Agree.

Ted Cruz is running as a slimy yankee’s bitch.

Also, trump can only fill a stadium in Texas the same way he gets people to agree to sex with him, by paying for it. They are paying people to fill the seats for the many thousands of tickets they couldn’t give away.

Since the caravan of migrants, most of whom are from the Northern Triangle countries of El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, reached Mexico late last week, its numbers have reportedly swollen to include more than 7,000 people.

The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) is currently on the ground in Mexico assisting authorities in ensuring that migrants have access to the country’s asylum system.

The United States is also a signatory. And while Mexico is required to offer protection for refugees under international law, migrants have no obligation to request it there. If migrants like those traveling in the caravan that began in Honduras want to seek asylum in the United States, they have the right to try, says Doris Meissner, the director of the U.S. Immigration Policy Program at the Migration Policy Institute

7000 in this caravan, and when 'open borders' America accepts them...the next one could be 30,000, then 70,000, then 170,000.

Bambu you have perfectly described a good important humanitarian system as it aught to work.

Unfortunately there are some fascists here throwing a hissy fit to distract from their ongoing commission of crimes.

It was only a matter of time.
I'm surprised it didn't happen much earlier.

Wait til all the folk in Central America/Sth America/ Mexico/Cuba/West Indies etc watch the caravaners walk right into USA [to be supported by US taxpayers...likely forever in many cases] and set up house [paid for by US taxpayers]...the floodgates will open for sure and certain...as happened in Europe, Australia etc.

As a signatory of the 1951 Refugee Convention and 1967 Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees, Mexico is obligated to protect people who are outside of their country and afraid to return due to a well-founded fear of persecution based on religion, race, nationality or membership to a particular social or political group.

It's no longer 1951 or 1967.

Mr Trump said Democrats were "encouraging millions of illegal aliens to break our laws, violate our borders and overwhelm our nation".

Well there you go.

Trump could rule a nation of Bambi’s right into the ground. The Bambis would stand around bleating as they are shorn, slaughtered and cooked. It wouldn’t even be sad.

In America, under presidents who support prosperity, we take in immigrants, the work hard and support the economy and the treasury letting the nation support its dead weight, by which I mean Red and Kid.

This is very foreign to you, a denizen of a third world kacktocracy, but if you avoid fox, trump, and other fleecers of invalids you might be able to find some of the better information out there.

Not to be too depressing, but it doesn’t make any difference. The press won’t question Trump about it and he would just lie about it if they did. It’s all just part of the Trump show. People seen yelling and cheering for Trump on the morning news. That’s what’s important.

He's still waiting for that big check to arrive from Mexico in order to get it built. Every day, out to the mailbox and no check. Where could it be?

---Poll: immigration has become the No. 1 issue for voters in 2018
A new Pew poll finds immigration has overtaken health care and the economy as a top 2018 issue.---

HRC made it the centerpiece in her failed run for the presidency while the Donald pushed for the "wall".

Open borders seems a liberal elitist add-on that is anti-union, makes national security more difficult and burdens the social net. It does not play well in middle America. The ones hurt most would be the laborers at the bottom of the economic ladder. Not a concern for HRC or Nancy Pelosi who get their nannies and cheap veggies.

Yup!

The man who encourages mobs and violence and who breaks our laws and treaties points fingers at others to accuse them of what he does.

No news, including that you take his word for it, ignoring all the evidence to the contrary and excusing him his violations.

Perhaps even faster than Redd and Kiid.
