WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Wednesday the United States could send as many as 15,000 military troops to the border with Mexico, as he hardens his stance against a caravan of migrants fleeing violence and poverty in Central America. The Pentagon has said it has identified about 7,000 active-duty troops, including about 2,000 on standby, that could be deployed to the southern border.

Wow. Good decision.
Unfortunately it all for show. I’m not saying necessarily it won’t work but I have my doubts.
Yes but the question remains will they be helping process or will they be stopping the horde?
Will we be let down again when all is said and done...or is this that finally time that things get done?
Why not low fly overs right now!
Its important to utterly route this invading horde to send a message to the rest of sheetwholedom we insist you go thru legal channels to immigrate here.
Trump is hampered by asylum law I suppose. If they request asylum, I believe they get to enter based on the law. Maybe I’m wrong.
Quick:
What do you call 15,000 US troops heading to the Mexican Border???
A Damn Good Start.
I kinda doubt we’d send 15,000 clerk/typists...
My guess: They’ll stop them, round them all up into the tent camps, then some will gaurd the camps and some will guard the border.
I hope the immigration judges and their staffs will be required to live next to the tent camps (mobile homes, moblie courtrooms) until all are processed.
The US is not required to give asylum since they were originally offered asylum in Mexico and turned it down...
International law states that they must request asylum in the FIRST country outside of their home country...If they don’t, we aren’t required to give it...
The asylum laws do NOT allow for escaping crime or joblessness.
.
Trump may be President of the United States, but he has to defer to our Commander-in-Chief. Somewhere, in an over-funded courtroom in a liberal district, is a black-robed Commander-in-Chief wannabe willing to find out if she/zir/he/they can take and hold that position through judicial fiat. It's not clear who will win that battle.
“International law states that they must request asylum in the FIRST country outside of their home country...If they don’t, we aren’t required to give it”
Interesting if accurate. If that is correct we could stop every last one from setting foot on American soil.
And what is the FIRST country they entered after departing either El Salvador or Honduras?
1. Guatemala, followed Mexico.
Picking a choosing an asylum country is not legitimate.
Whatever it takes.
This MUST be stopped.
How much tear gas and ammo?
I believe it first organized in Guatemala with both Guatemalans and Hondurans...
