What this whole thing (cartels designated as terrorists, mexico-US border tensions, fentanyl epidemic, increasing violence in Mexico, etc) will lead to

So I think we can all agree things are heating up, and what I believe this will lead to is a couple high profile arrests, either El Mencho, los chapitos, or MF, and the cartels that survive will dial it back on the violence and on fentanyl trafficking to get the US off their backs a little.

.

The US government will declare victory because of the high profile arrests and the decline of fentanyl coming to the US, Mexicos government will declare victory when the violence goes down a little, and the cartels will declare victory because they will still keep making money and the governments will back off a little

.

I think this is the best case scenario for everyone involved, worst case scenario for all parties would be the US invades Mexico and the cartels retaliate on US soil
