    A mess. An absolute mess. Trump used these troops for political fodder before the election. Now they are just sitting around doing nothing, roughing it. A waste of of human and financial resources. Will cost $50,000,000+.https://twitter.com/tackettdc/status/1061278006772142081 …

        If he was any leader at all he would send them over to California to help with the fires, or the aftermath of destruction already done. People need help desperately but as always it doesn't involve him he doesn't care.

        Why can't others see what we clearly see. He doesn't care about any of us. He doesn't care about America, or Americans. The man is only concerned about himself. The Faux care about veterans has always been there.

        Ima say that 70+% of the troops there support this mission and would gladly sit around with no amenities if it meant blocking brown people from entering the country.

        The Caravan disappeared from threat or concern on November 7th. The election, and therefore any pretense of their mission, is over! Bring them home to their families!
