In the twisted sick world of the left, Obama will somehow get credit for this.
Yep, think about it. Democrat was the party of slavery, Jim Crow laws, and the KKK, terrorizing blacks and whites sympathetic to blacks in an attempt to prevent them from voting Republican and they call Republicans racist? LOL, you can't make this stuff up. Only in liberal land.
Who knew all Democrats needed was hypocrisy, projection and name calling to get what they want.
IMO, 40% fewer crossings of late would mean that since Trump is cracking down on illegal immigration internally that illegal aliens are more afraid to come here. I don't know how anyone could take it any other way.
He hasn't cracked down on anything. I support enforcing the borders but simply signing your name to a piece of paper is NOT going to do this.

Democrats, Liberals, Progressives have learned that the truth does not matter, it's what is perceived to be the truth that matters. Politicians and liberal media spin the truth to fit what they want the people to believe. As Mika (Democrat) said, it's their job to tell people what to think.
And you're using that as some sort of justification that's Trump's strategy is effectively deterring something that has been declining since 2000...
Are you going to give Trump credit for something that started 17 years ago?
Trump's strategy is a blip in the short-term, pointless in the long-term.
So, again, Trump hasn't done dick.
Illegal crossing apprehension PEAKED in 2000 and has been decreasing ever since. Shortly after 2000 the U.S. erected hundreds of miles of border fences, added surveillance gear and doubled the number of Border Patrol agents: secure fence act of 2006 and secure fence act of 2008. A `70% decrease in the number of apprehensions from 2000 to 2015. In one month there has been a 40% decrease in the number of apprehensions. There have been various factors related to the decreases, increased employment in Mexico, increased unemployment in the US, lower Mexican birthrate, the building of boarder fences and and increased surveillance so of course its not all Trump but you are in denial if you think his tough policy on illegal immigration and a 40% decrease over one month is dick.
No I don't but one doesnt need to in order to understand what has actually been happening. Spewing out little one line jabs does not lend to your credibility.
Great you and your fellow "winners" will now be able to get and take all those cushy jobs these folks have been doing at or less than minimum wage. Enjoy and don't forget the sunscreen!
Uh; MOST jobs done by illegal aliens USED to be done by Americans and legal aliens. So wages will have to back UP and, dirty employers DON'T dare cheat us cause we've got rights and WILL fight back through the legal system. I like that idea.
The scenario was a future president that doesn't lock the door.
That'll be a few years down the road. Maybe 4, maybe 8, hell maybe 16 years or longer. By then; Mexico's pop will be getting old and FAST cause it's birthrate's about 2 kids per woman in 2017
Do you believe that smugglers honestly price the cost of illegal immigration?
Emphasis on the word "honestly".
2 words: supply and demand. If illegal immigration from Mexico dropped like a rock cause Mexicans were quite happy staying home, the coyotes would HAVE to either cut their prices OR their kind will start killing each other to stay in business.
