considering the threats of terrorism we face from Middle Eastern groups half a world away -- when Mexican based groups decide to respond. Border communities will face a deluge of car bombings, mass shootings, and various other revenge attacks.

And how will Mexican military forces respond to attacks on their soil? We can certainly win a war against Mexico, but at what cost in both blood and treasure? And think of the impact on regional and world commerce and trade, the damn cost of groceries that was such a big issue in November will skyrocket, and Joe Biden won't be around to blame.

What a shit storm, led by a pack of clueless and morally corrupt Trump appointees.
