David McCormick, the GOP nominee for Senate in Pennsylvania, voiced his support for using the U.S. military to unilaterally strike targets deep inside Mexico as part of the war on drugs, claiming that it would help limit the transport of fentanyl.
“I’m not saying we’re going to send the 82nd Airborne Division to do a jump into Mexico,” McCormick, an army veteran and ex-hedge fund CEO, told the Associated Press. “What I’m saying is the combination of special operations and drones, I think, could eradicate the manufacturing facilities, kill the distribution networks and do a real dent in what is a terrorist activity.”
