Ron DeSantis is making waves with his unwavering\u200c commitment to protecting the southern\u2062 border.\u200b In a recent interview \u200cwith Norah O\u2019Donnell on the \u201cCBS Evening News,\u201d DeSantis \u200bstated that he would not \u200dhesitate to deploy military hardware and \u200beven\u200b launch missiles into Mexico to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-border-crisis-is-killing-americans-data-shows\/\" title=\"The Border Crisis Is Killing Americans, Data Shows\">combat drug cartels<\/a> if he\u200b were to become president.<\/p>\n<p>This \u200cbold statement came in response to a controversial super PAC\u200d ad featuring DeSantis, where \u2063he passionately declared \u200dthat the \u2063cartels are responsible for the deaths of countless Americans. The ad, aptly titled \u201cStone Cold Dead,\u201d\u2064 left no room for misinterpretation.<\/p>\n<p>While <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/macy-gray-pokes-the-hornets-nest-just-because-you-go-change-your-parts-doesnt-make-you-a-woman-sorry\/\" title=\"Macy Gray Pokes The Hornet\u2019s Nest: \u2018Just Because You Go Change Your Parts Doesn\u2019t Make You A Woman, Sorry\u2019\">critics quickly attacked<\/a> the DeSantis-aligned super PAC, accusing him of advocating for \u2063violence against illegal immigrants, the governor clarified that his remarks were specifically directed at hostile cartel members.\u2064 He emphasized that individuals crossing the\u2063 border with innocent \u2064intentions, such\u200b as women with babies, would \u2064not be targeted.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis is \u200dnot alone in his call for military intervention at the border. Other Republican figures, including Sen. J.D. Vance and Rep. Dan Crenshaw,\u200d have expressed \u2063support for similar measures. The idea\u2063 of deploying the military to address\u200d the border crisis has also\u2062 been endorsed\u200d by several Republican presidential candidates,\u2064 such as Nikki Haley, Vivek\u2062 Ramaswamy, and Tim\u2063 Scott.<\/p>\n<p>Former Trump administration\u2062 Secretary\u2064 of Defense, Mark Esper, even\u200b revealed in a memoir \u200cthat the former president \u2063had considered using\u2063 missiles against cartels during his tenure. \u2064However, legal concerns and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/desantis-wont-rule-out-use-of-missile-systems-at-border-says-hell-leave-bad-guys-stone-cold-dead\/\" title=\"DeSantis open to missile systems at border, vows to eliminate threats.\">potential asylum claims ultimately deterred<\/a> him from taking such action.<\/p>\n<p>While some may argue that pressuring Mexico \u200dto address its own crime problem would \u200cbe \u2062a more diplomatic approach,\u2062 DeSantis believes that a strong military\u200d presence at the border\u2063 is necessary to\u200b send a clear message. He asserts that America cannot simply view Mexico as an ally with a crime \u200bissue but must recognize it\u2064 as a failed state that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-has-signed-40-executive-orders-and-actions-since-taking-office\/\" title=\"Biden has signed 40 executive orders and actions since taking office\">requires decisive action<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis&#8217;s unwavering stance on protecting the border may lead to \u2062tense exchanges, but it is a necessary step towards achieving\u200d better results.
