The present article analyzes the construction of a key foundation of the movement (or ideology) known as "Trumpism" (or "Trumpist"), which is linked to the United States' drug policy and its relationship with Mexico. Firstly, it describes the origins of an anti-narcotics and border security strategy proposed by former President Donald Trump in 2017 and amplified by sympathetic politicians and supporters who consider a possible military intervention in Mexico as an electoral strategy in 2024. This analysis highlights the elements of misinformation and propaganda of the Trumpist strategy and revisits the use of psychological operations--outlined from the perspective of the U.S. Army manuals and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)--as a tool for persuasion and electoral marketing. The text serves as an analytical framework to explain part of the political discourse of Trumpism within the context of the 2024 elections. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
