Mexico's billion dollar drugs lord known as 'El Chapo' has gloated on Twitter about his escape from a maximum security jail by taunting authorities and threatening US-presidential hopeful Donald Trump.
Joaquin Guzman, billionaire head of the powerful Sinaloa Cartel, made his jail break on Saturday morning and is on the run from Altiplano jail, 50 miles outside of Mexico City, security officials said.
His audacious escape saw him dash through the mile-long tunnel system, which led to a building under construction next to the prison - from where he collected clothes left for him by his conspirators.
But following his escape he has took to Twitter and used it to hit back at Trump, who has said that the Guzman embodies 'everything that is wrong with Mexico' and added he would 'kick his ass'.
On the account, administered by Guzman's son Ivan, the escapee reportedly wrote: 'If you keep p****** me off I'm going to make you eat your words you f****** blonde milk-s*****'.

(52,483 posts)i prefer the guardian, the daily mail can be a bit conservative and/or "new york post"-ish at times.
but mostly it's reliable, certainly when it comes to factual reporting.

(65,527 posts)less tawdry newspaper.
All our MSM have gone tabloid these days, but some are worse than others. DM is a tabloid, but like other tabloids, it does get it right sometimes--as The Enquirer did with the John Edwards affair.
OTOH, "respectable" rags like the NYTimes are quite capable of printing lies and rumors without making any effort to verify their info, as in the recent sensational claims about the Clintons, based on a RWer's hit piece of a book but presented breathlessly as a huge scoop, and then qualified with a whispered "Oops!" much later.
So, as Rachel Maddow says, "Watch this space." Maybe the info will be proven accurate. It sounds plausible enough, but who knows?

(135,425 posts)It's not an insult in and of itself, but tone could easily make it so, turning it from 'blonde' into 'pale/washed out' or something on those lines. I think it is safe to say that Mr. Guzman wasn't paying "The Donald" a compliment.
For those who have some familiarity with the language, here's the bleep-free untranslated commentary--rough language ahead, fair warning:

One thing I'll say for that drug dealer, he sure knows how to string some invective together in 140 characters or less!

There's a more, errr...offensive translation for cagaleche further down in this thread, and I tend to think that is probably accurate. I suppose the English translation would be "Santorum...?"

(25,294 posts)I'm almost thinking that Trump helped dig the tunnel for the escape. Timing is everything and Trump is 'Don King' like in promoting. And Trump has the hair thing going just like Don King. Yeah - I know Don King was a boxing promoter - but - Trump v El Chapo sounds more like a wrestling match.

(19,569 posts)He called him a Caga Leche. It's a nasty slang term in Spanish. It's homophobic and vile, but I guess it's about what one would expect from El Chapo.

(26,512 posts)herding cats
(19,569 posts)I figured that was what he was saying, so I double checked it. It's not something we should be praising here, but people didn't know what it meant. Now they do.
Guy Whitey Corngood
(26,512 posts)soon as I read the original I remember how I'd even used that term growing up before I knew better.
herding cats
(19,569 posts)Which made it more confusing for people. Like you, if I didn't already know the term I wouldn't have looked at the Spanish version to see if that was what he had said.
Fred Sanders
(23,946 posts)herding cats
(19,569 posts)If anything I think it helps bolster Trumps position, sadly. Luckily for Trump Guzman has a lot of people ahead of him on his list of people he's after.
HipChick
(25,485 posts)MADem
(135,425 posts)though it's rather unkind and crude, certainly.
El Chapo is certainly not the Man of the Year--he is a freaking drug lord, after all, but when one shithead does battle with another shithead, it does tend to create a climate of ... amusement.
herding cats
(19,569 posts)I only mentioned what it really was saying, and that it was homophobic, so people around here would know he wasn't calling him a milkshake or a milk sucker. Worse yet, lift the actual language off the twitter feed and think it translates to milk sucker or milkshake. That could lead to some very uncomfortable moments.
MADem
(135,425 posts)I can understand the other meaning, though--it's just that when I am using Spanish, that kind of language does not come up in ordinary conversation; also, I'm not up on the latest slang (aside from the fact that my linguistic roots are in Spain as opposed to Mexico--though I like Mexican Spanish--it's very clear to my ear).
The "caganer" (shitter) word/concept is common in Spain (and in Napoli, Italia) as well--they put a shitter in every Christmas manger scene, often they're famous people (I always wanted a George Bush one): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caganer

(1,238 posts)Especially when they come from Cartels. They are brutal and do have resources to carry out their threats. Having them involved in our political process and threatening candidates who speak about them is very well a danger to our democracy. If our elected officials or those running for office start getting intimidated it could have effects down the line on policy and governance.
gratuitous
(82,849 posts)El Chapo merely said he was going to make Mr. T Rump eat his words, which is not an actual death threat. In Elonis v. United States, just decided this last session, online threats aren't really threats:
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/06/02/us/supreme-court-rules-in-anthony-elonis-online-threats-case.html?_r=0
So, according to the Supreme Court, you know, legal.

(1,061 posts)However, I don't see the Trump vs 'El Chapo' vendetta as a direct involvement of the cartels in US politics.
Although I suspect the cartels are involved in other ways.

El Chapo just made things worse for the many good Mexican folks.
On edit, the recent race problems are the fault of cops and their guns, not Obama or Sharpton.

(724 posts)I can't cheer for El Chapo. He's a notorious drug dealer responsible for hundreds of deaths. I don't think it is funny this guy has escaped from jail. He's vicious and dangerous. Trump is a kitten by comparison.
prayin4rain
(2,065 posts)except it's thousands of deaths, not hundreds. Anyone who is amused either has no clue what type of person this man is, or is sick.
I'm from Texas and love Mexican people. I was sickened and worried when Trump spewed his racist shit, but there's no evil comparison here.
