Deputize U S. citizens to serve as a volunteer militia. Give them blanket immunity from arrest , in the performance of their militia duties and mission .

I can almost guarantee that if citizens started defending the border themselves, suddenly the State and Federal governments would spring into action.

But it wouldn't be action against the Invaders, it would be action against US citizens.

The US citizens defending the border would be arrested, and if need be, fired upon.

That's how insane things have become.

This is why President Trump should stand up a Federally DEPUTIZED civilian volunteer militia .

IF he would deem to assume full plenary power he can do that .
WE will support him . Trump or death .

Mom and dad tell kid to clean your room or no car. Kid starts cleaning room, parents back down.

Agreed. (I read it.)

The closest I could find was Trump saying we should wait a few days to see how the Mexicans do, trying to block the flood, and that they do seem to be trying. (Paraphrasal)

I think we have a bunch of people on here who just like the sound of their own hyperventilating.

Why is it always about the money and not about the lives saved on BOTH sides of the border? What about the kids? THIS IS BS MR PRESIDENT! Isn’t life more important? In fact, if we cared more about life in the womb, there wouldn’t be an invasion! So what if we have to pay more for JUNK. oh, forget it. I’ll keep my pearls.

A political party going full commie. Invasion with Criminal Intent in progress and growing. Approaching very quickly crisis point. Be watchful, pray for protection, prepare to defend your loved ones.

If you read the article, it doesn’t actually have any support whatsoever for the claim that Trump is backing off.

***********************************************************

He says, “I really wanted to close it”.

I know it’s not an iron clad statement of any sort, but to me that implies that something has happened to change his mind. In any case for him to win on this issue now, one of two things need to happen very soon. The crossings have to stop. Or he actually shuts it down.

This issue is the only one the left has to go after Trump. So he better have a plan because they most certainly do and we see it right before our eyes more and more every day.

I wasn’t sure at first if these were fake threats he was making, or if he makes them then does not follow through. Either way, as a strategy, it is alienating his base.

I cannot believe this POTUS when it comes to immigration.

He has delivered on none of the promises.

Closing the border is in his unilateral power, as are several other consequential policies, but he will not pull the trigger.

He has been deliberately misleading us.
