That was the intent when “invade” took a lot of effort to stage.
Problem is it’s so quick to “invade” (ex.: ICBMs), or to invade elsewhere and have significant consequences here (ex.: WWII).
Hence the doctrine of decisive handling of threats abroad before they produce serious effects at home ... and the subsequent hesitation to bring military force here (if they’re needed _here_, something went _really_ wrong _there_).

And this little prick has personally assumed the costs of how many criminal Invaders?

Yeah, Zero! But he sure likes the idea of everyone else footing the bill while these parasites destroy the Country’s Social structure.

Note to Goosestepper, these criminals are low educated, low skill people that will take generations to get off the taxpayer teet, if they ever do so.

There ya’ go, the two already have something in common.
Gustavo is found to be lacking in gusto. Perhaps POTUS will lend him some of his.

The caravan has announced they are disbanding the trip in Mexico City. I guess they don’t want to do anything that would enhance Trump’s popularity. . . more winning. Gustavo, this was before the fat lady even took the stage. . . .

I’ll bet a prime rib dinner that this guy is LA RAZA thru & thru.

It is NOT ILLEGAL for any President to repel invaders of this country or any other.

Someone in Calif needs to drive this guy back to his country of origin.

Today-—IF you are NOT part of the SOLUTION-—You definately are part of the PROBLEM.

I’m glad I don’t know what it feels like to be that stupid.

“They are not allowed to act as police, but they are very much allowed to act as spotters for the border patrol.”

They can act as soldiers to stop invaders, well within their rights.

What a crock of BS. Trump did not direct the mob to come to the border and my country. Instead the ROE should be halt three times then fire. Trump should tweaks “ My placing of the military follows frontier days when we had troops patrolling the border because of raid by Mexico. Also because of the lack of support by the Senate and the tying of my hands on the wall. I most take this action to prevent an invasion of our country.”

Gustavo! We agree. They should all be interned in a tent camp in Minot, ND. Indefinitely and very Publicly.
