Half of the Mexican government is likely backed by the cartel, and their new woke female president isn’t likely to go along with it either.

This would also have the added benefit of incentivizing so many Mexican, both illegal and legal to wanting to move back voluntarily. Especially if the Mexican government gets the Trump treatment to encourage their tourism and agricultural economies. Mexico could likely become a 1st world country.
Easy , Trump threatens to cancel Taco Tuesday and triple tariffs on piñatas. 5D. Check mate, amigos...
