Building a wall using defense assets and funds to build a wall makes a lot of sense. Turning back the invaders is a matter of national defense.
Jim,
This caravan of illegals is enough to get emergency action done.
If these people think they will just overrun the border and have a grand ole time, they will soon discover their action will speed up enforcement.
President Trump will act on this.
Ryan, McConnell, McCarthy,....hello...??? Romney-McDaniel??
Can this guy get a little back up??
Remember how Trump Caved on DACA? Some of us said to hold your ire. First impressions ain’t worth a dam if that’s all you know.
He knows if the 1,500 come through the next wave will be 150,000.
See, this perfectly illustrates the current insanity that is the Federal Court system.
The program was started by Obama by executive order.
The courts do nothing.
President Trump doesn't even issue an executive order, just wants it to expire on the date specified in the original order.
The courts stop him; in essence, preventing him from inaction.
Utterly insane.
There should be no DACA.
It was illegal from inception.
If we had an opposition party they would have stopped it before it started in 2012.
The GOP refused to sue.
This reminds me of the scene in the Penguin’s office in the “Blues Brothers”. Jake offered to help, the offer was refused, and then he said “Well I guess you’re really up s#it creek!”
Trump offered to help the Dems with any DACA bill they brought him. They refused his help. So now I’d say they’re really up s#it creek.
Now he can declare a national emergency (illegals, drugs, criminals, etc) and use his power as the chief executive to use all available means needed to secure the border.
The Democrats get nothing. If they try to get some looney-tune judge to stop him, there’s only 200+ years of historical precedent of the Potus using executive authority to enforce our borders.

With President Trump offering a deal for more than what the dims wanted and their refusing the offer, how can you not expect a retaliation?
With that happening at least twice, how can anyone claim that, just on a whimsy, he decided to be strong against DACA?
Add to that the fiasco that is descending upon us on the Mexican border. AM I THE ONLY ONE THAT DID NOT EXPECT THAT?
When things change, you ADAPT. I can’t blame him for changing his mind. Circumstances change and you adapt.
Need Kennedy and RBG to retire
Then nuke in 2 pro-2nd Amendment, pro-Constitution (as it stands) and overall pro-Bill of Rights SC justices.
Nuke them in ASAP, when possible.
Our President calls Jerry Brown 'Moonbeam' just like us.
This caravan of illegals calls themselves "Migrantes en la lucha" ("Migrants in the Fight") organized about a month ago by a mysterious group Pueblo Sin Fronteras (People Without Borders) who declare "We want to become one, supporting us shoulder to shoulder and show that together we can break down borders".
Here's their Facebook page:

Note they're organized out of Chicago.
1. Question: how can this event be construed as anything other than an invasion pointed directly at the US sovereign border?
2. Question: if these 'refugees' are in such peril in their homeland, why are the Mexicans not giving them asylum?
3. Question: Pope Francis who has often shown sympathy for such refugees, why doesn't he use the vast Vatican wealth to arrange a ship to bring them to Rome?
Odd how 95% of the horde are robust-looking males--although the scarce women with babe in arms are favored by the media photogs.
Much like the earlier European migration that put immense pressure on Germany, this bold South American army is a direct, unambiguous challenge to our sovereign borders.
The European onslaught may have overwhelmed and weakened Germany's Merkel, but a strong, militant defense of our American border against the advancing horde is right in President Trump's wheelhouse.
and then there’s Congress ,,,, (crickets)
Well, I’d say this pretty much puts the kibosh on gun control talks.
We turned back the buses once, we can do it again, eh, Jim? Only this time Trump will be standing with us. And those buses won’t be rerouted in the dark of the night to points in mid-America like happened last time, tripling populations of small towns and erasing local culture as if the townspeople were already dead and gone. The only gear they’ll get to use is ‘reverse.’
Vive Les Deplorables!
Question: Are the invaders planning to cross the border infiltration-style, being led by "coyotes"?
Simple, humane solution: As CIC, Deploy NG and Reserves to the border areas and order them to pick off "Los Coyotes" right in front of the invaders. Head shots only for psychological effect.
Whereupon if the invaders do the smart thing and run south, they don't get rounded up and sent to a tent jail with a barbed wire fence, etc.
They could of course turn themselves in but they would find that they're going home, where they can bear witness that the gringos are shooting invaders, especially "Los Coyotes".
Oh, that guy who just got shot wasn't a coyote, he just looked like one? Too bad. Play risky games, win big prizes. Enough is enough. And screw Mexico if they don't like it. They need us more than we need them.
B-b-but the MSM and the Dems won’t like him anymore now.
Bttt.

I sleep easily nowadays knowing we have a President looking our for OUR interests.
Trump isn’t trying to please some separate paymaster, he is a man of the people, working for WE THE PEOPLE
