“Don’t blame Trump. “

He ran and won on fixing this utterly ridiculous problem. Ignore the law in the name of national security under authority of CIC. Assert executive power. Let Congress fume and spitter all they want. Tough action here could bolster his base, make them forget about the omnibus disaster, prevent a Dem house come November, get him re-elected and prevent impeachment. Wimping out here could assure a Dem House and impeachment. The choice is his.

This seems like a probe of the Trump admins resolve.

This is absolutely a test of Trump's resolve. It's clearly an organized happening, otherwise it wouldn't be a "news" item. It amazes me that Soros can do that, but with enough cubic dollars I suppose anything is possible.

This caravan is going to be stopped on American soil. As soon as ICE detains them, they are compelled BY LAW to bring them before a judge who will them a date when next to appear.

Mexico could have stopped them but refused so Trump is retaliating against Mexico and urging the feckless McConnell to invoke the nuclear option to undo fix the law.

President Trump, this is being funded from an org right here in the US. Blame starts and stops right HERE.

Fix it like you did the budget. Oh wait, maybe not.

I suggest we militarize the border. We are being invaded.

Yeah we were saying this under lil Bush Jr and that did not go far. PDJT want to keep talking about using the money allocated to the military to FUND the beautiful wall, hell just put the military on the BORDER with rifling pointed south.

Let the spinning projectiles spin.

This is the tipping point. Either Trump foils this attempt, or he is finished.

I agree. Let's see if his 3D chess book has any moves for this

We should be bombing the invaders, and destroying bridges and other choke points in front of them.

Yep. The Mexicans need a few bridges, esp. rail lines, taken out across their country....maybe some water pumping stations, too.

Perhaps now Gen Mattis will get serious about border security. From the pics most appear to be military aged men.

Send the NG to the border now!

And do what? Shoot them? The only thing that would work is The Wall. They will get thru and then millions more will come. We need The Wall.

Of course we need The Wall, however, we can’t build it in the next week...when these 1000+ plan to storm our Border Guards.

There needs to be military back up to prevent this group’s illegal entry, as hundreds/thousands are waiting to see if this illegal democrat led mob plans to harm our Border Guards. I say if they won’t turn back, and attack our border guards.. YES, SHOOT THEM!

Yes, Trump tweets, and speaks directly to the people. At least those who listen. So what’s your point?

We have border patrols, and at right time Trump will do what is necessary to protect border. The border wall cannot be built in a week, but it will be built!

Send army to border. Fire at will.

Hmmm... how many unarmed women and children do you think our soldiers would be willing to kill?

Trump needs to talk with the guy financing this invasion.....Soros! Soros more than likely paid Mexico to provide food and other necessities thus allowing the illegal migrants to pass through their country with escorts.
I do not see this invasion ending well.......

Frankly, not a bad idea to shoot some of them.

A phalanx of troops does tend to make people think twice about what they are doing. What's your alternative? The wall will take years. They are arriving NOW.

The Romans built a wall around Jerusalem in three days. Barriers can be erected quickly if there is the will and man power. Hungry fenced off it’s borders in a matter of weeks.

We finally have a president who is doing his job and warning the US citizens of a border breach and the sheeple brained washed idiots in the news seemed shocked he would do that. We are in trouble.

I believe we should make sure the wall is secure and sturdy, and I would think our military could build it. Seabees build military constructed compounds all the time, and is part of Navy.

In 3 days...lol. It’s not like we have a pile of rocks laying around down on the border. Everything will be shipped in, and just getting it ordered take time. This is the modern shipping era, not a just a go to work in past history! Sadly!

"Check this out - riot at the border:

https://twitter.com/RealJamesWoods/status/980538259313901568

.... In light of that report, It might be a wise idea activate the National Guard is preparation for the thousands that will more than likely swarm the Border. That was a small swarm in that video.
