        And there's no reason the AP couldn't simply post the "draft memo" online rather than relying on inflammatory second-hand characterization.

        @BoucherKc Granted Drumpf would probably use the guard to enforce it. Too often MSM considers "reasonable" speculation as a source

        it's worth considering whether Donald Trump or the HRC wing of the "left" is more out of their minds

        Hysteria? Nothing could beat the mis-reporting & Twitter panic around the dreaded 'death panels' of ObamaCare....

        I tend to agree with you usually but even if in draft form isn't the issue that the administration may be considering?

        Also much less hysteria when Obama deployed Nat'l Guard to the border. http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/obama-authorizes-deployment-national-guard-southwest/story?id=10740858 …

        So was President Obama right to do it then or is Trump wrong to do it now? Or is it different?
