American search-and-rescue teams are being deployed to Mexico after President Trump offered assistance to Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto following a massive earthquake, the White House announced Wednesday.

The president spoke to Mexican President Pena Nieto Wednesday pledged to closely coordinate with the Mexican government’s relief efforts.

A huge 7.1 magnitude earthquake struck Mexico Tuesday. The quake has led to at least 200 deaths and destroyed at least 44 buildings.

Enemy Media Screams: TOO LITTLE! TOO LATE!

California can donate 2 1/2 million Mexican citizens inexplicably residing in California. Maybe more.

[SpaceBar]

Gosh, this is just like when Hitler sent rescue workers to Poland.

[Safetgiver]

Why? How many of theirs came to Texas? Florida? I mean legally?

[DrDude]

Send the illegals back and let them help.

[jmacusa]

Send the Dreamers. I’m sure they’re dying to help.

[Cowboy Bob]

Many of the illegals are skilled in the building trade. They should go back and help rebuild their country!

[euram]

Perhaps he should send 2 or 3 million Mexicans back there to help with the rebuilding effort.

[alicewonders]

It is a compassionate thing to do, Trump is the bigger man.

[Brooklyn Attitude]

Why didn’t he send them BEFORE the quake? RACIST!

[ColdOne]

Yes he is.

How many lawns do you think survived?

Somewhat like the LIBS in California were against the internment camps in WWII as it forced them to get new gardeners.

MAYBE that is when the influx of border crossings started??

Really don’t mean to make light of a tragic situation and yes, PDT is being the ‘bigger man’ by sending aid to Mexico.

[bgill]

Fill the rescue planes with illegals. Tell them to do something good for a change.

[livius]

Brace yourself for some disgusting, cruel responses to your good news post.

We should be proud of offering help and instead Trump is being criticized and ridiculed for this. I can’t believe some of the nasty comments I have seen here.

I know! *SMIRK*

“MAYBE that is when the influx of border crossings started??”

Before WWII, US agriculture was a labor intensive operation. All the hired hands and farmer’s sons were drafted and Mexicans were legally allowed to help farm. When they were became available, German prisoners of war were also used. After the war, much of agriculture was rapidly mechanism, but Mexicans (legal? and illegal) still came for labor intensive applications.
