The Caravan Means the Wall WILL Be Built
PJ Media ^ | 10/23/2018 | Roger Simon

Posted on 10/23/2018 8:02:40 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

If the caravan of thousands of prospective illegal aliens marching for our Southern border like an invading army has succeeded in one thing, it is that the wall finally will be built.

You can book it. People are fed up. And they damn well should be. If it gets any worse -- and it could -- we might see an army of of our own citizen volunteers heading down to the border themselves to build it.

Talk about unintended consequences. Try that one on your piano, George Soros or whatever assembled reactionary leftwing creeps instigated this escapade.

And let's not forget Univision's professional prevaricator Jorge Ramos, who insists most of these "caravanserai" are legitimate "asylum seekers," as if there were some kind of genocide going on in Honduras as in Pol Pot's Cambodia. Yet somehow these same "refugees" are waving the flags of the very countries they are supposedly fleeing while burning ours, the very place they seek succor. Go figure.

But let's examine the numbers. Since 2005, with only a year or two of minor exceptions, slightly over one million people per annum have been granted lawful permanent residence status in our country. That's a far greater total, year over year, than anywhere else in the world. In fact, the U.S. has a hair under twenty percent of the world's foreign born population. We're incredibly generous.

But a million people a year being admitted legally is evidently not enough for our friends on the left who seem to favor open, unvetted borders on top of that.

Talk about not fair, the so-called "fairness" crowd is now supporting fourteen thousand or so people who want to enter the U.S. illegally by force while millions of others from all over the world waited, often for years, to get their papers.

Those law-abiding immigrants have a mighty good reason to be pissed and the rest of us have an equally good reason to want to see that wall erected pronto.

Building the wall will also help solve the number one healthcare problem in our country, far beyond insurance difficulties -- fentanyl. It will simultaneously undercut the world's most powerful terrorist organization, Hezbollah. For those who missed it, Iran's favorite terror army is heavily involved in the cross-border drug trade, as revealed recently in what may be the year's best piece of investigative journalism -- "The secret backstory of how Obama let Hezbollah off the hook."

Building the wall might take Obama off the hook by cutting the flow of fentanyl that, by itself, is likely responsible for the horrifying slide in life expectancy among Americans the last few years.

But back to the actual construction of the wall. How will it happen? If the Republicans hold the House, which is now a possibility thanks to both the caravan and Kavanaugh, Trump will be on the honeymoon he deserved when first elected. Funding for the wall will be top of the agenda.

If they lose the House, Trump will be motivated to have the military build it through the defense budget. The advent of the caravan will give him plenty of justification for that.

As I said, the wall -- book it!

Just as with the Kavanaugh stunt the Left can’t think two steps ahead to the end game.

This caravan-invasion is almost like a psy-op that Trump arranged to get the wall built. I can’t see it doing anything but benefiting his plans.

But then again, globalist-leftist-democrats are also that stupid to believe organizing an invasion of 10,000 migrants will help them.

Why doesn't Mitch just drop the Senate to 50 Votes & get TRUMP's funding + his DACA deal on his terms done???!!!!

Once it is done there will be no more Mexicans coming over illegally = No more Dem advantage!

We are at 21 months. The “Wall” has barely been built. So, anyone want to wager on when it will be completed?

The dims are between a rock and a hard place.

They promised a blue wave and have to deliver one, so they ordered one up from honduras.

I had the same thought while reading this article. Then the next thought that popped into my head is that will become the reason the Dems will demand another Special Counsel for 2021-2024 -- "Trump secretly assembled the invasion force against the U.S. to get his wall built."

That conspiracy theory is already being floated over at DU.

Instead of sending the military ... Trump should call on all Texas militias to man and defend the border.

Could you imagine heavily armed Texans defending their border ... would strike fear in the heart of the invaders.

The progress of the wall seems eerily similar to the rebuilding of the WTC site - taking forever with no good reason to delay.

That's what I never understood about this "caravan" coming during the mid-terms. This GUARANTEES the wall will be built.

Silly, Dems......

Ok, so the world defames the U.S. for trying to impose our way of government on others, then they all come flooding in demanding their “Constitutional” rights. Well, they have a country with it’s own equally valid Constitution, they should all be turned back.

Castles made of sand, fall into the sea, eventually. Party strategies based on lies cannot adapt to the dynamic changes in reality.

exactly! The minute that Dems take over the Senate (hopefully not soon) they will change the vote to 51. They won’t say HA HA YOU SHOULD HAVE DONE IT. No, they will have some pious rationale why it needs to be done to preserve the country. Besides, nowhere in the Constitution does it say that it takes 60 votes to pass legislation. Republicans are so stupid.

why are there no ‘journalists’ with this horde reporting on who is organizing and financing them and transporting and feeding them? This needs to be reported and publicized! Let’s get the word to Church Militant - they seem to be the only investigative journalists any more!
