What should be done about the caravan of people coming to the U.S.
#23
It's particularly challenging when large groups of migrant amnesty seekers attempt to enter the country at the same time.  

That puts a strain on border patrol, processing, housing, and immigration courts when the size of the group is beyond the expectation.    

Then again, the caravans led by migrant activists are much safer for those making the long hard trek than traveling alone or in small groups, though the optics of such a large group sure does work to fan the flames for anti-immigrant politicians and pundits.

The approaching caravan, just before the midterms, is a big benefit to Trump and the Republicans politically, in my opinion.  And, they're doing a good job of exploiting it.

Anyway, a large majority of migrants who make it to the border will be denied amnesty and deported, same as always.  

The criteria and burden of endangerment proof was always strict and it's stricter now with revisions made by the Trump administration, so an even larger majority of migrants who make it to the U.S. border should expect to be turned back.

Now that the President has stopped claiming and demanding that Mexico is going to pay for "The Wall", hopefully Mexico will continue to work with the U.S. to most compassionately and efficiently deal with the migrant caravans and help set realistic expectations.
