Donald Trump Is Headed to the US-Mexico Border
ABC News ^ | 7/22/15 | Conor Kelly

Posted on 07/22/2015 12:46:27 PM PDT by jimbo123

Unlike Des Moines, Iowa and Manchester, New Hampshire, Laredo, Texas isn’t a typical stop on the presidential campaign trail.

Unless you are Donald Trump.

The town on the U.S.-Mexico border will become the center of attention Thursday when the Republican presidential candidate stops by for a visit.

Trump’s visit to the town, where the population is over 90 percent Hispanic, will begin with a town hall meeting in which law enforcement officers will give The Donald their own views on the situation at the border. Trump also plans to hold a news conference.

Garza said his invitation to Trump should not be considered an endorsement. He has also invited Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, one of Trump’s contenders for the Republican nomination.

The billionaire business mogul whose controversial comments about Mexican immigrants have been the talk of the campaign in recent weeks will receive a briefing from Hector Garza, president of the local chapter of the National Border Patrol Council, according to Trump's campaign.

One more Hispanic that was so infuriated by Trump's remarks, he wants nothing to do with him...

The Left is in for a big surprise...

I hope Trump and Cruz will ride horses wearing cowboy hats while inspecting the border. Would make great photo op!

You know the US Mexican border works like some kind of weird one way door...

If you are Non-American can enter from Mexico to US at will...

If you are an American you can not do the reverse.. US to Mexico at will..

So it would seem the Mexico has created a Berlin wall on our southern border that Mexico controls...

It bocks and controls people entering in to Mexico from the US...

But no effect on Mexico to US traffic

Really...you can go in to Mexico and stay at will al long as you like.. follow no rules... and Mexico has no say so????

You enter Mexico as Mexico guest...

But you enter the US from Mexico also as Mexico, not the US’s, guest....

Mexico has achieved political control of the flow across the US/Mexican border.......in both directions.....that not a border between equals.. it a door with Mexico having the one key

It like the US being a free market for China..but China being a closed market for the US...one way flow

Trump has taken over as interim CEO of USA,Inc. He is acting as if he is in charge and in control which is pretty accurate. The only thing left here is for the interim position to be permanent which should be a formality.

If they don’t quit trashing him (the GOPe) he will end up running as an independent. Not too smart of them, they will lose for sure then.

I figure that Trump has struck back at every politician that has attacked him verbally. El Whatever issues a death warrant.

Trump’s answer...”I’m going to the border. Show me what ya got.”

Political theater at it’s finest.

I can’t say I would vote for the guy...but he is entertaining.

Bernie, I told someone I couldn’t support him a couple of months ago. I may have been very wrong. We’ll see.

I’m in a wait and see mode myself.

When I saw his press conference at the border today and he told the reporter, more or less, “you are thru” I cheered.

He says things we all want to say. And he does amuse me.

Berdie, even those of us (at least myself) who support him, are in a wait and see mode. I’m not going to rule anyone out, particularly if they can comprehend the issues and will man up concerning them.

The press corp in this nation is a den of thieves and liars. They are stealing this nation blind, and we’re all tired of it. Trump taking them to task is great. I agree with you.
