Republican Representative James Comer has suggested the U.S. should set up troops in Mexico following a kidnapping that resulted in the deaths of two Americans.
South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham announced he would be introducing legislation allowing the U.S. to use military force against Mexico in order to crack down on the cartels.
Comer agreed with Graham's plan, and while speaking on Fox said a military presence is important to protecting Americans.

Yep, it's official. The Republicans have learned fuck-all from Iraq. Except this time, the insurgent groups are already there and already powerful to a terrifying degree.
Case in point: the first attempt at capturing Ovidio Guzman bore an alarming resemblance to Hank's death from Breaking Bad
Except there was one key difference... In Breaking Bad, the shootout that ended with Hank dead only intensified the search for Walter White. When it came to the actual response from the Mexican government, they actually fucking released him. He was one of the most wanted criminals on the planet, and the nation's government decided that they couldn't go through with the arrest.
That's how fucking powerful the cartels are. It's virtually impossible for a normal army to defeat a sufficiently well-supported guerrilla force without resorting to genocide even at the best of times, but this just strikes me as Too Dumb to Live even by the GOP's standards. Especially since, unlike Iraq, Afghanistan, or any of the other Middle Eastern nations, Mexico is right next door.
Fuck, they're already complaining about how they consider people crossing the border peacefully as an invasion, and here they are working on a plan that will practically GUARANTEE a fuckton more Mexican refugees will try to cross the border.
