If I am Mexico's PR arm, I say "hey, let's make a show of stopping a caravan, then the silly Americans will think we mean business, and then we'll go right back to what we were (not) doing."

Gonna take more than one incident to show they are serious.

"hey, let's make a show of stopping a caravan, then the silly Americans will think we mean business, and then we'll go right back to what we were (not) doing." BINGO! All for show, hoping Trump gets this news item to make him THINK they're serious.
WE. KNOW. BETTER.

There are two levels of ‘authority’ in Mexico. There’s the elected government, and the drug cartels. I think if the US went to an intense border control and made max effort for a month to control/stop drug flow, and just hint that it’ll continue unless the caravans halt....then the cartels would ensure they stop. That’s probably the more effective way of handling this episode.
To: bitt
Sounds like the price of an E ticket to the US border is going to increase dramatically.

“If I am Mexico’s PR arm, I say “hey, let’s make a show of stopping a caravan, then the silly Americans will think we mean business, and then we’ll go right back to what we were (not) doing.” “
That’s why the tariffs should go on and escalate for a few months ( let them get u to at least 15%), so that the Mexican Government can get a good idea of just how bad it is going to get for them if they fail to interdict the migrants. Ditto for their own citizens.
And an escalating tax on remittances following the same scale ( i.e. starting at 5% on Monday as well). When the Beaners see that we can and will wreck their economy, they will get busy and stop this nonsense.

Ted Cruz is a useless d!ck! It’s really too bad Texas didn’t replace him with someone who isn’t a weasel. Now the country has to put up with him for six more years. Just hope they replace Cornholio next year.

I asked myself that question too. Then I went to the US Senate webpage and sent Ted an email and asked for a response. We shall see.

So, are they turning them around or just holding them until the buses arrive?

Americans should buy 'speeches' from military contractors, intelligence thugs, State Department pretentious fops, and other assorted 'elites' in DC - - to get our military to protect OUR borders. It works for Arabs
Tricky stuff - - paying legal bribes... But it's our best shot at getting protection for our borders. Anyone know how much does it costs to buy Nancy Pelosi?

More likely, the military, aka cartel, held the caravan until the passage toll was paid.
