What do you suggest he do - let everyone in?

If you seek to protect the country and honor the laws in place - what should be done?

Everything is a national emergency in Trump's America. There is nothing he loves more than stoking fear in his base.

Trump tweets, his followers believe, and nothing happens. Lather, rinse, repeat.

You don't have to shoot people to refuse them entry. All other developed nations do it, so why can't we? See what happens if you try to have a mass of people enter Canada, UK, Australia, Japan, China, European countries, etc. ILLEGALLY, and forcibly.

Apparently Trump supporters are perfectly OK with Trump being the laziest president ever elected because many of you post threads bragging about how massive the crowds are at his weekly rallies and how popular Trump is as if he is still a reality TV star rather than the president of the United States with actual work to do. You and millions of other voters chose a bobble headed Homecoming King for president, and it's all you and other Trump voters' fault he is accomplishing nothing. Talk is cheap, and POTUS is full of that, for sure.
Trump has accomplished more in two years than Obama in eight years. And republicans in Congress are often what blocks Trump, not cheerleading him.
You are so broadly misinformed in so many areas I’d sincerely like to ask what age bracket you are in.
I am serious in asking this, not trying to insult you.

I think they are going to force Trump into making this an ugly scene.

The invaders are now up beyond 7,200 in number.

Default Mexico is destroying US/Mexico relations by allowing the caravan

to parade through their country?

Can you imagine the outrage if 4000 Canadians wanted to illegally enter Mexico, and we just let them cut through the US to do it?

Mexico needs to step up if they want to salvage relations, as bad as they are now, its going to get alot worse

A group of 800 people that will be blocked at the border is a national emergency?
