Mexico’s president says ‘there will be no invasion … it’s absolutely off the table’ after news reports of order
Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum, has rejected the idea that the US might invade Mexico after news reports suggested Donald Trump had authorized the use of military force targeting drug cartels deemed terrorist organizations in Latin American countries.
“The United States is not going to come to Mexico with their military,” she said during a daily news conference on Friday. “We cooperate, we collaborate, but there will be no invasion. It’s off the table, absolutely off the table.”
The Mexican president said her government had been informed of the executive order but insisted that “it had nothing to do with the participation of any military or any institution on our territory. There is no risk that they will invade our territory.”
Mexico military is too weak and corrupt, they would loose 1 vs 1 against the US military. The US can easily annex some districts in northern Mexico to form a buffer zone against the Cartels.

Yeah that works right until China or Russia start arming the Mexican military. We’ve been supporting Ukraine for years. Russia or China would be more than happy to send whatever arms they can to help Mexico. And it’s amazing how effective an active invasion of your nation is with addressing military corruption.
nah, I suspect the us also has embedded its best secret services into Mexico to prevent that.
*lose
Can easily but should not.
It’s a stupid fucking idea.
Okay, now compare it to the idea of Canada as the 51st state next? Which will Trump act on first, or is this just talk about annexation?
That’s also a stupid idea. Don’t know what you were trying to accomplish by bringing that up.
Both are related in the deployment of military forces in other countries. So lets compare the stupidity of the idea, which is worse? Or both are equal in their stupidity? I guess since Canada has a smaller population concentrated only at the US border it would be less difficult than Mexico in a shooting war for the US. Since Trump is “commander in chief” of the armed force I guess he could order such invasions? Would the military follow the order because of the law and command hierarchy? asking for a friend
If he was gonna do it he would have already. This is BS drama trump is stirring up on an international scale to try and get us to stop talking about the Epstein files. RELEASE THE DAMN FILES.
You know what would be an even better distraction? Actually invading Mexico. You’re brushing off this threat and not taking it seriously just like the first election as if he can’t possibly be serious and no serious person would go along with it anyway. You can’t just sloganeer your way out of this. Hitler is telling us he wants to own the rest of Europe and murder all the Jews. The first of the concentration camps are already complete. He has already begun rounding up undesirables en masse, with effective legal impunity. What the fuck makes you so fucking certain he doesn’t want to invade France too?! Wake the fuck up.
The 1000 FBI agents are still redacting trumps name from the files, they need more time.
“HOW THE FUCK DID HE END UP IN THAT MANY PLACES!?!?”
I’m sure epstein kept saying how innocent trump was, that’s why he’s there so often.
- Yes, I would like a large cheese pizza, as large as trump is innocent.
Mexico has no military that could stop the US. Maybe sanctions…but it’s not like saying “no” ever stopped Mango Mussolini.
Don’t forget: one side’s soldiers present a far larger target area…
“betcha they won’t see me, Sarge”
Mmmmm, don’t be too sure.
Yeah, the US has the drones and the tanks and the planes. Remember how well that went in Afghanistan? Iraq, anyone?
They can invade the country and overrun it in seconds, I have no doubt about that. Then, though, the fun starts.
Mexicans, especially those in the cartels, have very creative ways to make people really really regret stepping in the wrong direction.
How many videos of US soldiers slowly being cut into pieces alive and then hung from a bridge, posted on TikTok, do you think it’ll take before his base starts getting a very big knot in their stomach?
Then what do you think cartel soldiers already in the US will do? How do you think the Latino community in the US will respond?
If the US invades México, it will destroy México, have no doubt about that.
It will also absolutely end Trump and the US.
Maybe Mexico should be in NATO now.
They have a whole lot of people who could pass as someone genuinely from the US underclass for long enough to get into a shopping mall or some legislatures with an automatic weapon.
And a border long enough that they can’t be efficiently stopped, especially as the front overtakes them. Look at Russia and Ukraine and a third of the Russian strategic airforce in flames.
Thank you, I know this is the cheeto creating distractions, but we (mexicans) would not stand a chance against the USA if they actually decided they wanted our territory.
Our militia is a joke in comparison and the narcos (you know, the ones with better equipment, information and controlling the goverment) would hide, they would not fight at all.
Also the goverment has been doing their best antagonising the citizens and taking our rights away so… It would be a hard pill to swallow for everyone and arming the people you’ve been harassing and abusing doesn’t sound like a great idea.If the US invades Mexico it’ll overrun it within a day, no doubt. However, look at Afghanistan, Iraq. Look at how the US got beat every time. Now remember what cartels do with their enemies and imagine how many soldiers hanging from bridges it would take for the US to call it quits. Remember how many cartel soldiers there already are in the US. What do you think the Latino community will do once the US army starts the eventual murder of innocent Mexican citizens…
The US invading México will end Mexico, it will also end the US
It’s a bad comparison because México isn’t all the way crossing an ocean, we are right here, keeping supplies and machines going would be extremely easier.
Cartels are NOT revolutionaries, they are opportunistic assholes, they attack and control places where nobody can fight back, they would be the first ones to flee/hide and would only come back after the conflict was over to try and keep their business going in one way or another.What do you think the Latino community will do once the US army starts the eventual murder of innocent Mexican citizens…
I see 2 options… people keep trying to fight back until either they kills us all or enslave everyone due to broken morale, or enough people betray us wishing to be one of them (I can see the militia and goverment being the first ones to betray all of us) and it’s over in no time.
The US invading México will end Mexico, it will also end the US
I have no idea what fantasy you have about México but that’s not it.
If the USA gets serious (like using anything remote like drones and missiles), it’s over for us, we have nothing; if it’s just posturing and they decide they want to toy with us by sending people to die and kill us slowly… then maybe, but again, they could end it in no time.
They have enough to hurt a lot.
And they should have a nice big defensive WALL 🤣
They have enough to hurt the American South.
The ‘good’ Texans need to be ready to leave. They’ve bitched and moaned about not being able to for so long. But if they don’t do it soon, one way or another they’ll lose the chance forever.
They need to get clear of the pigs living next door before the pigs or the Mexicans take up arms.
Trump doesn’t want to seize Mexico like wants to take Canada because Mexico is full of brown people.
okay but hear me out
israel doesn’t want to seize gaza because it’s full of brown people
and suddenly everything gets so much worse
mexican cartels are to the US as hamas is to israel - or at least that’s the narrative they’re pushing
The cartels are just becuase Trump doesn’t like them
ugh.
The Cartels are pure evil, they aren’t ‘resistance’ they’re thugs who murder whole families 3 generations down for not paying them bribes.
Wait, you think white people don’t want to take over the country full of brown people? How do you think Colonialism works?
And if you need a modern day equivalent, then just look at Gaza
That kind of colony is not financially viable since the 40s-50s. The US wants neocolonies like they have in South America or the Middle East, with a financially, not militarily beholden leadership.
Wasn’t this logic used at the conclusion of the Mexican-American war?
Canada is full of brown people too.
Canada is full of brown people…mostly those immigrated recently enough that their citizenship could be declared invalid because ‘reasons’ and forcibly deported back to their ancestral countries.
Oh I’m sure Trump plans to ‘fix’ that
Yeah. Usually one would worry about fascists invading countries with an ethnicity they don’t like for Lebensraum, but “fortunately” America has plenty of minorities on its own soil so the Holocaust can be implemented completely domestically.
He sure does want to kill us so it is a bit worrying.
This justification is straight out of Clear and Present Danger. Also, see Sicario. Big exception being, those anti-cartel operations were black jobs. Now we’re openly talking about it!
Time to defend freedom from Drug-Cartels in Mexico!
Variable, this is Knife…
That’s the movie that make me look up “actual” as a commo term!
So if the cartels are operating in Mexico and the United States, and Trump’s executive order doesn’t involve using the military on Mexican territory, I guess it must be to use the military on American territory?
This is what Project 2025 said wasn’t it?
And don’t forget all the bullshit claims that people with random tattoos were MS-13 members and sent to El Salvador. Now he’ll send the army against whatever tattoo he decides he doesn’t like next.
Yeah—now military deployments anywhere in America can be dismissed as part of anti-cartel actions, until they aren’t.
You mean day 1 then?
Your logic seems sound.
Once again, Thank You President Sheinbaum!!
