How I’d Handle The Caravan

It should tell us something about her home country that a mother is willing to travel 2,000 miles with her 4-month old son to come here. Should tell us something about our country that we only respond to this desperate need once she is at our border. So far, in this administration, that response has included taking kids from their parents, locking them up in cages, and now tear gassing them at the border.

People are leaving violent countries where they fear for their lives. Without money, they are subsisting on hope for their kids, for themselves, that they can get to safety. After being denied the ability to lawfully petition for asylum for the last 10 days, they are desperate.

We choose how to respond to this challenge.

[C19fan]

He says they should be allowed in and "petition for asylum". He does not provide any detail of how the claims will be adjudicated given there is a massive back log of cases. He does not say whether the applicants will be released with the court date that will be ignored or held in camps until they get their court date.

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

Well, I’d settle for locking Beto up in a cage. Any takers?

[BenLurkin]

It’s an invasion.

[Harpotoo]

I’ll tell you how to respond. With violence, so much so that they think their homeland is paradise:-)

[faithhopecharity]

there are over 7 billion people on this planet

she is welcome to apply for admission as an immigrant or for ‘asylum’...from home.

USA has embassy and consulate in her own country, she is welcome to call or visit them there.

anyone attempting to invade or break through our borders will be shot on sight.

[ConservativeWarrior]

What’s he say about sorting out the 95% adult males, many criminals, from the 5% women and children?

I guess we just let all the poison pills in because they forced a few innocents along for the ride?

Trump is gonna win big in 2020 if this is what the leading dems contenders are going with.

[marron]

Is he suggesting that Honduras is a “s***hole country”?

[bert]

Beto is an irrelevant loser

[JBW1949]

And this sorry piece of crap was almost elected....

[C19fan]

He held blames the US for making Honduras a ****hole:

That means addressing effects of our failed past involvement in those countries (in their civil wars, drug trade and drug wars)

[PIF]

Once they enter to “petition” they will disappear unless promptly deported so the whole petition bit is just a ruse to let them it ... liberal “thinking”

[ealgeone]

Hey Beto....what about all the folks around the world in the same situation?

Should we take all of them as well??

[stars & stripes forever]

BETO is FAKE, just like this STAGED PICTURE...

[Beagle8U]

And I should care what this skinny faggot thinks...why?

[rktman]

Hey. Beto's signicant other is hier to boatload of money so I'm thinkin' beat-0 needs to be setting them up. Sharing IS caring right? 💸👍🏼👹

[Sgt_Schultze]

Asylum is for those fleeing specific persecution. These people are not being persecuted by Mexico. They now have NO claim for asylum in the US.

[Slingwing]

Robert needs those voters for the next challenge to Ted. That is the BLUF(Bottom Line Up Front)

[marron]

Two problems. There are 8 million more where they come from. And another hundred million behind them.

They are obviously a danger to one another. That doesn’t give them a right to come here.

[marron]

We prevented Honduras from becoming Venezuela or Cuba.

You’re welcome.

[Doc91678]

Unfortunately, Beto is blowing smoke. We all know that this so called migration is being financed by those who wish America ill.
Why did these people refuse to seek asylum in Mexico? WE should all realize that this is an attack and invasion upon America. Their method is the Cloward-Piven strategy.
