OR The naming of the Sinaloa Cartel as a terrorist organization might mean the collapse of the Mexican government.
This Federalist article links the MORENA political junta to the Sinaloa Cartel:
Would also explain why a Sheinbaum is not going to be the partner Trump sees in Mexico (a failed state since 1821).

Quote:
The naming of Sinaloa in particular is important because it implicates the Mexican state at the highest levels. Former Mexican President Andrs Manuel Lpez Obrador and his ruling MORENA coalition are closely connected to the Sinaloa Cartel, as is his protg and successor, President Claudia Sheinbaum. It's not too much to say that if the Sinaloa Cartel is a terrorist organization, then MORENA and the Sheinbaum administration are its state sponsors.
There is a mountain of evidence for this. The Sinaloa Cartel has long been deeply invested in Mexican national politics, and began bankrolling Lpez Obrador's political career as early as 2006, when AMLO, as he is called in Mexico, ran for president and narrowly lost to Felipe Caldern, who launched the Mexican drug war by deploying the armed forces against the cartels.
