I never thought I would say this but I am actually becoming a fan of Mexico. Since the new president was sworn in they have taken a hard turn to locking down this problem, not on their own of course but because Trump is forcing them to but it seems they are getting a new mindset down there. Finally, after all this time, Mexico is seeing there is a problem and are reacting as a responsible nation should react. All due to Trump. If Mexico continues on this track I think we should offer them some sweeter deals. We could help lift them to our level if they truly want to be an all and I think that is what their president sees. If Mexico and the US get together in a coherent strategy we could possibly end this entire immigration problem for both of our nations. I would even propose that if they block immigration that we allow Mexicans something like a preferred immigration status so they can come here and work at will then return home without going through becoming a citizen. Something along those lines. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/t...rder-arrests-surge/ar-AACrCbP?ocid=spartanntp
Mexico needs to protect our borders from people asking for asylum from countries Trump cut off relief funding? pennies are worth so much over there, we could be spending pennies on the dollar vs the cost to deal with them over here - Trump created this mess
Trump CREATED the "Crisis" at the border. Trump is making it worse. Trump is 100% responsible for it. And Everybody Knows it.
The funding was cut AFTER the caravans started to head towards our border, so apparently that funding had NO impact on the number of asylum seekers headed our way. Based on the stories of corruption and oppression that these people are running from, I also serious doubt that these people benefited much from that funding.
How is Trump making the border crises worse? When Trump speaks people hear him say build a wall, keep the illegals out and deport the illegals who are here. When liberals speak the illegals hear them say sanctuary cities, path to citizenship, free healthcare, benefits, benefits and more benefits, allow illegals to vote, free education, walls are racist, abolish ICE, tear down the existing border barriers, and everyone on the planet should be allowed to come here.
we can help them there or expect more to come here, it costs us more when they come here then just helping their country with aid to get them back on their feet
Thought you folks were saying they are fearing for their lives, now you are saying a few pennies would satisfy them? Does paying them off stop them from fearing for their lives?
starving people have a harder time staying and fighting then those that are fed, so they just give up and come here someone could go live there with their children for a year and see if it's safe, you volunteering? I would rather they stay there and fight, especially when the alternative costs us more then helping them
Oh please, they aren't starving. Go look at some pictures of them and most of them are overweight. And there are 9 million people in Honduras that don't feel the need to run for their lives. What the hell did these few thousand do that the others did not?
The first large group of Africans arrived in the US this week. These "migrants" always seem to want to go where the benefits are best.
The only people and countries Dirty Donald refuses to diss or criticize are Putin and Russia and Saudi Arabia and the butcher MBS????Gee I wonder why???
How about trying to stand up to the narcothugs? The US fueled illegal drug economy produced these scumbags but even they can't target all of the population. Its better to target a relative few of the more uncooperative to terrorize or at least shut the rest up. A wall doesn't solve the problems that cause of this human migration. It merely treats the symptoms, after the fact.
This is something we have needed for a long time. A plan. Now enact national everify, reform birthright citizenship, place penalties on sanctuary cities, cut off all state and federal programs to illegals and exchange it all for national voter ID and a public healthcare option. The democrats will not be able to refuse and America will become stronger.
Once upon a time there was a massive bipartisan immigration plan. The Republican'ts killed it like a baby seal. Thanks, John Boner. https://www.politico.com/story/2013/06/immigration-bill-summary-093557
