It only died down after the midterms. Every single night Trump was out beating the same old drum about illegals before that. And if the midterms were next week, he'd be out tonight at some rally, screaming about illegals pouring into this county, despite the CA shooting. Because what happens to the citizens of this country mean nothing to him when he needs his narcissistic fix.

It’s been reported by several sources that the migrants are resting in Mexico City, and plan to spend a week or two there in the soccer stadium that the gov’t has purposed for them. The caravan has not fallen apart or disappeared.

Read the post of mine just above yours and the one immediately below yours. So you were saying?

But they weren't right on the border like Trump was intimating? Geez, imagine that. SMH.

After months and months of conservative news stations, websites, and political commercials pounded us with "caravan updates" and how America was in danger of invasion.....

NOW THAT THE MIDTERMS ARE OVER, I haven't heard hardly anything about it. Breitbart's home page was littered with "caravan" articles, but now, there's not a single story about the caravan anywhere on the Breitbart homepage. I even did a "find on page" in my internet browser for "caravan"....zero results. Looks for yourselves: https://www.breitbart.com/

Fox News has just one article on the caravan, it's an editorial off to the side. But scroll down the ENTIRE Fox News page, over 100 clickable articles/stories. Only 1 editorial link about the caravan. Look for yourselves: https://www.foxnews.com/


So in other words, before the midterms, conservative outlets and political commercials wanted to convince people that a group of "killer migrants who were going to invade America." But as soon as the midterms are over, Fox News, Breitbart, etc now aren't even covering the caravan anymore, because it's a nothing burger.

The numbers of the caravan have already dwindled from 10,000 - 12,000 down to about 2,000....and expected to be less than 1,000 once it reaches the US southern border.

Your ever-present anger and endless snark are extremely unappealing traits. You seem wholly incapable of having a conversation without resorting to nastiness. What a crummy way to go through life.

Mexican officials claim there are 4,500 migrants currently in the soccer stadium in Mexico City. That's as of yesterday. With other caravans approaching, that number will rise. Perhaps you can cite where you got the figure of 2,000 from, if you don't mind.
