Anti-Trump narrative

Yet again, the Trump administration has carried out extrajudicial killings in breach of international law. It's not because the U.S. has designated drug cartels as foreign terrorist organizations that its military can use lethal force against suspected drug traffickers. America's renewed war on drugs is set to become a new forever war against vague actors who are not really engaged in hostilities against the country.

Pro-Trump narrative

These military strikes on drug-carrying boats are exactly the kind of bold action needed to protect U.S. lives from narco-terrorist organizations that have been allowed to flood the U.S. with a deadly weapon that poisons Americans for too long. Traditional law enforcement approaches have clearly failed to stop this carnage. Either Venezuelan drug traffickers surrender, or new strikes will follow.
