A House Republican issued a stunning threat to the president of Mexico on Monday, telling her that she has “two weeks” to clean up the northern border with the United States or else the Trump administration would consider striking her country. President Donald Trump said on Monday that he is “open” to striking inside Mexico to stop the flow of drugs coming into the country, The Hill reported. That is the second country Trump has threatened to strike as part of his expanding international drug trade offensive. Rep. Carloz Giménez (R-FL) discussed the president’s comments on a new broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead” with Jake Tapper, where he doubled down on the president’s threat. “Her people have finally woken up to the fact that she may be involved in this, too,” Gimenez said of Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo. “Look, the cartels that control the northern part of Mexico not only have been shipping this poison and facilitating the shipment of this poison into the United States, but also help with the mass migration of millions of people into the United States. Her government is no friend of the United States,” he continued. “And yes, her hands are dirty too when it comes to the killing of American citizens. And so I would call her and say, ‘Hey, you got two weeks, ma’am, to clean up your act on the northern border or else, you know, I’ve got to protect my citizens.’ And again, President Trump has to protect the American citizens because that’s his number one duty.”.
