Mexico's new president had better halt them before they reach the border, especially before the midterms. This is a Dem tactic to have more 'children in cages.' Optics!

You mean like Obama did and no one cared.

Looks like Trump has a plan to give the parents a choice of separation or staying together.

If they chose separation who's fault will that be other than their own.

Who is stopping you from sending your money to support third world citizens in their own country?

I would rather just leave them alone. No money no bombs.

Cut off all aid to Mexico if they don't stop the invasion force on the way through their country.

That's what I think too. Latin America and Mexico have beautiful landscapes and a bounty of resources. Don't leave, change it.

You don’t actually think they walk all the way from Honduras to the USA .... do you???
They are transported and then Trained in how to get in and get the welfare. It’s well organized by Leftists.
They are recruited.

The only way to do that is the Shut Down the Border .... and that may end up happening.
This Organized Run on the USA Border has to be stopped.

Prepare the minefield, put up some warning signs in various languages so they can’t say they weren’t warned, and televise the resulting fireworks as a pay per view event. I’ll make the popcorn.
