IMMIGRATION Honduran migrant caravan grows to 4,000 amid spike in U.S. border crossings.....
NBC ^ | 10/17/2018 | Julia Ainsley and Abigail William

The Mexican government has sent 500 extra federal police to its border with Guatemala in anticipation of their arrival, say documents obtained by NBC News

U.S. Customs and Border Protection is tracking the caravan as the Hondurans make their way north toward the U.S. border. Meanwhile, the State Department is trying to stave off that possibility by compelling the Mexican government to stop them at its border with Guatemala.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will travel to Mexico to meet with his counterparts on Friday, and plans to stop the caravan will be a "prominent" topic of discussion, a senior State Department official told reporters on Wednesday.

"I am certain that there will be conversations in Mexico about how we can work together on this issue," the official said about the caravan. "We are certainly looking for concrete results and for solutions that work for both countries."

The walking is for pictures. They can’t walk across Mexico. Who is going to pay for bus caravans?

The people are feeding them alone the way....so is the red cross and other charities. You’ll see even 16 wheelers in photos loaded with water to help.

My understanding was PDJT convinced Mexico’s president to not allow them to cross into Mexico. Is this correct???

A Deep State operation intended to distract the president. Expect a few more of these “distractions” before Election Day.

500 extra police is nothing to a mob of 4000 people who want in. How did that work in Europe because this is exactly the same thing.......

We’ll be hearing the media crying out for the children and how wretched it is to live in their countries because of the violence their leaders refuse to control.

Send the troops to the border now, or federalize local law enforcement that's alongside the border.

Look folks, I hate to be a wet blanket, and I'm one of the strongest Trump supporters here, even when he first slid down the escalator.

But more and more, it's looking like Trump is trying to get some deal out of this. That he's using the issue merely to rally the base instead of just doing the right thing and to Hell with what the Courts or public opinion say. This issue is just too important to be dicking around and trying to appease Democrats who want open borders.

Troops should have been on the border from Day One of the Trump administration. All points of entry into the US should have been sealed. This would have stopped the crap back in June, and the crap that's happening now.

We are giving these countries millions of dollars in foreign aid and this is how they repay us. Why are we giving these s--tholes our hard-earned tax dollars? I work 2 jobs for crying out loud.

Trump needs to step up. He needs to get off of Twitter and hold a press conference that he's dispatching troops to the border.

Most of them are bordering on OBESITY; they can do with walking all the way and not eating at all.
