Trump's 2018 deal with Xi included China agreeing to designate fentanyl as a controlled substance, with the stated goal of stopping Chinese fentanyl exports to the Mexican cartels. It was a big talking point for the administration, a sign of their top-shelf diplomatic skills. 1/2 — PolitiTweet.org

1. China ships chemicals to Mexican cartels. 2. Cartels use those chems to make fentanyl & get rich. 3. So rich they can bribe law enforcement & operate without fear. 4. So little fear that when they mistake US tourists for rival smugglers, they think nothing of murdering them. — PolitiTweet.org

5 years later, the Chinese are just exporting the chemicals and letting the cartels mix them. China's gonna China. You can't blame a scorpion for stinging you. Xi is who we think he is. So we need to be a lot smarter. 2/2 — PolitiTweet.org
