Members of Donald Trump's transition team are reportedly discussing "how much to invade Mexico" as the incoming administration is planning on tackling drug cartels head on.
The report, published on Wednesday by Rolling Stone, attributes the quote to a senior Trump transition member. Another source close to the president-elect is defining the initiative as a "soft invasion" of Mexico, saying that American special forces would be sent covertly into the country to assassinate top cartel leaders. Trump has apparently warmed to such plans over the course of the year.
