Rising GOP support for the U.S. taking unilateral military action in Mexico against drug cartels is increasingly rattling people on both sides of the border who worry talk of an attack is getting normalized.

Wednesday’s Republican presidential primary debate featured high-stakes policy disagreements on a range of issues from abortion to the environment — but found near-unanimous consensus on the idea of using American military force to fight drug smuggling and migration.

    The only policy Republicans have is “kill people different than me”, there is literally nothing else.

      They have other policies, like forcing 13 year old rape victims to give birth and non-lethal discrimination.

      I wish more people understood that right-wingers, whether they’re U.S. Republicans or anything else are in it for power and nothing else. Money, enslaving or killing people in the “out-groups”, tolerance of rape and CSA, etc are the “benefits” they believe they deserve for being “superior”.
