He does if they cross the border. Or try.

You missed the point. Trump needs to get his ass in gear and start deporting more than a few thousand per year of those 22,000,000 illegal aliens and he needs to stop fucking around talking about stopping a Caravan. But talking for Trump is effortless while arresting people and deporting them will force Trump to exert himself. He might even have to breakout in a sweat from the effort to run a large program that deports 22,000,000. Maybe Ivanka Trump can do the work for her dad?

I see it as a test of Trump and the GOP's authenticity. I think they won't do it. They will talk. They will blame the Democrats. They will pretend they are doing the best they can. They will stall, because there is an advantage to the GOP to have this "problem" around. Talking about the problem of illegal aliens helps the GOP to win elections. Actually solving the problem, which is well within their capacity to do, would be work that the GOP wants to shirk.

why do you think Fox and Trump are so focused on this caravan and making up so many lies about it if it doesn't help them in the midterms?- GSTRING

Of course it helps them in the mid-terms.- SIGNY

et voila! *clap clap clap*- GSTRING

I don't need your disingenuous congratulations which imply that you caused me to "see the light", especially since I posted about it BEFORE you did.

Quote:

At least, until pictures get splashed across news outlets of little children looking up the barrel of a gun. That may be why there appears to be some urgency to get those people to the border BEFORE the elections. I already addressed that too. I'll repost what I posted earlier, since you seem to have a hard time reading with comprehension.- SIGNY

My bad - I know it must seem like I have all day to review your posts and find all the stuff you reference. Sadly, I do not.- GSTRING

Well, your lack of knowledge sure didn't prevent you from getting all accusatory, did it?
Quote:

In terms of ^, I think you are mistaken if you think live fire ammo is getting anywhere near those immigrants for the reasons you stated. Trump is full of bluff and bluster and lies are his ammo.
It depends.

Now, I'm not sure which party this "caravan" serves best. The Dem base is about as fired up as it can be; but the Repub base - which might not be as "fired up" as Dems - might actually be activated by this issue.- SIGNY

The Dems are more fired up about Health Care, at least in recent polls. All I see them fired up about regarding the caravan is all the lies that Trump and Fox and others are trying to spread about it. Yanno, the blatant fear mongering. And g@ddamnit, with Trump's barely literate following it's working! GSTRING

Is it having an effect on "no party preference"?

There were early vids of someone passing *something* out to people lining up top make the march

It was money.
Quote:

and of course Fox said it was Soros cash (or maybe Hillary/Obama), when later reports found out it wasn't.
If they found out that it "wasn't" Soros/Hillary/Obama cash, then surely they must have some idea where it came from. So, where did it come from?
Quote:

Ok, if you're not for illegal immigration, what do you think should be done to limit it?- SIGNY

I honestly don't know and don't have many good guesses.- GSTRING

OK, how about this?

Harden the border.
Instead of taking illegal migrants into custody (where we become responsible for their board and care) just deport them back into Mexico.
For those who come thru official border crossings, take them into custody. Give parents the option of sending their kids elsewhere or keeping their children with them (therefore, they are not being "detained" because they have the option of leaving.)

Sweep the nation for illegal aliens. Deport any that you find, and if you find them at a workplace, fine their employer. Heavily. Once you've done that sweep, do it again, and then again, and keep on doing it until you stop finding so many illegal aliens.

Give those with American children the option of taking their children with them back to wherever they came from, or sending them elsewhere.

Revert the definition of "refugee" back to the original definition, which mean POLITICAL refugee. Most people who ask for asylum aren't fleeing because of political violence but because their nations are clusterfucks.

Or, you can do the 5-point program that I suggested earlier.

What do you think is the point in deporting for the 5th time another Criminal without an effective Border to complicate their return?

What if the Fines for Em

Sounds like the GoP should thank NYC, SanFran, and all Sanctuary Cities for multiplying crimes rates to help GoP to win Elections.

I am perfectly okay with Trump enforcing the laws against illegal immigration. Perfectly fine. He is NOT doing that. He has 11 to 22 million illegal aliens within the U.S. and he has no plan to remove them all. No plan to even remove 1 million. Instead, he is concentrating his mind on Guatemalans walking in Mexico. (I would love to see Trump deport as few as 7,000 of those millions of illegal aliens in the week before the election, about the same number in the Caravan. All the laws permit Trump to do it.)

Trump is concentrating on pleasing or pandering to a bunch of fat, ignorant weirdos: I got a very big sample of confused and blurry thinking of Republicans, yesterday, at Houston Methodist Orthopedics and Sports Medicine in Baytown. The fat old white Texans were telling each other that MS-13 was about to come into town and murder them, except Trump and the military were the only thing stopping those killers. (Oh, the Caravan is bringing diseases, too, according to this sample of Republican voters.)

Signym, get a clue that 38,000 for a year is a much smaller number than 22,000,000. 38,000 is a routine number. Trump needs to raise that number to 22,000,000. He has the law with him. His lack of a plan is stopping him. It is as if he does NOT want to do the job Signym elected him to do. Instead, Trump wants to arrest 7,000 Hondurans walking in Mexico. He does not have the law with him to do that.
