Anchors Look On Helplessly As Trump’s Monologue Derails The Entire Broadcast

President Donald Trump recently made alarming statements about addressing drug cartel members and alleged traffickers, asserting he would “just kill” them without requiring due process or a formal war declaration from Congress. This astonishing pronouncement occurred during a Thursday press briefing, where he inaccurately claimed his administration had curtailed drug imports by sea to less than five percent compared to prior levels. A reporter challenged him, asking why he wouldn't seek a formal declaration of war if serious actions were to be taken. Trump’s response shocked many present: “I think we’re just going to kill people that are bringing drugs into our country.” Following his remarks, reactions on social media were swift, with individuals expressing incredulity and concern over his comments. Critics pointed out the troubling nature of his statements about engaging in extrajudicial actions while dismissing inquiries into military operations concerning alleged drug vessels. Trump has stated his focus is now on land-based drug entry and hinted at briefings with Congress regarding military action against cartels.
