Asshole Trump is CAUSING 11YR high in IMMIGRANT SURGE as 'fear' of border shut down!!

[Centerleftfl]

3 thoughts here. 1 PARTISAN, albeit obvious. The dumbass is giving the best 'SALES POINTS' to use by the 'COYOTES' towards the 'scared'. 'Get out now, we don't know what TRUMP is going to do.' 'They could put the wall up tomorrow.' 'We can get you out but you must hurry!'

2 'non partisan' thoughts. If Trump is so crazed about the asylum status seekers how come he NEVER mentions it. Undoing it? Or even talking about it? Why doesn't he use an exec order for that one? Seriously, I have no idea why this is a given and not negotiable. I never hear anyone talk about it. It is genesis in Geneva, NAFTA, UN mandated human rights? Trump never lets other legal impediments get in his way, why does he leave this one alone?

How 'quiet', how invisible could it possibly be that these coyotes can amass groups and no one can STOP THEM? Are the feeder countries encouraging it? Get them out so we don't have to feed them? Are government officials being paid off in bribes to look the other way? It's one thing for small groups to be moved but a truckload or a walking carvan? These are highly visible movements. We can't surveillance and tell the 'exporting' countries who/what is on the move? OR is there fear they will be killed if we do that? Is it word of mouth? Do they put up signs, flyers, advertise in local 'papers'? Anyone know their methods?

Thoughts?

trump says this is a national emergency, which he is attempting to manufacture/exploit it.....

But what are the facts??

How many people are crossing the border illegally?

It's impossible to say for certain but apprehensions made by US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents provide one measure.
CBP made a total of 396,579 apprehensions on the south-western border in fiscal year 2018, and 303,916 in 2017.
The number had fallen dramatically in President Trump's first year but rose again last year.

Looking at the wider picture, there has been a sharp fall in the number of people arrested in the last 18 years.

So, is there a current "crisis" of illegal immigration on the southern border?
"No," says Jacinta Ma, director of policy and advocacy for the National Immigration Forum, which advocates on behalf of immigrants.
"Even with the rise in apprehensions over the last year, it's way down from the early 2000s."

Looks good. Can't wait to see 2019 data.

Everyone knows this now! Apprehensions are down. Now is that because he is PATHETICIALLY ineffective and put his mouth and resources where they are doing the least good? Frankly, I'm thinking it is because this is a new class of immigrants--asylum seekers. They aren't apprehended.

In the meantime while he is FUCKING AROUND with walls that are going "to stop invasions", the 'invaders' simply walk up to an entry point and are received. HE GETS IT! But he CAN'T SELL IT!

So again I ask, what is going to do to stop LEGAL ASYLUM SEEKERS? Not a word is spoken about it!! Not by him. I will assume FOX. Not on these boards. His base doesn't have a clue!

Why do you support people breaking the laws? Don't you want to know the medical history, criminal history, or mental history of immigrants? Do you want a pandemic, or a rapist/murderer, or crazy folks admitted to the country? Oh...I get it now. It's the crazy folks. You NEED them for your party.

Now it makes sense!

And YOU and idiots like refuse to answer the QUESTION!! Trump could order the border patrol NOT TO LET THEM IN WHEN THEY WALK UP TO THE FENCE OR ENTRY POINT SEEKING ASYLUM! He is letting them IN! Why doesn't he do his BADASS 'edicts' and say NO! Why doesn't he sign an exec order and let it go up the courts? Why won't he do that? What's he AFRAID of?

ANSWER THE FUCKING QUESTION! I've been asking it for weeks!
