31. Odd move by MX given that DT suggested the US should deploy a similar "peace force" to MX border

I am reminded again what a toad DT is but MX deciding against sanctions is just odd.


Trump also suggested the U.S. should deploy a similar "peace force" to the U.S.-Mexico border.

"We could use that on our southern border. That’s the strongest peace force I’ve ever seen. There were more army tanks than I’ve ever seen. They’re going to keep peace, all right," he said.
