You forgot the best option! Forcing Mexico to become the 51st State
If Republicans win in 2024, they'll be war with Mexico. I'm as sure about it as the sun rising.
They'll need a drum to beat, and since their social policy is losing, it'll be "attack the cartels" full on military on foreign soil.
As much as the cartels are a problem, decriminalization is a better better option to defang them and then give Mexico a hand cleaning up if they ask for it. They aren't incompetent, shit, they build half of everything on this planet, more than China. We can, and should, respect their sovereignity.
A significant portion of the right doesn't even respect their humanity, respecting their sovereignty is going to be a tough one.
