Donald Trump jumps on escape of 'El Chapo' Mexican drug lord as proof of nation's 'corruption'

[Vigilante]

"Truth" Trump right yet again!

Daily Mail ^ | July 12 2015 | Kieran Corcoran
Donald Trump has weighed in on the audacious prison escape of one of Mexico's most notorious drug lords, claiming it as proof of the country's 'corruption'. The presidential candidate, who has made attacking Mexico the central plank of his White House run, claimed that the United States 'is paying the price' for Joaquin Guzman, known as 'El Chapo' fleeing a prison 50 miles west of Mexico City. Posting from Twitter, he wrote: 'Mexico's biggest drug lord escapes from jail. Unbelievable corruption and USA is paying the price. I told you so!'

These comments are just the same as what we see with some of our posters. Accusations without reasonable evidence and then the ego thing, "I told you so." Maybe Reibus is right. Trump has to tone it down or be more personable than a schoolyard bully.

And by Drumpf Truck's "logic" the escape of the two prisoners in upstate NY is proof of America's corruption.

Upstate NY is CON$ervative, and Drumpf Truck is a New Yorker!

Notice how the America hating Trumpsters are out to divide America! To his scum followers, some states are not part of America.

Anyone that has spent any time in Mexico knows that bribery and corruption is rampant from the bottom to the top in that country. The escape of a Kingpin like El Chapo is a big deal he is a very powerful very evil man. Our Leadership and Media is all too happy to ignore the obvious question "How the hell has this guy escaped maximum security TWICE?" Good for Trump to put a spotlight on this.

Drumpf Truck bribes government officials to get the variances he needs for his developments. He bribed all the local Republican officials in Colts Neck NJ to build his golf course and secure the water he needs for the course. He gets the water BEFORE the needs of the residents.

Those guys escaped from a country club prison. If they were the biggest crime lords in the US, they wouldn't have escaped, because they would have been under much more scrutiny and significantly higher security precautions would have been in place. You cant buy your way out of a supermax prison. We dont have a corruption problem. Your comparison is invalid.

El Chapo didn't buy his way out of that prison. He tunneled his way out.

Good luck with that...
Although I'm not so sure threatening a billionaires life is such a good idea.

El Chapo himself is a billionaire too.

You will be waiting a long time.

His escape merely demonstrates the truth of Trump's statements about the corrupt nature of the Mexican government, not that proof was needed for those of us informed.

Cartel drug lords are used to controlling the political process. They do it in mexico. El chapo also knows that he has the full support of the US federal government.

So this never happens in the USA?

Don Tyson did it well also...

Someone needs to invent a gun that fires tacos at high velocity. Though Trumps hair might come to life and defeat the guy.

 

[NYcarbineer]

Yeah but this guy is the kind of rich, successful Mexican, who stays in own country, that Trump loves, isn't he?

Um, he didn't dig his own tunnel. A lot of people were paid off in this escape.
