President Trump announced Monday morning he is starting the process to cut or reduce aid to Central American countries that haven't stopped a caravan of illegal aliens. Over the past few days, the caravan has grown from 4,000 people to 7,000.
Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador were not able to do the job of stopping people from leaving their country and coming illegally to the U.S. We will now begin cutting off, or substantially reducing, the massive foreign aid routinely given to them.— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 22, 2018
Over the weekend, President Trump again threatened to seal off the border if Central American countries or Mexico couldn't control the flow north.
"I would call in the military and I would seal off the border. I would close up the border. If that happens, and if that continues to move forward, the caravan we’re talking about," Trump said. "I think some bad people started that caravan.. you have some very, very bad people in the caravan. But I will seal off the border before they come into this country."
In Mexico, authorities have failed to stop the massive caravan. Stretching one mile long, it has broken through borders, police lines and barricades. When the cameras are off, caravan members ditch the walking to grab rides on train and trucks.
During an interview with Fox News anchor Bret Baier on Friday, Mexican Ambassador Geronimo Gutierrez again argued Mexican immigration policy does not encourage illegal behavior and should be orderly.
President Trump is headed to Texas Monday afternoon and will campaign for Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) in Houston. There's no doubt the caravan will be a heavy topic during his remarks.
+1! This is the first thing that popped into my mind as well. Non-lethal, unless the perp stays put and wants to cook alive.
The way to stop the caravan is to stop the trucks outside of the cities. Shoot out the tires. take the keys, deny the fuel.
Do it outside the city so you can study who is facilitating the caravan.
Remember these are not the people from those central American countries. These are new people. They are almost all men. And they bring disease and crime with them.
What we really need is the directed ELF emitter known as the `crap cannon’ which causes incontinence in those it is aimed at.
How effective is it? Well, they deployed one in San Francisco but they can’t find the off switch.
All sounds so obvious. I'd be surprised, though, to see even a couple actually implemented. The government is now admitting to more than 22,000,000 illegal aliens in the US, others say it is as many or more than 60,000,000. I suspect the latter. To fix that requires stopping new invaders, if Trump is only one term, then around 30,000 deported EVERY DAY, else, if a second term, then still more than 10,000. When is the last time, if ever, that we've seen a number of deportees even a fraction of that daily count?
My guess is that by now there are a boatload of Mexicans in that caravan.
Liar. If that was true, then why did the May-hee-can government issue a comic book telling May-hee-can citizens how to safely invade the USA, and get on welfare?
Bingo! Post of day! Post of the month!
Cut everything OFF, can’t have it BOTH WAYS!
It’s an invasion. Shut it down.
“I bet corruption is rampant down there.”
There is no need to bet. They have been corrupt from day one, and will continue to be corrupt. It is just more acceptable than it is here; they don’t have to hide it.
Born in the wagon of a travellin' show
Eses would dance for the money we'd throw.
INVADING HOARD!
Hold a big Trump rally at the border....just in time to greet the invaders.
The pictures of the caravan can be used to make fantastically effective Republican campaign ads. If the GOP doesnt take full advantage of this unintentional gift from Soros, they deserve whatever results they get.
These are defiant, hostile, anti-American hoardes. Their attitude is NOT one of humble, poor, needy aliens.
Missed this part did we:
Mexican Minister of Propaganda Geronimo Gutierrez
Wasnt part of the NAFTA fix was to get Mexico to fix this $hit? Did that part get lost? Why would we come to any agreement if they arent gonna do anything about this.
9th circuit stay of implementation in 3.2.1
