"Couldn't sleep, so early this a.m., I was up watching some overnight news from ABC..."Thanks for posting, but your report illustrates why I will no longer watch ANY news on tv, nothing at all.
When I sit down for Jeopardy! in the evening, if the ABC news is still on, I put the volume on "mute".
I read that the migrant invaders have swollen to 10,000, with the possibility that thousands upon thousands of MEXICANS will join them in the march towards the border.
Again I must state: this is right out of "The Camp of the Saints" by Jean Raspail. In his book, the throngs (a million strong) arrive by sea, then storm the beaches of France because the politicians won't use the military to stop them.
It looks like this is going to be repeated here, but the storming will be across "the sands" of the southern border.
Folks, there's nothing that can stop this now EXCEPT by the display (and possibly use) of military force.
Seems like Kelley in the White House may have been doing his best to dissuade Mr. Trump from sending troops to the border. I sense that John Bolton was promoting the idea (I could be wrong about that). But really, it's Mr. Trump's decision; if he ORDERS the commanders to do what they have to, they will do so.
I also agree with what Right in Virginia said:
"He should call the Mexican president and tell him if these people get within a 100 miles of our border the U.S military will cross the Rio Grande and create a buffer zone. Then close the border and halt all money transfers to Mexico."Exactly. And if the Mexican president says he will resist the presence of such troops, well, fine -- let the shooting start.
I predict any "war" with Mexico and Mexican troops will be over in about 30 minutes.
ONE THING I'M ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN OF (and the shouting is intentional):
If these invaders get through, it will be only weeks (or a couple of months) before THE NEXT "march northward" begins, perhaps with many more thousands.
I put up a post yesterday here:
http://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index.php/topic,337132.msg1826223.html#msg1826223I expected to be roundly criticized for it, but not a peep from anyone.
The question really is no longer "what must be done to stop the invasion?"
It has now become:
"Are you really really really
willing to do what is required to stop the invasion?"Well...
Are you?
