Trump has now threatened to invade…….Mexico. Yes. Mexico our neighbor to the south. Our ally. Home of Corona and tacos and Mariachi bands and Cancun and many wonderful other things and people. Donald Trump has threatened to invade them. Two weeks into his Presidency. Think about that.
Here are the details:
"I don't need the Mexicans. I don't need Mexico," Trump reportedly told the Mexican president. "We are going to build the wall and you all are going to pay for it, like it or not."
Trump "even suggested to [Peña Nieto] that if they are incapable of combatting [narco trafficking] he may have to send troops to assume this task," she said.
The US president "said he would not permit the drugs coming from Mexico to continue massacring our cities," Estevez added. She said Trump went so far as to say, "I really didn't want to go to Mexico last August," referring to Trump's visit to the Mexican capital last year.

Seriously, we are only two weeks in here. He’s only going to get more nuts. There is no way, no way at all, he will go 4 years and not get us into all kinds of crazy foreign affairs. He will likely drive us into a state of serious damage if not all out annihilation of the entire world.
UPDATE: Okay, I was unaware both Mexico and the White House had denied this. But the AP says they have a partial transcript of the call. And in that, Trump definitely used “bad hombres” and threatened to take care of drug traffickers if Mexico couldn't. We should perhaps be cautious with this story, but I don’t see it as entirely debunked despite the denials. There could be a lot of reasons for that. See additional info here:
