Trump has already issued a statement to the Gov. of Honduras and others that if they do not stop the caravan then they will face loss of further funding.


Trump wrote. "We have today informed the countries of Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador that if they allow their citizens, or others, to journey through their borders and up to the United States, with the intention of entering our country illegally, all payments made to them will STOP (END)!"





My question is who is funding these caravans? How can 1500 people walk thousands of miles with small children? What do they drink, eat, where do they go the bathroom? Are there buses to shuttle them along?

Imagine the mess they would leave if they were to march down your street?


Why are they leaving their country in the first place? Who is encouraging them? Who is organizing them? Who is paying for their supplies?



Politically speaking I have a feeling that this group will be reaching America the day before the mid terms and how they are handled (the Dems) are hoping poorly ie. splitting up families again and this mess will be fresh on the minds of voters as they head to the polls.



What a mess.
They've trying Russia

They've tried taxes

They've tried porn stars

They've tried mental health

They've tried racist

They've tried Melania disappeared

They've tried Michael Cohen

They've tried the "poor kids at the border"

They've tried to destroy Kavenagh

They are organizing this large invasion from Mexico with women and children on the frontlines

They're now conveniently planting bombs at the home of the Democrat trinity ....Obama , Hillary and Bill



Dems will stop at nothing!!

I guess you missed it.

So far they have taken 11 days to walk from Guatemala to the Mexico/Gautemala border...that's about 142 hours.

The caravan started small -- not all the folks started at the beginning....joined along the way.

Good information including a map of where they have traveled.

Again - -folks are helping - -humanitarian groups that help every caravan that has traveled.

oh stop it.....you think they had help along the way. You don't know anymore than I do.

Except two days letter they are 26 miles . away from where they arrived on the 22nd.

If someone is driving them -- they are going at a snail's pace.

And you are so blinded by your bias, you didn't read my last sentence.

Humanitarian groups are handing out water, locals and other groups are giving rides.

There is not any evidence to support your claims.

There are lots of folks trying to prove it -- but no hard evidence...just a whole lot of myths.

Did you see how slow those trucks were going? You could walk faster.
