The Migrant Caravan Swells To 14,000

This is horrifying. We can’t just ignore this. This is a huge problem.

You know about the first migrant caravan that totally overwhelmed authorities in Guatemala and Mexico? Remember how it started with 1,500-2,000 people? Then it grew to 4,000? Then 7,000?

Here’s a disturbing update: It has DOUBLED. We’re now looking at a group of 14,000 people, and that doesn’t even include the SECOND migrant caravan of 1,000+ people right behind it.

Members of the illegal immigrant caravan chanted “si se pudo!” as they made their way north through Mexico Monday, having defied the will of one country and vowing to test the spine of another, the U.S., very soon.

The chant, which translates roughly as “Yes we could,” is a takeoff on the “Si se puede” — Yes we can! — cheer that immigrant-rights activists have used for years, and which the Obama campaign co-opted in 2008.

That INFURIATES me. Look at the entitlement mentality there. Yes you can WHAT? Totally disregard immigration laws and enter countries illegally? NO. No you CANNOT. The US better stand strong on this one. Other countries caved like wussies, but we sure as heck shouldn’t.

At this point, we don’t have a solid idea of how the Trump administration is going to handle this.

We are a great Sovereign Nation. We have Strong Borders and will never accept people coming into our Country illegally!

Stripping foreign aid to the countries that allowed the caravan to pass through is one thing, but we have to do something if thousands of unchecked people try to rush our border. They have no right to come into this country illegally, period.
