Donald Trump took to Twitter Sunday and Monday to vent his outrage at the escape of the dangerous and powerful drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman from a Mexico high security prison.
The comical tirade began in the early afternoon Sunday when Trump tweeted about the drug kingpin’s escape, citing the “unbelievable corruption” that the USA is paying the price for.
Mexico's biggest drug lord escapes from jail. Unbelievable corruption and USA is paying the price. I told you so!

He then turned his aim toward Jeb Bush and Hillary Clinton:
Can you envision Jeb Bush or Hillary Clinton negotiating with 'El Chapo', the Mexican drug lord who escaped from prison? ….

…Trump, however, would kick his ass!

Now that the Mexican drug lord escaped from prison, everyone is saying that most of the cocaine etc. coming into the U.S. comes over border!

…..but that's what I've been saying. Very unfair treatment by the media!

El Chapo and the Mexican drug cartels use the border unimpeded like it was a vacuum cleaner, sucking drugs and death right into the U.S.

….likewise, billions of dollars gets brought into Mexico through the border. We get the killers, drugs & crime, they get the money!

When will people, and the media, start to apologize to me for my statement, "Mexico is sending….", which turned out to be true? El Chapo

The joke around town is that I freed El Chapo from the Mexican prison because the timing was so good w/ my statements on border security.

Mexico’s totally corrupt gov’t looks horrible with El Chapo’s escape—totally corrupt. U.S. paid them $3 billion.
