    Iran is currently holding a massive funeral for the late Ayatollah who
    was killed in the opening moments of the current war. During the course
    of this funeral, which is now in its third day and counting, the regime
    has announced that it has worked out an arrangement with Mexican drug
    cartels to kill Trump.

    Just how idiotic do you have to be to make this kind of declaration
    about someone you are, at least in theory, negotiating with, especially
    when that someone is arguably the most powerful person in the world
    given the military capabilities he commands?

    I have no doubt that this news will delight many Democrats and a
    considerable number of foreign Trump haters who will hope for its rapid execution. I hope they're not holding their breaths though.

    The moment any cartel makes an attempt to kill a U.S. president is the moment that cartel is annihilated. Those guys don't comprehend that they only
    continue to exist because our politicians are soft and insist on diplomatic niceties like not encroaching on Mexico's sovereign territory. But the instant a cartel actually attempts to assassinate a president, that "play nice" shit goes out the window and all bets are off.

    I certainly don't want to give credence to this threat, which I why I
    said Trump-haters shouldn't hold their breaths. The Iranians have proven
    to be almost entirely delusional in their past threats, much like Saddam Hussein's "Mother of all battles" remark back in the day. The Iranians
    largely live in a fantasy world. That's why they've had to import
    thousands of foreigners from Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan etc. to build
    crowds of mourners for the current funeral; if they depended on only
    Iranian nationals, they'd find the "crowds" embarrassingly small.

    But they do have some operatives outside of Iran and its not
    inconceivable that they've had contacts with the cartels. Mind you, I'm
    not sure what each might give the other in any quid pro quo. I know the cartels are powerful within Mexico and that they certainly have
    tentacles in the USA but are any of the cartel bosses crazy enough to
    try to take out Trump? I truly don't know. I would hope they were
    rational enough to realize how catastrophic that would be for them but
    who can say? I sort of hope the cartels try - AND FAIL!!! - just so that
    they get the comeuppance they deserve.

    Yeah, just look at the movie SICARIO to see just how it can go when a
    cartel pushes America too far.

    This is quite a development. I wonder why none of the major news
    outlets seem aware of it...
