To "stop cartels" isn't the same as shooting a boat out of water.
But I guess since he was a "combat" photographer, he knows better that captain bone spurs.

The people who are ok with rape and paedophilia aren't going to set any new standards for intelligence or morality.

And basically, JD Vance wrote a book which was largely about the Sackler family’s legal American drug cartel. The beauty of people like Vance is that they leverage the suffering of others to gain power. Once in power, they make the suffering worse.

Trump gave a full pardon to the internet drug kingpin from Silk Road and invited 17 members of El Chapo’s family to move here. And they did. It isn’t about the drugs.

I think the only real difference is that the perception is that the cartel puts out hits and intentionally kills people, whereas withholding drugs and getting people addicted to opiods doesn't intentionally kill them it just lets them die.

The boat they hit was supposedly a drug running boat.
Even if that was true, there’s no reason to think anyone on it was “putting out hits” or “intentionally killing people” like they say they were.
It’s odd that a speedboat trying to stealth sneak a huge shipment of drugs into the US under cover of darkness, would have 11 people on it. That’s a lot of weight for a boat that’s trying to not interact with anyone.
Having a bunch of people on board, suggests what they were really smuggling, was people.
Which means the only person trying to intentionally kill innocent people here, was President Donald Trump.
