What should be done about the caravan of people coming to the U.S.
#1
This seems to be happening more often so, how can it be stopped?

Do you understand that the people you are referring to are trying to get to America in order to save themselves and their loved ones? Do you really believe that they would risk their life and their children's lives to come here so they can take advantage of America? They risk everything to come here because they have hope and they want a chance to live in a safe place. What do you think they are going to take from you or your family? If I had a way to help them, I would. I'd give them a safe place to live and a job so they could feel productive and support their families.

Good, how would that happen? Does Mexico have any feelings or do they just not care at all?

We need another We are the World type song to get musicians to sing about how we should care about our fellow human beings.

Sadly I care more about those foreigners than my family.

Maybe a NIKE shoe factory complete with a little town next to it so they could have schools, hospitals and their own little community. They could become productive and learn how to become Americans.

Trump says the Democrats wanted this caravan and suggested they even paid Honduran migrants to make the long dangerous trek just before midterms.

I think that's total bullshit rhetoric and he knows it, but it riles up his base. No Democratic strategist or candidate wants a major controversial event with an unpredictable response/outcome just before an election. I'd be highly surprised if the Democrats see the caravan coming now as an advantage.

Anyway, as for what should be done with the migrants...............they should be interviewed and go through the established process, same as always. It's good that Mexico is advising and informing them of the challenges they face before they reach the U.S. this time.

I wish the U.S. would commit to working and negotiating more with the governments of Honduras, Nicaragua, Guatemala, and El Salvador to improve conditions and economic opportunities for the people there. That's the best strategy to address future mass migration from nearby countries, in my view.

It looks like Mexico is doing what some Americans would consider horrible and be the end of their political careers. But I highly doubt it will come to that. Maybe the ones that make it here should go to San Diego and enjoy all the perks that they can be given.

I have no problem with them coming here, get a passport and C'mon down, get a visa and enter and sign in. Whats wrong with that? What is wrong with going the legal route? I really want to know. 

I have not heard a peep from the Democrats on this, are they waiting until Trump deals with it then they can pick apart what he does? I think so. I am also glad that the Mexicans are dealing with this better than they have in the past.

How does one go about doing that when running for their life? Serious question.

It looks like Mexico was able to turn quite a few back, I'm glad they are finally doing something and not letting them just cakewalk here. Trump has a good relationship with Mexico now and hopefully they can become a first world nation and not a second world one in the future. They do have the ability and the money they just need to clean up that pesky corruption crap.

I got this one, even if nobody else did.

One of my all time favorites, with plenty of memorable one-liners.
