Donald Trump says he would ‘kick’ El Chapo’s ‘ass’

July 12, 2015

On Sunday, Fox News said powerful drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman escaped from a maximum security prison in Mexico and is now the subject of a massive manhunt. Not to fear, because Donald Trump said on Twitter that he would “kick” El Chapo’s “ass.”

Seriously.

Mexico's biggest drug lord escapes from jail. Unbelievable corruption and USA is paying the price. I told you so!

Can you envision Jeb Bush or Hillary Clinton negotiating with 'El Chapo', the Mexican drug lord who escaped from prison? ….

He issued a third tweet, but deleted it and replaced it with this, Twitchy said:

…Trump, however, would kick his ass!

The tweet got some rather mixed reviews:

@realDonaldTrump Let me ask you something. Do you imagine being POTUS involves a lot of direct negotiating with escaped narcoterrorists?

@realDonaldTrump you don't know what you're saying Trump, you better apologize, don't mess with Chapo, he will scare you.

Yes, @WrightBrunoS. @realDonaldTrump is going to negotiate with El Chapo, then he is going to kick El Chapo's ass.
