This is what I fucking said Trudeau should do.

The majority of illegal immigrants comes over legally through ports of entry and just out stay their visas. Mexico is laughing as the pretend to send 10,000 troops to boarder to watch dirt.

April 12, 2021:

According to White House press secretary Jen Psaki, Mexico will maintain a deployment of about 10,000 troops...

Mexico announced in March that it was deploying National Guard members and immigration agents to its southern border, and it has maintained more personnel at its southern border since Trump threatened tariffs on Mexican imports in 2019.

Unless someone can find a source that states that Mexico ever withdrew their 10k troops during the last 3 years... yeah, they already had 10k troops on their southern border, they've... just been redeployed to their northern border.

As is tradition, your mistake is in assuming he actually wants to help anyone

Almost nothing of the US fentanyl gets in through Mexico...

to watch dirt

Nah. Those people will have a lot to do stopping weapons smuggling into Mexico.

The weapons are purchased legally by Americans and simply driven over. Also through legal ports of entry. It's not this complicated process.

Where do you get yours from.

How do you figure? From my understanding China and other places make precursor ingredients which are then manufactured in the field in Latin America. Are you saying the vast majority is fentanyl manufactured in China and shipped directly to the US?

simply driven over

That's called smuggling.

Isn't this mostly just for show for his base anyway? "See! I'm doing what I said I'd do!"

Right but the previous commenter is saying adding 10k troops isn’t going to impact the existing ways those guns are smuggled into Mexico. They’d have to stop and search every car which I would require a lot more people at the border

Export guns, import people.

There has been lots of well published studies in the US last year. Well published enough to catch on the international press.

Most of their fentanyl seems to be smuggled out of their chemical and drug industries.

With 10,000 soldiers, they can search a lot more cars.

Trump never mentions anything that can make him look like he gave anything up. His fragile ego just doesn't allow that. He always has to come out as the winner and everyone else has to come out as the loser. And that's what he will call them.

Good for use as a talking point in the next round of nonsense that will start in a few weeks but impossible in practice. The US has been worshipping guns as a religion for 200 years and the Canada-US border has been perforated consistently by smugglers that whole time.

Or you know America could ban the production of new guns and ammunition; and begin destroying guns already in circulation. That's the real answer to America's and central/south America gun problem. It's not like drugs where it's obvious when they are smuggled in large quantities. Guns can be disassembled and parts hidden within the maze of parts that is modern vehicles. Search every vehicle? As if a military personnel will be able to look at a engine bay and be able to tell if one piece of metal is a car part or gun part. But a brick of Fentanyl is kinda easier to tell if its supposed to be their. Also, since America has been a nation we have been treating central and South America as our personal trash can, war zone, political toy, and financial sow to be milked dry. A couple thousand dollars and a wink will get you past any check point into Mexico. Their military just as much as the police know the problem won't be solved at the boarder. You could find thousands of guns by searching every vehicle and it wouldn't make a dint; smugglers will just evolve. or you could prevent millions from every being made or transferred hands at the source. Or you know ending the war on drugs would defunct the cartels over night. The problem isn't the boarder!!! The problem is decades of poor policy and leadership in America.
