    If the Narcos organized a boycott to expedite US regime change I’d laugh my ass off as not a soul left studying history would be able to declare anything except the final victory of drugs in the war on drugs. Like we all know drugs won, but by god that would be an annihilation.

      If anyone has the capital (both political and monetary) and the ability to execute, Narcos certainly do. Assuming they aren’t obsessed with greed, if they made some sort of public announcement saying that they are patriots and would not only boycott US markets but would engage with other producers to stop their own shipments, I would love to see the fall out. I suspect it wouldn’t be visible. After all, I suspect that most cocaine drug users in the US aren’t the most reliable voting contingent.

      But it would be fun to see how Trump reacts to it.
