Migrant Caravan Overwhelms Mexican Authorities, Continues March To The US

Just greaaaaaaaaaaat.

According to this, the giant migrant caravan coming from Honduras overwhelmed Guatemalan authorities and Mexican authorities. In other words, the caravan is marching to the United States.

While some of the individuals in the caravan have given up, thousands remain and have vowed to make it to the United States. I’ve seen numbers as little as 2,000 and as big as 7,000.

Saying they weren’t content to wait for authorities to process and admit them in smaller groups, they overcame Mexican police who had been deployed to try to prevent the mass entry.

“We are going to reach the United States,” Erasmo Duarte, a migrant from Danli, Honduras, told The Associated Press. “We couldn’t wait because we had already waited too long and they only told us lies.”

It gets worse. Once the caravan overwhelmed Mexican authorities, they (the authorities) basically put their hands in the air in defeat. They’re letting them journey to the United States.

If you recall, Trump said he would sent the military military to the border if necessary. It’s starting to look like that will be necessary. Think about it. Thousands of people are trying to overwhelm our border and enter our country ILLEGALLY. That’s an invasion, no?

Trump tweeted about the caravan this morning:

Sadly, it looks like Mexico’s Police and Military are unable to stop the Caravan heading to the Southern Border of the United States. Criminals and unknown Middle Easterners are mixed in. I have alerted Border Patrol and Military that this is a National Emergy. Must change laws!

Every time you see a Caravan, or people illegally coming, or attempting to come, into our Country illegally, think of and blame the Democrats for not giving us the votes to change our pathetic Immigration Laws! Remember the Midterms! So unfair to those who come in legally.

Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador were not able to do the job of stopping people from leaving their country and coming illegally to the U.S. We will now begin cutting off, or substantially reducing, the massive foreign aid routinely given to them.

#CaravanInvasion is now trending on Twitter.

We’ll see what happens in the coming days, but NONE of this is OK.
