President Trump describes Mexico as one of the ‘most dangerous country’ in the world

President Trump has described Mexico as one of the world’s “most dangerous” countries in a Monday night tweet.

The president claimed that drug cartels are “in total control” of the area south of the U.S. border and warned that Mexico “must eradicate this problem.”

“The Coyotes and Drug Cartels are in total control of the Mexico side of the Southern Border. They have labs nearby where they make drugs to sell into the U.S. Mexico, one of the most dangerous country’s in the world, must eradicate this problem now. Also, stop the MARCH to U.S” Trump tweeted.

In a second tweet Monday, President Trump repeated calls for Democrats to back tougher immigration laws. “If the Democrats don’t give us the votes to change our weak, ineffective and dangerous Immigration Laws, we must fight hard for these votes in the 2020 Election!” he wrote.
