Someone better explain to the populace sheep, and the media that a few thousand men burning US flags on the way to our border is not a “caravan.”

This is an eventual INVASION and should be referred as such.

Should he just skip the steps and nuke southern Mexico, or some other goofy action because it’s more entertaining?

An amusing hyperbole. No, President Trump should not skip any steps that can prevent a war.

It would be best if non-violent measures are tried first, and event better if they actually work.

But if they do not stop the invasion, then forceful, violent and even lethal measures will be appropriate. It won't take nukes, or event much in the way of conventional weaponry. Small arms and mobile reconnaissance forces at most will be sufficient.

But the organizers of this party are perfectly willing to sacrifice 10,000 peasants to make the American Government, and President Trump, look bad.

So be it.

If it goes that far, then we should also hunt down and kill the organizers of this event. This is war. Innocent people die in war. War really sucks. If we must do it, then go in without restraints and get it over with as quickly as possible.

“Take out the Front of the Bridge into Mexico...”

You do realize that none of those people are anywhere near that bridge?

And you do understand that our border consists of lots of connected land?

Mr. President,
What will happen if they simply ignore the military on the border and walk right through them by the thousands? Do you shoot to kill? Then what?

This a PERFECT opportunity to stop the flow of illegal drugs.
It will only take a few days for the Democrat-run inner cities to erupt into chaos, much of that economy relies heavily on gov subsidized ( via welfare, etc.) drug sales.

We have already seen this. Remember New Orleans after the storm?

Trump, you want to win. Then drop the reduce and cut the hell out of all aid. These Countries are real shi! houses of corruption and a total economic failure. And as far as Mexico, they have a military and no reason not to stop them cold.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

although the “aid” to corrupt foreign gummits is generally a waster of taxpayer money, what needs to be cut off, imo, is the aid the illegal immigrants receive once they invade/coloize America.

take away the carrot of healthcare, welfare, education, housing, and they’ll quit coming.

imo, we must stop the European immigration model.

look what it’s done to britan, germany, scandanavia, Italy.

the only Europeans that get it are the pollocks.

It’s not a “Caravan.” That Word makes it sound like a bunch of friendly circus entertainers are coming to town. This is a Hostile Invading Army.

Yup. The American sheep populace will continue to refer to this INVASION as a caravan because they’ve been conditioned to follow the herd... sort of like “undocumented immigrant” vs ILLEGAL ALIEN. Pathetic.

Trump had better get our military in position to repel an eventual INVASION.

There’s a whole lot of places along I-10 called Fort This or That. Those places got those names because actual forts were established there. To secure the damned border. Using the Army. That’s what the Army is for; not overseas adventuring. “Securing” the border with a civilian Border Patrol is a luxury afforded by peaceful and friendly neighbors. Mexico is not friendly. Employ the Army for what the Army was established for, repelling invasion.

“We are a nation of immigrants” is the biggest lie of all. Every country is a nation of immigrants in that the history of all humanity prior to the modern era (approx. the last 100 yrs) is one of migration around the world. All countries in the Americas could be called a nation of immigrants. But no one is an immigrant in the country of their birth no matter where their ancestors came from.

This is an invasion of our country.

The President needs to convene an emergency meeting of his top advisors, especially military, and issue a warning proclamation of exactly what will happen if this “caravan” keeps coming. The only two choices are military force (which includes shooting) and/or putting all these people in massive detention camps. Neither choice is going to go over with the MSM - but he needs to show that this truly is a national emergency requiring all assets of the government on call.

All the aid money is going to the corrupocrats none of it is helping the people. If the elite in those countries can’t control the people maybe living like a peon will help.

Personally I’m tired of paying taxes to fund a military that protects other countries but is not permitted to protect our own. I’m tired of paying taxes so a bunch of lazy stupid people get fed off my dime.

Trump needs to release the information about who is funding this invasion. This invasion is timed to hit the border just before the elections and was organized and paid for by someone. Certainly our intelligence services and DOJ know or have good information about who is doing this...release it now. My bet George Soros and even the DNC are funding this invasion.
