TRUMP: THE DRUG TRAFFICKER’S FRIEND

Why is he blowing up boats with low-level drug runners,
and letting the kingpins go free?

Despite his anti-drug rhetoric, Donald Trump has issued more pardons to drug dealers than any president in history.

WELKER: Isn't it possible that even the act of taking off a t shirt could've been part of an attempt to get attention for help?

TOM COTTON: Or it could've been an attempt to signal to another cartel boat to come pick them up and pick up the cargo
