So, are they going to salute as our new wards march in?
Send 1,000 Vietnam, Cold War and Desert Storm veterans down there with their personal firearms. Won’t cost a dime.
I love President Trump’s passion but Troops can’t do anything but support border patrol as they apprehend....
Which translated to temporary asylum for all....
They aren’t going to engage the invaders....
SEND INFANTRY , NOT JAGs !
Backed by armed civilian posse/militia, as a 2nd tier screen
Tents are for us, not them. I like this article better.
Fingerprint, photograph and interview every one of them, regardless of age. If anyone has a relative in the US, get their information and if they are illegal, send them home too.
Have intelligence officers interview the single men. They will be a treasure trove of information.
Logistical support isn’t going to stop an invasion. To the contrary, it will probably incent the migrants to keep going because they’ll see this as weakness.
The best way to halt the caravan is to make Mexico feel some serious financial pain. Only then will they stop it.
Words and threats won’t protect our country. Only definitive action will.
.... Information needs to get to them to tell them otherwise .... that will dampen their spirits a bit.
SEND INFANTRY , NOT JAGs !
Wont matter. Troops wont be packing live ammo. Rules of engagement will be to not confront or engage with the illegals. Once the illegals become aware of that they will simply ignore the troops.
Words and threats wont protect our country. Only definitive action will.
Liberals wildest wettest dream is for some ICE or other US agents to fire down on some illegals...
Screw any ROE’s
This situation compels Trump to be hard as nails , not marshmallow soft.
I don’t want to hear about the troops at the border, I want to see them. In a sane world, they’d be south of the Rio Grande if Mexico isn’t doing its share to stop them. How can Mexico say they’re helping when they aren’t stopping trucks that are transporting them?
Put the entire length of the Southern border plus 5 miles into the USA under Martial Law. Then the troops can be fully utilized. Still not a good idea to shoot anyone unless of course they shoot first.
They could even attack the troops using crying women and babies as screens.
