    JUST IN: Days before midterms, Pres. Trump says military's border mission could increase to 15,000 troops. "As far as the caravan is concerned, our military is out. We have about 5,000...we'll do up to anywhere between 10 and 15,000 military personnel." https://abcn.ws/2Q4WDGJ pic.twitter.com/ckn3iSdJ2T

        MORE: The announcement would double or triple the number of troops currently deploying in anticipation of a migrant caravan, which is about 800 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border.http://abcn.ws/2Q4WDGJ

        16,000 troops, Border patrol *and* ICE. Yay! small government! How much will this cost us while we “can’t afford” to pay teachers a living wage?

        Combining my previous two thoughts on this subject, this would be eight soldiers to every member of the caravan. Imagine what we could do on education with even just one teacher for every eight children.

        That is if all of them reach the border. Many are only travelling to add security as they cross Mexico. Last time only about 200 reached the border and of those only 3 were granted asylum.

        Are we getting ready to invade Mexico? 15,000 troops is enough for an invasion.

        Trump keeping up his scare tactics so that the gullible GOP will vote for racism instead of healthcare, which will really impact them

        So it was unpatriotic and disrespectful to the Troops for people to kneel during the anthem but the @POTUS using the military as a political prop is it okay? I'm all for border security but using ppl who volunteered to serve, when the POTUS nor I did, is wrong. #SupportOurTroops

        Yes pro border security. Anti violation of Posse Comitatus. The "caravan" is not invading an army so there is no legal justification to use troops. I'm not suggesting letting all of possibly any of them in, we have policies in place. Even if they are lacking. I'm arguing that

        the use of the military is wrong. So they putting razor wire out and building temporary barriers. If they are also carrying their weapons. So if it's troops or a wall my question to you is what are the ROE's for this situation? Do we fire on unarmed people? If so when?

        What the hell are they doing down there? There’s no caravan for 2 months? What a waste of our tax$ and precious resources of our military.

        Why wouldn’t be insulted! Stupid #Trump is deploying US military on a babysitting mission.
