I would like political analysts to stop pondering why Trump is sending troops to the border. There is no strategy. State TV told him there were armies of brown people crossing the border. He's racist. He's unhinged. People will die. There will be blood on his racist hands.

Why didn't they ask the governors before making the proclamation? Oregon governor has already said she will decline the request.

They could’ve also asked the border patrol if they needed help. It’s a sham like everything else Trump does.

Why not hire more border security, that was the plan wasn’t it?

He saw a Fox News report about a caravan of Hondurans headed for the border, had a full blown xenophobic panic attack and decided to call in the cavalry.
