Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump arrives to give a speech outlining his vision for tax reform at his skyscraper on Fifth Avenue on September 28, 2015 in New York City.
However reports have also emerged that Trump has discretely asked the FBI to investigate the authenticity of these threats against him, telling various media outlets “the law is working very hard right now on the situation here”. Most news outlets reporting on the matter have qualified the supposed bounty as being “dead or alive”, meaning that Guzman doesn’t care how Trump is delivered to him.
According to an anonymous source, the runaway drug lord (picture above) “wants Donald Trump dead and will pay any amount of money to have Donald Trump’s head”. Trump claimed he’s the only one powerful enough to stop El Chapo.
Although prisoners in maximum-security Altiplano reformatory in main Mexico, El Chapo remain provided simple directions for control of his league, Sinaloa, for his nihayet, Ivan Guzmanis thatSalazar, along with other lobby users.
