Those cartels poured money into the Biden Campaign, and they lost.
Biden's illegal immigration push benefitted the Dems with needed votes (and barring unsuccessful amnesty efforts down the road, at LEAST, improved electoral representation which would also sway the elections towards Democrats since illegals are counted in the census when determining allocation of electoral votes.
Bidens immigration policy also benefitted drug cartels massively and expanded their business in human trafficking and made their drug trafficking much easier.
Look no farther than the mass autopen pardons at the end of Biden's term to see which allies he sought to help. "Inexplicable" pardons to drug cartel ring leaders which have one obvious explanation.
The Dems also undoubtedly got lots of cash from the cartels for their war chests in the deal (and who knows where that white substance found in the Biden WH came from?).
Thank goodness for President Trump.
