Tensions between the U.S. and Mexico are rising as President-elect Donald Trump continues to reportedly consider the possibility of U.S. military action on Mexican soil to address cartel activity.
Trump has long hinted at attacking Mexico throughout the years. In fact, he even considered ordering missile strikes on drug labs in Mexico during his first term but was talked out of it by former Defense Secretary Mark Esper, according to Esper's 2022 memoir.
