military on the border and troops in Mexico. He also said that Trump ordered the military to bomb meth labs in Mexico, but they refused to follow orders. And he said that that was a mistake. Watch this.
I believe we should have a military presence at the very least on the southern border, if not across the border. One of the things we learned post-Trump presidency is that he had ordered a bombing of a couple of fentanyl labs, crystal meth labs in Mexico just across the border. And for whatever reason, the military didn't do it. I think that was a mistake.
In 2023, Trump ally Republican Lindsey Graham said he couldn't think of a better use of our military than to bomb Mexico. Watch this.
They're at war with you. You need to be at war with them. I can't think of a better use of our military than to blow up labs in Mexico, killing young Americans.
And if you remember, back in 2022, there was a whole lot of reporting out there saying that Trump frequently asked about bombing Mexico while he was president. There was this piece about reporter Maggie Haberman's book that said, quote, Trump weighed bombing drug labs in Mexico after he mistook advisor, new book shows.
Then there was Trump's former Secretary of Defense, Mark Esper, who came out with a book called A Sacred Oath. And in that book, he also mentioned that Trump spoke about attacking Mexico. Per Esper, Trump wanted to bomb Mexico and then lie about it.
