Very poor reasoning. The article suggests that one shouldn't crack down on cartels and businesses that benefit from them for some poorly specified reasons.

If the status quo has not worked, and arguably, made things worse, then I say this is a tactic worth exploring.

Trump doesn't want either to destroy or to strengthen the cartels. He wants to back them into a corner where they have to give him a cut.
