3:06Now PlayingPresident Trump defended his administration's decision to carry out airstrikes on the boats of alleged drug traffickers -- and suggested he was open to doing whatever it takes to stop their trade, including launching attacks on Mexican soil. "Every boat we knock out, we save 25,000 American lives," he boasted of the strikes on suspected narco-terrorists.
"Would I launch strikes in Mexico to stop drugs? OK with me. Whatever we have to do to stop drugs," he added. "I looked at Mexico City over the weekend. There's some big problems over there."
