Mexican drug cartel 'not worried' about President Donald Trump 's plans for them, CNN 's John Sutter says.

Sutter spent two nights with members of one of the largest cartels in Mexico the week of Trump 's inauguration.

Trump has threatened to use the U.S. military against Mexican cartels.

The cartels say they're not worried about being targeted by the president.

Demand. As long as the U.S. continues to consume massive amounts of drugs, and as long as migrants are desperate to get within its borders, they believe their business will continue. Attacking these issues simply from the supply side by targeting cartels is not going to make them stop. Who knows if this is all macho bravado, trying to sound tough in front of a reporter with a camera. But for now, whatever its worth, the drugs keep flowing and so do smuggled migrants. Whether Trump can change that remains to be seen..
