Honduras Threatens US Military Bases Over Trump's Mass Deportations

3. Trump et. al. are fools if they think countries he wants to ding in some way have nothing to hit back with

Plus, some of these countries are barely making it and marginally keeping drug cartels and other illicit operations at bay. Whether it is cutting off the safety valve that is emigration, where those that emigrate frequently send large amounts of $$$ back home and help prop up weak economies, or otherwise weaken already strained governments, we could be looking at multiple de facto failed states in Central America and beyond. Mexico is already close to a failed state and if Trump/MAGA thinks its a problem now, wait until it is just drug warlords and their fiefdoms. We really going to invade and occupy and nation build? Could easily take bad and make it worse.
