The drug cartels aren't going to get themselves involved in invading the US except as well-paid mercenaries (carrying some drugs to sell at the same time).

Another possibility is that American raids into Mexico may spill over onto the cartels. Armed conflict in your territory is bad for the cartels' business. It might provoke a counter-raid.

But I don't think the cartels' army would go far into the US, unless they had a specific target, or specific buyers for their goods (which, post-TDM, could be anything from OJ to certain hard-to-find spare parts -- and drugs, of course). The cartels will be like now -- they don't so much have enemies as customers and rivals-- on all sides.
