I am watching the Democrat Party led (because they want Open Borders and existing weak laws) assault on our country by Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, whose leaders are doing little to stop this large flow of people, INCLUDING MANY CRIMINALS, from entering Mexico to U.S..... ....In addition to stopping all payments to these countries, which seem to have almost no control over their population, I must, in the strongest of terms, ask Mexico to stop this onslaught - and if unable to do so I will call up the U.S. Military and CLOSE OUR SOUTHERN BORDER!..
This time they’re bringing their kids to dump on the border....that’s the plan even if the parents can’t get here. In other words they’re using their kids as a battering ram then they’ll return once theirs a change in the administration....in their minds.
I love this guy!
And Bravo for Trump!
“countries south of the border are taking steps”
BS Mexico & other SA countries are more than happy to send their unemployable people somewhere else.
There has to be a line in the sand & if ANYONE will find it and use it, Trump will.
IMO, these invaders with their arrogance are only getting funding for the WALL accelerated.
Re: your post 5 - no, that would be the current saracen and african invasion going on in Europe.
NOTE: The DOA Senate Immigration “Reform” Bill Protected Crooked Latino
Public Officials in US govt positions from prosecution for wrongdoing in elective and appointive office.
I have zero empathy for those in this caravan......none! It’s a fast track ahead of all the others who have tried to get here claiming asylum the right way. .......they have bee convinced storming our borders, using their kids, is the magic fairy dust paving the way...that they have a right to a life that prospers...even though they won’t fight for that in their own.
If it were the Mexican Army moving North with the stated intention of crossing the border and retaking Texas, would we be talking about cost?
“...the military will not use “force”, the optics would be unsavory. I call B S.”
It’s far from BS.
The advantage of having a powerful military is not in using it, but in willingness to use it.
Peace through strength works only if the enemy is convinced that the commander in chief is willing to use military might.
Of course it is bad politics to use the military! That’s why a cowardly POTUS will avoid it at all cost. That’s why a cowardly POTUS is unable to convince an adversary that military force is truly on the table. That’s why a cowardly POTUS is unable to enforce peace through strength.
Ironically, the cowardly POTUS is more likely to go to war than a strong POTUS - because peace through strength is peace - not war.
Trump is signaling that he is willing to use military strength - regardless of the political consequences.
You can call BS if you want - if you think Trump is bluffing - but ask yourself this: if Trump wants his military threats to be credible, why would he draw a line in the sand if he was not willing to follow through?
Doing so would establish him as an empty threat,with the whole world watching.
I would bet that Trump has already worked this out with the Mexican President prior to making this threat - we will see it n a few weeks, but I expect Trump will win this showdown one way or another - and come out looking strong.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That would put the USA in one heck of an economic tailspin
So make an example out of the smaller central American countries.
Judges have NO right to tell the POTUS he can NOT protect our country!!!

These dirtbags should be charged with felony child endangerment in absentia. When they show up in the USA Club Fed awaits.
BTW, this is the most beautiful headline I’ve ever seen on freerepublic and I’ve been here for 21 years.
Looking strong is one thing. Actually stopping the border rushes is another. Lucy’s football bit is over for many of us.
That would be a perfect time for Trump to say FU, take it to the Supremes.
And, why’ll they’re at it, get some solid opinions on the limits of power of lower court judges to interfere with the President or to re-write laws.
The Congressional Hispanic Caucus are open borders.....they will and do oppose Trump at every turn....
Yes, please do it. There’s a massed brigade of foreign invaders attacking out border. Stop ‘em, dammit.
