Every one of those stakes have Soros paid small pox and leprosy virus on the tips.

...and, the insults. 
It's ironic that those who cant argue a point without resorting to insults consider other people less intellectually capable. re
 

That was a funny post and I'd make it again if I could. I don't consider you to be less intellectually capable, at all.

I think you're wrong in thinking that this is some sort of organizational miracle. Think about the numbers that are thrown out about the total number of people that attempt to cross the southern border each year. Then consider the relatively paltry size of this incredibly visible news event that is the "caravan" in an increasingly connected world. There were 303k apprehensions at the border and it's estimated that they catch 80% of all people that attempt. That's a heck of a lot more than there are in this caravan. Exactly how flush with cash do you believe all of those 303k are? Are they all backed by a mysterious benefactor?

Truth is Trump wants these people here.  Those tent cities paying private contractors where he gets a cut from his donors are gold.  Wake up people.  The man is a career con artist.  Y'all joined the circus and I won't fault you but....MAGA!!! Tomorrow it will be something else you believe and jump on board with.

Oh, don't bother introducing that.

If anyone thinks Trump (and his buds/donors) don't have incentive for people being detained, consider the cost of the detainment, who is getting paid for it and who is paying for it. 

Follow the damn money and it's pretty clear whose bread is getting best buttered in the whole immigration scenario. 

... but Soros and memes and NPCs and fwfwfwfwfwfw. 

Just about every politician is a POS. I just don't understand why so many peope willingly wash Trump's balls when he's so damned brazen.

Nobody is washing Trump’s balls here. We’ve all complained about his actions or comments throughout his presidency. But I won’t complain about him positioning troops to defend our borders. Last I checked that’s the whole point of having a military.

I'm guessing that unarmed men, women, and children....all poor and on foot...don't pose much of a risk to our country.   They are being watched closely and none of them are getting across the border w/o our permission.    Labeling this as an "invasion" is just fear mongering.  Bulking up security for the situation makes sense, but sending 5K troops is just an expensive PR stunt.  

I'd rather see our troops used to secure our borders and points of entry as opposed to pointlessly fighting in the middle east. You are correct that it's for show for the midterms

My question to that is while all these diseased criminals are Soros paid conspirators coming to kill us all, why can't we blame the Koch brothers or our real leader, Putin? I do blame the Dems, they won't fight dirty.

When they get acoss the border we'll send them right over to your place so that patio can get done. It's hard to find Salvadoran help these days.

[arch stanton]

Because they all work at Trump’s golf courses?

[Blarg]

Except for in the kitchen because, evidently, they don't make very good tostadas. And as we all know, Donald loves his tostadas.

I had of those new tostadas El Pollo Loco keeps advertising the other day. 

It was pretty good. 

[Blarg]

Good suggestion, I might go there for lunch. 

[fan_since79]

Their Original Pollo Bowl combo for $5 is a great deal.

I'm surprised no one noticed the stash of Sudafed in his open desk drawer. And it's not the US version but a brand you buy in the UK. So he's not making America's nose great again.

I wonder what the cost was to have kept them where they were at.  Would love to see the net cost of this.

oh, it would've been free! there's only a cost involved if it's something trump does that the dems don't like.

All politics aside, i legit want to know who or what is financing this.  As with most things, follow the money find the truth, and the one obvious thing about this is that there is a crap ton of money behind it.  I would be very curious as to the source of said funds.

There's a crap ton of money in it as well. Those people aren't going to create private facilities that are publicly funded to have themselves held in. Somebody's got to do that.

True, im just talking about whoever is handling the logistics of getting them here, not what happens after.

It seems to me that handling the logistics of getting people here could easily be a relatively meager and very much worthwhile investment for somebody that could profit handsomely at taxpayer expense once said people get here.

of course, im just really curious about where the money is coming from now... someone is making that investment, id like to know who.
Whether its someone on the left for obvious reasons, or someone on the right playing misdirection reindeer games... i would really like to know the truth is all im saying

wait just a doggone minute . . . are you two jokers trying to tell me that this is NOT a spontaneous trip of people moving on their own accord?

Do you imagine that leaving them at their barracks would have cost more then the spontaneous deployment ? 

I don’t get the objection to this.  The party of fiscal responsibility that is always crying about government waste.  Goes ahead and blows hundreds of millions of dollars on a political stunt. They get called on it.  And suddenly this is unfairness to Trump ?

surprised to see you take that position Tank.

And what funding ? Like what are you guys talking about ? Is someone putting these people up at motels or something as they wander north ?
