"El Chapo" aka Max Aragon

Like we say in cubano, "la bola pica y se extiende".
The "El Chapo" story has a new edition, or its California chapter:
"Joaquin Guzman Loera, known as "El Chapo," the kingpin of the Sinaloa cartel was issued a California Driver's License according to areport from Univision. The documents obtained by the Hispanic network are from a Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) report where it states the drug lord obtained his license in 1988 under one of his aliases,Max Aragon. "
It gets better, or worse depending on how you feel abot national security:
"When "El Chapo" was issued the driver's license, he was already a wanted man by the DEA."
I have a simple question:  What other cartel leaders have licenses in California or in the US?

He is going to Trump for a while

(My new American Thinker post)


On Saturday, Mr Trump's presentation showed me two things:  

1)  He's touched a never out in the country by talking plainly about illegal immigration.   Mr Trump has made it about "illegal" rather than immigration.   I hope that other GOP candidates are taking notes and developing a backbone; and,

2)  He is speaking too much from the heart, as he said.   I think that speaking from the heart is a good thing but running for president requires a little more structure and discipline.  Saturday's speech was way too long.  He spoke too much about himself and his attacks on Governor Bush were way too personal.   Why take a shot at the Bush name?   Bush-41 served in World War II and very respected.   Bush-43 kept the country safe and left a stable Iraq.

Nevertheless, he will trump on for a while.  He's got the money and there is an audience for what he is saying.

My good friend, Barry Casselman, has the right idea: 
Like his left wing Democratic equivalent, Senator BernieSanders of Vermont, Mr. Trump has the temporary advantage of being much more interesting to the mediathan his opponents. 
I agree that Trump is talking to the base about immigration and Sanders is giving liberals a taste of the 1960s.  

Where does Trump go from here?   He will trump on but facts will soon get in the way.    

Mr Trump is not really a conservative and has been on the left of many issues, as Chris Cillizza wrote.     All of these "flip flops" will come out as he debates better politicians, such as a Rubio who is always so well prepared.   

P. S. You can listen to my show (Canto Talk) and follow me on Twitter.
