those caravans are filling up all the states of America.. 1000 coming over the border a day.. they come to vote for their interests... they have fake Id's and carry voter registration cards.. YOu really don't think there are really that many socialists that live here do you? Of course the illegals will vote illegally. The come over the border illegally . So what is the difference.. They have invaded the voting stations too.

I don't understand why some people go right to the extremes when making comments.



Illegal immigration is a problem for America that costs us in so many ways.

If we were to break up the caravan and put them into categories we would have a percentage that are seeking asylum/ refugee status for the right reasons and they will go on to become contributing members in our society. They will continue to love their homeland but they will embrace their new country with their hearts and minds.

There is also a cross section of this caravan that are coming for the wrong reasons. They are coming to exploit our systems and take advantage of our generosity. They are coming to deal drugs and death because that is the only skill they have to share.



I know that these are 2 extreme examples and there are plenty of people in the caravan that fall somewhere in the middle but we need to be careful with what type of person is allowed into the country.

Shoot, I might as well join them in the tents so I can get free healthcare, food and shelter. I'm tired of working for all these things these immigrate asylum seekers are getting for free, LOL.
your right, but I was talking just to take care of them, once they leave them in and they will leave them in....
but for the long term, yes, millions....billions....

I wonder now that the Dems have taken back the House how they will respond to the caravan and the others that are sure to follow and how they will respond towards anything that Trump proposes to stop these people at the border (preferably before they get in)...

They will respond just like before. It's no big deal to them and in fact are probably looking forward to the future voters that will come from that caravan. They will do everything within their power to see that these people get admitted into our country. I'm sure they don't want catch and release ended either.

Donald Trump only motivated voters to get out and VOTE against him with his cross country campaign stops.

They have a say? I thought Trump ran this country all by himself. He sure acts like it.

Where's the caravan? Is there a caravan anymore? Of course it disappeared. It will reappear once Trump needs to ratchet up the fear. Trump knows his base will tremble just by mentioning: Caravan!

Yeah, don't think I've heard him mention the caravan all day. Why, those people could be crossing over tonight while we sleep!
