Full Title: UPDATE: NOW OVER TWO MILES LONG! Caravan Swells to Well Over 7,200; Mexico Police Stand Down as Illegal Migrants March to US
The illegal migrant caravan is sweeping through Chiapas in southern Mexico on Sunday, their numbers having jumped to over 7,000 overnight from just a few thousand as it became apparent the caravan would not be stopped by Mexico.

FR’s insanity button. Oh, well.
This President is surely being tested like no other. By all sides.
I’ve developed quite an admiration for Donald Trump over the last couple of years. I expect that I’ll enjoy seeing how he deals with this.
It will be more enlightening than all of the hyperventilating on this thread.
Finally, someone who hasn’t caught fantasy fever from the Left.
I congratulate you.
And why not?
Everybody keeps talking about immigration laws.
Guess what, they say anyone can come to our borders and apply for entry.
Doesnt say theyll be approved, but they can come and apply.
So if you are big on following the law, there it is.

Do you really even care about tackling the illegal problem in the U.S.? These people are not applying for visitor visas. These are precisely the types that will be a net drain on social services and competitors to U.S. citizens for entry-level jobs in various sectors. If the U.S. wants people of this type, then they can accept them when they apply for immigration at U.S. embassies...not gathering together in a “mongol horde” and swarming the border.
“How is there no video footage showing what is really going on? Couldnt the US tv crews notice how these people are travelling around (no freaking way are they travelling thousands of miles on foot, and where is their food and water coming from?”
They could, but that would mean ISTANT unemployment, and blacklisting forever from any media job. That’s how it is now, in modern American Media.
“The War Powers Resolution requires that the President communicate to Congress the committal of troops within 48 hours. Further, the statute requires the President to remove all troops after 60 days if Congress has not granted an extension.”
60 days would help...
...and hammering the walls together of your next new house.
Start bombing Mexico’s economic infrastructure (such as it is).
That might get their attention.
The military can operate on US soil. They did during periods of civil unrest in the 60’s, they can do it now, even more so since the passage of laws post 9/11 (Patriot Act, NDAA. It can be dicey, but it can be done. A state of emergency or a civil disturbance can do it, after all, it is an invasion.
Hey, I get it, but it is 2 weeks from a tremendously important mid-term election. Now is not the time. Stop them, and stop them definitively, but do it in such a way that you don’t give the hateful left any ammunition. Yes, it will cost more, but it will be worth it exponentially if we win the midterms.

Stopping them in an ugly way is worse than not stopping them at all. The “hateful Left” will always complain. The only difference between now and the past is that a lot more people just ignore them. I can’t imagine any law-abiding citizen will care if the government is compelled to use force to prevent entry.
You apply at the nearest embassy, not at my door.
It Is,,What it is.
Mexico is choosing to not stop them.
They are choosing Soros-paid money over PDJT’s foreign aide. That is a conscience decision that will not be ignored going forward. Claiming they can’t stop them is nonsense.
Military on the boarder is the only option. Some will get through. The judges are already tipped, this was planned months ago, don’t be naive.
I really don’t know how this plays out. Mexico’s leader believes foolishly what Jarrett and Soros tells them that Dems win election and PDJT is out. No other way to see this.
Stop them?!?! They are a gift. Film them burning our flag!! Let the American People witness the invasion of our country that was actively encouraged by the democrats. Mobs? What better example of a mob is there than this job stealing mob.
A “boarder” is someone who lives with you, or in a home provided/rented to them.
The line that separates territories is a “BORDER”.
Trump is the only one to take mexico on.
He is just getting started.
The Caravan will not stop him.
Trump has two choices...put the military on our border or cave.
Anything else can and shall be overturned by some Obama "judge" and/or take too long to make this stop.
Threatening the governments of Mexico, Honduras, and Guatemala with loss of funds hasn't done a damned thing.
And for those who claim that posters who say this kind of thing are "hysterics" are the stupid ones! It's the ONLY answer and no, Congress can't do a damned thing about it! And most of the American populace would be in favor of sending troops!
