Democrats and Children harmed the most.

Among those who have been dissuaded, at least for now, is Natali, 32, who asked to be identified only by her first name because she feared for her safety. Speaking from her modest apartment atop a steep hill in western Tijuana, she explained that she and her husband had fled their home in El Progreso, Honduras, after she witnessed a murder carried out by a local criminal gang. Soon after, she began to receive threats in the mail warning her to keep quiet.

Once in Mexico, they heard about the increasingly long odds of receiving asylum in the United States, and feared more than anything that officials there would return them to their home country. Rather than crossing the border, they decided to seek humanitarian visas to remain in Mexico legally for at least one year, and have slowly begun to build a life.

She still believes she might ask for asylum in the United States, but is realistic about her chances. “I like Tijuana,” she said. “It’s a very pretty city and there’s a lot of work.” More than anything, she fears the United States would deport her back to Honduras.

Work in Tijuana ... she speaks the local language ... safe from Honduran criminals. Sounds like a legitimate refugee who is in an appropriate spot.

Best election, best POTUS, evah!

MAGA!!! Finish the wall!!

A huge powerful wall will protect our borders.

It will also serve as a powerful deterrent, sending the message loud and clear: “Don’t even THINK about sneaking in illegally!”

[DoughtyOne]

Where did people get the idea that if things were tough in their own country, that we somehow owed them a fix for it?

Fix your own nation folks. Leave us the heck alone.

[Fresh Wind]

Boo f’n hoo.

[magna carta]

Trump is finessing the art of quick rebar/razor wire impediments. He needs to keep it up and get even better

[M. Thatcher]

Maybe Trump’s many, many FR enemies will STHU for ten minutes.

We need a powerful Jedi like Yoda to mind control them: “This isn’t the country you’re looking for”. “Go home, band together, and fight, kill, torture the bad guys; whatever it takes to get rid of the gangs”.

How many have been granted asylum since November 2018? Why don’t we have those numbers? And while youre at it, throw in the numbers of H1B visas since then.
Let’s have the whole story, not this whitewashed crap.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Good..I want these cockroaches to go back where they came from. The second they come to the border, tell them to turn their asses around! They are NOT coming here for a better life, they are coming here for the FREE Govt goodies they are promised by the Dems, food stamps, welfare, free housing, education, etc..and Dems ask in return ONE thing..their vote

[RoseofTexas]

TOTAL BS!!! They are trying to down play the NE declaration and the crisis on the border!! Move along nothing to see here... Let the brainwashing commence!! Where is Baghdad bob when you need him!!! Perfect meme!!

[sphinx]

The dems will claim this is more voter suppression by Trump.

[JBW1949]

“...dealing President Trump an apparent win after a humbling week for his immigration agenda...”

Exactly what was “humbling” about the week????

[eaglestar]

They were ordered to turn back before the wall construction begins so the left can make the false case that there is no Emergency.

[Elsie]

With Trump’s Tough Deterrents, Many Asylum Seekers on the Border are Giving Up

I guess Mexico will keep them then.

[RooRoobird20]

A huge strong wall sends a very strong message of deterrence.

DETERRENCE is compassionate. DETERRENCE is NONVIOLENT.

A border wall is compassionate and nonviolent!!!

[hal ogen]

Good. Go back to your sh**hole countries that you have already ruined. If you come here illegally you will be shunned, harassed and despised...and hopefully arrested.
