Just visited Honduras for a day as a stop on the cruise we were on last week. Man, that place is a shit hole.

The organizer of this invasion needs to be revealed and held accountable.

While he’s cutting aid to Honduras he should also cut aid to Mexico and use the money towards the wall.

First step in negotiation is to find out what they want or value that you can take away and threaten to take it.

Get it going.

All that costs money too. Just build a wall and let them congregate on the other side of it. Then no one cares and no further money is spent.

Jugglers on stilts juggling grenades. See an illegal, pull a pin and pitch. I like your idea. Hell televise it. You need to email this idea to Trump. He loves ratings. ;-)

“And he is using the alleged “caravan” to try to push lawmakers to quickly craft and pass what he on Monday vaguely called “border legislation” without offering specific policy demands. That is unlikely, since it has been years since major policy legislation passed both the House and Senate without using special rules.”

What a whiny article!

Written by a liberal, no doubt

Trump says he’ll guard Mexican border with military.

Immigration of illegals and enemies is INVASION. Trump not only has every right to prevent invasion regardless of Congress, he has every DUTY to prevent invasion because the Constitution MANDATES that he do so.

“The United States...shall protect each [State] against invasion” U.S. Const., Art. IV, Sec. 4.

Yes, they’re very clever with their choice of words. I was listening to Fox News Radio a couple of hours ago, and they reported the stock market was up “... for now.” Do they ever report stock market losses as “... for now”? No, they don’t.

Well, clever wasn’t what I was thinking. It’s downright obvious. Poorly done ‘journalism’ and not at all clever.

It might be clever to a recent graduate from our public schools, that weren’t taught logical thinking. That’s the sad part. They’ll buy into it without even noticing they’ve been brainwashed.

‘for now?’

geez! Under a democrat, it would be that it is zooming up, never to stop.

Yes, the “alleged” caravan that we see pictures of, that is being talked about by the organizers, and that Mexico is now planning to stop in its tracks.

That “alleged” caravan.

Heck, the ABC (all bull crap) evening news was ridiculing it, as if it was a delusion from the mind of Trump. Those media creeps cannot report any NEWS, just lies and distortions.

Am fairly certain that has been covered - going public is a maneuver to reinforce the heat on what has already been discussed via back channels. It's certainly Game On time.

.... So let me get this straight ..... Apparently There is only one country in the world that Honduran Refugees can flee to right? There are no other countries closer to them?
