Trying To Out Stupid Each Other

It seems that the GOP candidates spend a bunch of time trying to out stupid each other….one of the best moronic statements cam from GOP candidate Nikki Haley…..

Ron DeSantis wants suspected drug smugglers at the US-Mexico border to be shot dead. Nikki Haley promises to send special forces into Mexico. Vivek Ramaswamy has accused Mexico’s leader of treating drug cartels as his “sugar daddy” and says that if he is elected president, “there will be a new daddy in town.” Donald Trump, who has long shaped his Republican rhetoric on the border, has often blamed Mexico for problems in the US and promises new uses of military force and covert action if he returns to the White House. Many of the GOP presidential candidates say they would carry out potential acts of war against Mexico in response to the trafficking of fentanyl and other synthetic opioids, the AP reports.

I have hear other GOPers mouth this same type of stupidity.

I know it is a lot to ask but think about this for a split moment.

Sen. Graham also has this same idea….only he mouthed the stupidity first.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Monday said he was prepared to introduce legislation to “set the stage” for U.S. military force in Mexico, saying it was time to “get tough” on the neighboring country after four Americans were kidnapped by armed men this week.

Graham told Fox News host Jesse Watters that he would follow the advice of former President Trump on Mexico policy.

“I would put Mexico on notice,” Graham said. “If you continue to give safe haven to drug dealers, then you are an enemy of the United States.”

Graham added he would “introduce legislation to make certain Mexican drug cartels foreign terrorist organizations under U.S. law and set the stage to use military force if necessary.”

“I would tell the Mexican government if you don’t clean up your act, we’re going to clean it up for you,” the senator said.

If the US sends Army troops into Mexico to hunt down drug dealers and cartel….is that similar, in principle, to Russia sending troops into Ukraine to hunt down Nazis?

I wrote ‘in principle’ we are not dealing with specifics.

Do we really want to invade our neighbor to the South?

Is that a prudent decision on any level?

  1. A lot of the things these candidates are saying should flat out terrify people. The other day Trump basically said shoplifters should be shot dead on sight.

    They’re desperate to try to stand out from the rest of the crowd so at the moment it’s like each of them is trying to appear to be more extreme than the others. They are playing to a specific audience, and that audience is not very well informed and is not very thoughtful.

  2. They must think Mexico is an easy target. Wait until the body bags start coming home, then their plans won’t sound so good.
    Best wishes, Pete.

      1. the idea of conquest always carries a sexual connotation with it. Study your psychology 101 and find out.
