    If Trump hadn't handled the economy so well then the economy would not be at record-high levels, and record low unemployment (employers begging for workers), so the invading horde wouldn't want to come here. It's Trumps fault. During the high unemployment under the "community organizer" our country was not as desirable place to come to. I blame Trump.

    Question: who is to blame for the caravans (there is another one now forming, with even more to come)?

    I blame Trump. Having a "community organizer" (read poor economy) running things kept the invaders at bay, but with a crack business man in the office we are the envy of this hemisphere - so here come the hordes.

    Your opinion?

    In a way, he is right. They wouldn't come here if the economy was bad like it was.

    Except for the fact that according to some on the scene reporter is paying them to make the Trip and know one seems to know who is doing that.

    Well, during Obama's terms, there were mass SELF-deportations, so why would you think he isn't serious? They are skipping Venezuela, and marching 1,500 miles past coyotes, rattle snakes, rapist, drug cartels in the desert wearing their sunday bests just to get here and live high on the hog.

    Yes, Venezuela (south) is closer, but they don't go there, instead, they know where to go (north - capitalism!)

    The mob of vandals started from Venezuela, the Socialist utopian country. The Socialist government created by Hugo Chavez, the former Marxist that Obama praised as an example of fundamental transformation that USA should embrace.

    Chávez came to power, after unsuccessfully attempting a coup, by winning an election in 1998. He won by selling the idea of giving power to the people, and ending the corruption of the traditional political parties that had governed Venezuela for the last quarter-century.

    Once in power, Chávez replaced the existing Congress by creating a new National Assembly, which he controlled. He used his new National Assembly to rewrite the constitution to perpetuate himself in power.

    The new National Assembly also reshaped the Supreme Court. They alleged the existing justices were corrupt, and inserted Chávez’s followers in their place.

    Chávez created an image of an enlightened world leader, selling oil at a discount to many Latin American nations to buy good will. For example, he struck a deal to provided Cuba with deeply discounted oil in exchange for Cuban doctors.

    He started a war against the private sector. He nationalized thousands of private companies and industries, to the amazement of his followers and to the astonishment of business owners and consumers who did not see it coming.

    I thought he meant that Trump has done a bad thing. I guess he is actually a Trump supporter.

    Trump has an obligation to improve our economy for our citizens, just like any country's leader. Trump has an obligation to protect our borders, just like any country's leader. Trump has an obligation to enforce our laws, just like any country's leader. Thank goodness we elected a man who accepts his responsibilities.

    The Lone Ranger and Tonto. are surrounded by hostile Indians. The Lone Ranger tells Tonto "We will be in a fight to the death." Tonto replies "What do you mean we white man".

    Not sure that is relevant. I just happened to think of it.

    The last line of the OP asks - your opinion.

    I Couldn't tell you. I caught it in the middle of a montage from Fox news of various reporters from other networks who are covering the story.
