” I have no objection to people getting asylum who really need it”

If a million people apply for asylum for a legitimate reason, we can’t grant it to all of them.

And of course, the RATS will go nuts about Trump interfering with their voter base machine....

Tough frijoles!

Excellent. This isn’t a football game, where if you get a finger over the goal line you score. Screw that noise! What makes this country great, besides the essential compassion of its people, is that we are a nation of laws. Get rid of that, and the whole thing falls apart - and we elected DJT to be POTUS because we do not have to, and do not want to, stand by while that happens.

GOOD!

Dems: You can’t stop the caravan, they are seeking asylum and the law says you have to give them a hearing!

Trump: Oh, you mean this law that I can change unilaterally with an Executive Order?

[Sam Gamgee]

So the only thing that could stop this quickly is federal judge shopping? Could Congress veto this decision with a majority vote?

Prediction: You are not going to see any more “migrant caravans” over the next two years.

There will still be caravans, but they will not be covered by the press as they were leading up to the election. October's caravans were political theater. Now, the mission is to keep pushing more migrants into the USA to create leftist voters. The press will do as they are told and keep quiet until more theater is needed.

What is the latest news on the “caravans”??? Haven’t heard anything since the elections...

***The president has also said he would sign an executive order ending birthright citizenship for children born in the U.S. to illegal immigrants, a proposal legal scholars say would be unconstitutional***

Johnathan Turley got this right the other night on FNC - it is a brilliant move to force a SCOTUS decision on the 14th Amendment. Naturally, the MSM got it all wrong in order to label DJT 'stupid', 'tyrant', 'dictator' etc. etc. etc.

The MSM really is making itself the enemy of the American people! ...by refusing to properly inform them.

They have outlived their usefulness to the left, and further media coverage would only hurt the cause. I suspect they are mostly being abandoned. The caravans are dissolving into smaller groups. Some will stay in Mexico, some will go home, some will attempt to enter the USA illegally. Very, very few will attempt to apply for asylum at a point of entry. All just assumptions on my part.

a directive - I worry that Trump’s orders will be erased as quickly as he erased Obama’s orders. Time for Congress to get moving.

This is true. Thirty years ago when I was working for home builders here in New Jersey the first wave of this garbage came and worked in the industry, driving down wages in the process. This allowed companies like Hovnanian and Toll Brothers to flourish. They would bring along their always pregnant mamsitas who would be pushing out kids faster then fleas breed because they quickly learned more kids meant more welfare. After the housing boom basically ended in 2006 the second wave of this garbage found out they could make just as much of a subsistence level existence, far better then anything in their home countries by just sitting on their ass and not working. The whole idea of sending back remittances fell away because they told the rest of the family to come on up because the gringos gave you everything free and you didn't need to work. These people really are garbage. They HATE us, they feel, for what ever stupid reason that We The People Of The United States owe them all of this. I despise these people.

So I wonder how long it will be before some liberal judge declares that Pres. Trump’s executive order that says unless you ask for asylum at a legal port of entry it will not be granted is unconstitutional.
