"He even complained of the bad role the [Mexican] army is playing in the fight against narco trafficking," Estevez, who writes for Forbes and is close to Mexican journalist and anchorwoman Carmen Aristegui, said during an interview with Aristegui's eponymous news outlet.
Trump "even suggested to [Peņa Nieto] that if they are incapable of combatting [narco trafficking] he may have to send troops to assume this task," she said.

Business insider is one part Forbes and one part National Enquirer. I don't believe any of that story personally. Not saying it can't have happened, I just doubt it and have seen so much garbage on that site
