We probably are.
It is the nature of this situation that such would not be publicized.
We have the people to do this, the skill and ability.
Unfortunately, the main opposition is the U.S. Media.
Which? My comment about the plan, or about his comments about the NYSE?
It seems like our southern neighbor has an invasion matter they demonstrably cannot handle:
We are a good neighbor. We are caring.
We need to go into our neighbor's yard and assist him with the people who have invaded his territory.
You can have a zillion troops but if you can’t demonstrate the POLITICAL WILL to tresspass Mexican sovereignty..?
********
We wouldn’t be trespassing Mexican sovereignty if we are being invaded from Mexico by a large force with the cooperation of the Mexican government. Only timid lawyers from the Federalist Society would even think we were trespassing and that Mexico has a sovereign right to keep the USA from protecting itself.
You need to have the music!
ROFLMAO !!!! Awesome !!!!
Diseases kept on the South side of the boarder aren’t our concern.
Russia uses a lot of military police for this kind of work. Does USA have enough MPs?
I had not heard about his comments about the NYSE - what did he say?
im worried about our men, not theirs
Yes. A Freeper suggested pamphlets be flown over and dropped on the horde. I agree with that suggestion.....as one tactic.
The leftists and presstitutes will be seething with anger over this.
This will only support the Red Tide and crush any hopes for the democrats to take control over Congress.
Just like the Kavanaugh hearings - Rats have shot themselves in the foot with this latest manufactured crisis.
Which has backfired against them.
It is the obvious outcome best suited to advance the "Progressive" agenda.
But in today's media universe, the obvious is not always the best.
Thank God (and I mean it literally) this happened after President Trump had two years to gain some control over the executive branch from the deep state.
Think if this stunt had been pulled 18 months ago!

The US military will deploy 5,000 troops to the southern border - up from initial estimates of 800, according to the Wall street Journal, citing US officials. The troops will be sent to Texas, Arizona and California as Central American migrant caravan makes its way north through Mexico.
Defense Secretary Jim Mattis told reporters Sunday that the military has already started to deploy countermeasures to the southern border, following weekend reports that Mexican police had abandoned their own blockades as a massive Central American migrant caravan continues their march north, reports AP.
Do not take the name of the LORD God in vain and use it as a curse word...
Not enough soldiers...ought to have the same no as invaders. Order for them would be to catch one...
Tell us just one time in history when a soveirign nation allowed another to send armed troops across it’s border for preventive measures like this.
These troops are useless unless we put them a few yards (say 10 yards) into/onto Mexican soil to KEEP these invading asylum seekers off of US soil. Where the open borders lawyers get involved.
Trump will do this if he is a player. A real player. You f up and destroy the great asylum scam this way where the illegal third worlders and their lawyers win.
Just do this Mr Trump. Lets show the rotten corrupt Mexicans and the CentAm invasive forces how America really plays this game. Your polling ratings will go up up up up Through the Roof! And will carry Republican candidates.
Expect state leaders in California and New Mexico to obstruct, if not outright attack federal troops doing their jobs. The next Ft. Sumpter.
Like I said, it was just stupid unpreparedness.
He was at the rally yesterday and remarked that he considered cancelling it in light of Pittsburgh. But then he said if the stock market could open the day after 9/11 then he could do the rally so as not to give the shooter any validity. Then he named the guy who opened the stock market saying what a great guy he was.
Except the stock market was closed from 9-11-9/17 and he got the guy’s name wrong. The media doesn’t need ammunition to attack him. I’m just being cantankerous but unforced errors are exactly that.
