crush the cartels

They do not need to do this. All they need to do is legalize all drugs and the "evil" cartels will turn into enterprises.

The war on drugs has been going on for over fifty years with no resolution in sight and not much to show for it except wasted tax payer money. A radically different approach is perhaps warranted.

The US needs to legalize drugs, if they don't, there will continue to be a market and cartels will serve that market. That's not something Mexico can control, so the next best option is to drive them out of Mexico.
