So, it seems that Trump is dead serious about going after the cartel in Venezuela and Columbia.

Of course, he's doing it in a reckless manner, but here are my thoughts: We always assumed that the top dogs (kingpins) in the cartel business never get touched. It's always the lower and middle levels that get arrested. And the assumption was that they might even be Americans.

But, since Trump is going headstrong chasing a gale storm of drug cartel stereotypes, blowing up boats out of the water and calling the Columbian president a cartel drug lord, can we assume that the kingpins are not part of the 1% in the US?

1. What's his real motive? He does not care about drug abuse, drug sales.

He and Don Jr have been long time drug addicts.
And Trump doesn't care if regular people die from overdoses or become addicted.

3. That is a good question.

What is his motive?

Is it possible that he's removing the competition for someone?

4. Yes in exchange for a piece of the illegal drug trade.

Putin has become the richest man in the world by being involved in the drug and sex trades.
As well as stealing most of Russia's oil profits.

5. I'm sure that it has nothing to do with the

disputes between Venezuela and Guyana over oil.

9. I'm sure it has nothing to do with Venezuela having the largest oil reserves in the world.

Estimated at 303 billion barrels of heavy crude.

2. Money to Argentina, Boatskrieg in Venezuela

Maybe a Granada-level invasion for the elections? Jingoism is alive and well.

6. Well he can't have Canada or Greenland. He will

take a country in SA.

7. He is dead serious about finding and Epstein detraction that lasts longer than 15 minutes.

8. Why can't he just be dead, seriously.
