        2 troops per person...5y/o? 2 active duty military members to block her. A baby? Same. What a colossal waste of tax payer funds.

        Mr. Trump, you can send a million active-duty troops and it would mean nothing until Central Americas have jobs, security and are free of the drug traffickers that provide the drugs that Americans consume.

        True, so we should invade those countries and make them American with law and order? Seems a bit excessive... How about Americans stop doing drugs. That would eliminate the problem by itself... there is no solution until you get paid more to be a worker than a drug mule there.

        There should be ZERO press coverage on this unless there is a confrontation. The "caravan" is hundreds of miles away.

        Nothing but fear mongering. Yes, women and children need to be confronted by the military when it’s legal to apply for asylum!

        The military isn't going there for the women and children, they're going there for the men of fighting age (between 18-30 years of age) who will attempt to cross illegally because they stand little to no chance of being granted asylum. https://www.facebook.com/mileniotelevision/videos/918587945007634/ …

        You do realize that crossings are up under trump? His scare tactics aren’t working. And you do realize “illegals” commit way less crime than citizens right? This country has a white male issue now. White male terrorist. Fear mongering is what this is before the midterms.

        Geez people read the article! They need administrative support, medical care, tents, food, etc. It’s just sending a more advanced version of the Red Cross.

        Right?!? It’s not like we have a federal emergency management agency to handle that sort of thing

        Yes the National Guard is exactly that. This is exactly their purpose. And 800 active duty will be sent from other military bases in support roles. B/c logistics is exactly what they are trained to do.

        Oh good...I was confused and didn’t think the national guard is a Federal Emergency Management Agency that I thought would handle things like this.
