Trump pardons drug trafficker Juan Orlando Hernandez

[Dr. Shades]

The mainstream media, just like you.

Given your statement:

Isn't the suggestion that his military attacks are for a reason other than to prevent drugs (from entering the country) dangerously close to a conspiracy theory?

and apparent trust in the mainstream media, please explain yourself. Thanks!

Isn't the mainstream media agreeing with the President's take?

Fox is pretty much the mainstream media these days, so your statement seems accurate.

Cool. Anyway.

Do you believe his military attacks are to prevent drugs from reaching America?

Several posters have already pointed out that fentanyl, the drug that Trump has said repeatedly is what he is trying to defend the US from when he orders these boats and their occupants to be destroyed, is neither produced in Venezuela nor transported to the US from Venezuela. Most fentanyl is smuggled over the border from Mexico by US citizens.

Yes, I’m aware of your post, which was greatly appreciated and insightful. I’m curious about Shades’ opinion since he came at the discussion from a different angle.

I see - and I too would like to find out how Shades sees Trump's 'sink the boats' policy, especially after it has been made crystal clear on this thread that Trump's claim that his actions are intended to 'stop the fetanyl' is (surprise!) not based on fact.
