It's bogus, as I noted earlier, first it was ISIS in the Caravan, then M13, then we need troops, then more troops, and now, end birthright citizenship. Trump is getting nervous, as much as he tries, he still can't sell fear and anxiety by demonizing this Caravan

And the irony is that he campaigned on the exact same issue, bought it up continuously, but when in office, did absolutely nothing about it, never asked for or introduced any legislation regarding birthright citizenship

All true.. Trump thrives on chaos.

lack of immigration reform puts us in this stupid position of having to let an invading caravan claim asylum.

I would literally pull a Joe Arapiao here and stick them all in tents for their so called due process.

Actually I would send US troops 20 miles into Mexico and claim national security and disperse them.
Maybe next time Mexico would enforce it's border too

That article is worth reading in full. It gives some idea what kind of ignorant dickhead now represents America to the world.


Linda Chavez, a former Reagan administration official ... said in a statement that Trump's effort to strip newborns of immigrants of their citizenship "exposes the depths of his contempt for our Constitution."

She also commented on its timing, arguing, "The President's motives are purely political -- hoping to stir up his anti-immigrant base in advance of next week's midterm election."

Peaceful people seeking asylum in the legal manner

[anatta]

Peaceful people seeking asylum in the legal manner

only at points of entry. not illegal crossings

and don't be dense -these are economic migrants not political refugees seekikg asylum from persecution.
They said as much ( of course bleeding heart US lawyers will coach them to lie otherwise)

They will only approach at legal points of entry and seek asylum.

"they said as much"? when and to whom?
