So if his shit doesn’t work will he get arrested for being a SeeSeePee asset?
He's American though. He's of Chinese descent but was born and grew up in New Mexico. He has swallowed and drink the American kool-aid drink. You can probably blame all this love of America to his parents who left China when the country was mired in extreme poverty; his environment in New Mexico where more than likely he was the only kid that of Chinese/Asian descent in the sea of white/latino people.

If antagonizing 2 nuclear powers was not enough, how about some COIN operations too?

Many people were writing about this. Invading Mexico is not a fringe idea among Republicans at all. It really isn't. A lot of Republican politicians post Tweets about it commonly and they get a lot of likes. Immigration, cartels and drugs are all blamed on Mexico. If Republicans win in 2024, the invasion of Mexico will become a real possibility.

Wow they must be absolutely swimming in money in order to afford something like this.
They have no choice. US is banking on Mexico for nearshoring, but everybody in the Southern hemisphere hates their guts. The ruckus in their "backyard" is an existential threat. This attempted military coercion is a response to AMLO's recent maneuvers:

over Mexico’s proposed partial ban on GMO corn, Mexico’s government is looking to strengthen its ties with like-minded governments to the south. To that end, it has proposed forming a common front with at least five other Latin American countries to combat inflation, especially in food prices, across the region.

“We are going to carry out an anti-inflation plan of mutual aid for growth, for commercial and economic exchange with Latin American countries,” Mexico’s President Andrés Manuel Lopéz Obrador (AMLO for short)

during his daily press conference last Thursday.

The governments AMLO has invited to join the initiative are exclusively left leaning. They include Lula’s newly formed government in Brazil, Gustavo Petro’s in Colombia, Luis Arce’s in Bolivia, Alberto Fernandez’s in Argentina, Xiomara Castro’s in Honduras and, most controversially for Mexico’s neighbour to the north, Miguel Diaz-Canel’s in Cuba.

AMLO hopes CELAC will eventually supplant the widely reviled Washington-based Organization of American States (OAS) as the main institution for intra-regional relations.

Lula + AMLO =?

The success or otherwise of any new attempt at regional cooperation, if not integration, will depend in large part on how well AMLO and his Brazilian counterpart Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva (aka Luka), the region’s two most important leaders, are able to work together and find common cause. Latin American’s two super states, Brazil and Mexico, appear to be finally rowing in a similar direction for the first time in decades — and what’s more, in an era of rising multipolarity — this is a rare historic opportunity that is at least worth trying to capitalise on.
