What should be done about the caravan of people coming to the U.S.
#68
Well, it's not 'The Wall' that Trump promised his supporters, but it is a fence on the California / Mexico border.  It's 30 feet high and 2 miles long.

Maybe it will motivate more Republicans to vote week after next, which is one of the reasons for this quick new construction, in my opinion.

Sporting a plaque that boasted President Donald Trump's name, it marks the first phase of a wall to block migrants from entering the US.

Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen inaugurated the Calexico site in Imperial City, California yesterday.  Nielsen also called for more funding for the wall Friday as the US was 11 days away from the mid-term elections.

Further confirming the migrants will not be welcome, the Pentagon approved a request for additional troops at the southern border. It means there could be 800 to 1,000 joining the nearly 2,000 National Guard troops currently on the border.
