    News Trump threatens to call US military to close southern border as 4,000-strong migrant caravan pushes north

    By Greg Norman | Fox News




    President Trump warned Thursday he will “call up the U.S. Military and CLOSE OUR SOUTHERN BORDER” with Mexico if officials there don’t stop the northward flow of a growing migrant caravan that's swelled in size to about 4,000 people.

    The president’s latest threat against the caravan that originated in Honduras – and which is heading to the U.S. in a bid to escape Honduras’ poverty and violence – comes as Secretary of State Mike Pompeo is heading to Central America to talk with leaders about the issue.

    “I am watching the Democrat Party led (because they want Open Borders and existing weak laws) assault on our country by Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador, whose leaders are doing little to stop this large flow of people, INCLUDING MANY CRIMINALS, from entering Mexico to U.S.,” Trump tweeted Thursday morning.

    He added: “In addition to stopping all payments to these countries, which seem to have almost no control over their population, I must, in the strongest of terms, ask Mexico to stop this onslaught - and if unable to do so I will call up the U.S. Military and CLOSE OUR SOUTHERN BORDER!”

    It's caught on like wildfire if Muddy's using it now.

    Turn them toward the coast, put them on a freighter and send them to Australia. See how long it takes for Monk to call for a wall to be built.

    I was about to call indignation " they seem like refugees, how do you know they are criminals", but yes if it were our borders we'd ship them off to a South Pacific island for 'processing' .

    P.s. why can't Mechico help? No civil war there, right?

    This seems so odd that this issue just pops up out of nowhere and everybody knows about it.

    It's so bothersome how that's considered a controversial comment, wasn't it the Dali Lama who said refuges have a duty to return home and help though? If our countries were like this, we'd march to our capital, not to someone else's. South America has other countries that can be their beacons of light. Chile and Costa Rica are moderately wealthy, stable and safe. Ask them for help.
