When the news broke that Mexican Drug Lord "El Chapo" had escaped from prison, it didn't take long for Donald Trump to chime in:
Taking to Twitter on Sunday, Donald Trump used the escape of notorious drug lord Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman this weekend to criticize Mexico, the Media and fellow candidates for president.

Unbelievable corruption and USA is paying the price. I told you so!”
You don't usually see escaped convicts on the lam turn to Twitter to respond to insults, but that's what El Chapo did to Trump. And in response, The Donald called the FBI:
Donald Trump thinks he can kick El Chapo’s butt — but the billionaire called the FBI when the Mexican drug lord returned the threat.
The 2016 presidential hopeful contacted federal agents Monday when a Twitter account claiming to be the escaped Joaquin (El Chapo) Guzman tweeted profane, hostile messages at him, TMZ reported.
A day earlier, Trump tweeted that he’d kick Guzman’s "ass," unlike other presidential contenders who are softer on immigration.
“Keep f--king around, and I’ll make you eat all of your godd--n words, f--king whitey f----t @realDonaldTrump,” an account claiming to be Guzman’s official Twitter presence tweeted at Trump’s account in Spanish.
The Daily News could not verify the @ElChap0Guzman’s authenticity, but the account has more than 272,000 followers and dates back to June 2012.
I doubt this will stop Trump from saying stupid stuff about Mexico, but I bet he's a little more careful in the future.
