We have a sticky thread on the topic if you care to join the discussion. It's right here at the top of the page.

I have a feeling however that that isn't really your objective here.

No it's not. Their objective clearly is propaganda.

If Trump was so honest why isn’t he still talking about the caravans?

We know why.

Well, coverage of the migrant caravan stopped on November 7. Just like coverage of Weiner's laptop stopped November 9, 2016. Just like coverage of Ebola stopped November 5, 2014.

Who is "we?" The media are the ones who stopped talking about it.

Nope. It was dying down before the midterms. The media began to push other stories over this one. Because of that even the chatter in this very thread had begun to die down -- before the midterms.

As soon as the midterms were over, both Fox News & Breitbart stopped covering the caravan.

Before Tuesday, the conservative media was on a mission to convince republicans that this caravan of criminals and "some middle easterners" were coming to "invade" the United States in order to get them off the couch and to go vote.

But now that midterms are over, Breitbart.com does not have a SINGLE article about the caravan on their home page. But on Monday, it was plastered all over the top of Breitbart. Today, nothing about the caravan. https://www.breitbart.com/

Fox News hardly ever covered the caravan yesterday and today. But on Monday and Tuesday? Wall to wall coverage of the caravan.

Sadly, for many of Trump's supporters, they depend on Trump himself and conservative media to tell them what's important.

We get it. You don’t like Trump. Opinion noted. Regardless, there is still an enormous caravan intending to make their way to the States. There are a couple caravans behind it. They are 650 miles from McAllen Texas, currently resting at the aid center that the Mexican gov’t has established for them.

There. Now you’re up to speed. Go hate away.
