Will The United States Invade Mexico?

Donald Trump is proving time and again to foreign leaders that counting on friendly relations is senseless.

He will treat them like adversaries if there is immediate advantage to doing so. Now Mexico joins the list.

Trump has long had the idea of pursuing drug dealers into Mexico.
