Pres. Obrador: Keep Your Nose Out Of Our Politics…



So Mexican Pres. Obrador is telling Latinos in Florida not to vote for DeSantis. 

This particular posting has nothing to do with endorsing any particular candidate.  Quite frankly, this author has no more use for DeSantis than for Trump; DeSantis is as much a tyrant as Trump.

This posting is about a principle: if an American president told Mexicans for whom they should vote, Obrador would be screaming about outside interference in their internal politics all the way to the UN.  He can’t keep his own citizens in his own country, can’t deal with his own internal problems and corruption, yet he feels perfectly entitled to interfere in OUR internal politics - and the media and political establishment not only doesn’t tell him to keep his mouth shut, they encourage him, give him a platform for his blatant interference.  He even makes excuses for illegal aliens in his appeal: “We have to be thinking about this regrettable phenomenon of necessary migration…”

“Necessary migration.”

Not only can he not solve his own problems, he knows that shutting down illegal migration also shuts down a major source of funding for Mexico - to the tune of an estimated nearly SIXTY BILLION DOLLARS ANNUALLY.
