The reality is that Americans want Cocaine, which criminal organizations are happy to supply. The government does not approve of that trade, which it has long sought to suppress via interdiction and arrests. Because that approach, which Trump accurately describes as "totally ineffective," strikes him as too namby-pamby, he has unilaterally decided to simply kill suspected drug smugglers. Hey genius version of Walter White, as long as there is a demand for something, there will be someone to sell it. No demand - No sales. Example is I'm selling Buggy Whips real cheap, any Buyers?
