The Honduran invasion.

[Carnal_Flower]

The interesting thing is for all his talk, what has Trump actually managed to do about the immigration situation? Not much. Kidnapped some kids and kicked out some others and blamed Democrats and that's about it. Well, he's also talked about it a lot. Ramping up fear while not doing a damn thing about it. He is weak and ineffective on this issue.

Its his issue, he's President and he has a Congress to do his bidding. And all the fuck he can do is hurt childten and blame Dems.

 

[bellisarius]

To begin with your first statement is wrong. They are about 1000 miles from the border. And the rest is just your speculation.

Mexico North to South.

Mexico is located at about 23° N and 102° W in the southern portion of North America. From its farthest land points, Mexico is a little over 3,200 km (2,000 mi) in length.

 

[beew]

This whole thing is getting mighty interesting. They say they plan to be on the border on or before election day. Really? How is that supposed to happen?

Whoever organized that caravan and it's slogan ('We won't settle for Mexico - we won't stop until we reach the US') shot themselves in the foot.

It seems to me that most moderate Democrats are either dissociating themselves from such madness, or opting not to comment.
As for those who support such enforced takeover of a country's borders...

 

[bellisarius]

That IS the point. Who did organize it? And it IS organized. There's been a lot of speculation on that subject.

Mexico North to South.

That doesn't mean it's how far away they are. Even Fox is saying about a thousand miles from the border.

 

[beew]

Yeah, I don't blame the lay Hondurans who attached themselves to the caravan.
If I was in their shoes, I, too would have seized the opportunity to choose US over Mexico, and make a much better life for my family.

But you're right: The slogan "Fuck Mexico as an option for asylum. We will only settle for the US, even if their leader says we should apply for asylum in the first country of contact" is both insane and gutsy.

I think that you're more than likely right - they wouldn't have the courage to do it without some sort of Poweholders' backing.

Soros is 88. Who will be the next Jewish scapegoat once he is gone?

Trump rarely mentions Soros by name, because Soros has more money than Trump.

Trump has the habit instead of referring to "international bankers" (the old code word that white nationalists used for Jews). Ironic, since his buddies at Deutsche Banke fueled his post-bankruptcy ascent.

 

[beew]

The United States is not even in the top ten of countries where there are the most refugees.

Many doubt that German politicians would have advocated for taking in so many refugees (many of them handpicked to be young able men) if not for the pending economic crisis brought by the massive decline in European natality.

I always sucked at History, but one phrase that a Historian said during an interview stuck with me for years: "There's no such thing as altruistic neighbors."
Everything in Politics is about self-interest; they just dress it up in altruistic lingo.

No shit. 45 is petrified of Soros mainly because 45 doesn't have the backing of the Koch brothers.

This whole thing is getting mighty interesting. They say they plan to be on the border on or before election day. Really? How is that supposed to happen?

They have 2000 miles to go and they're walking, at least that's the story the press is giving us. A well conditioned soldier with a moderate ruck can make 30miles/day. But that is a forced march and cannot be sustained over any extended period of time. A goal of 20 miles/day can be sustained for 5 days +/-. 15 miles/day can be sustained for an extended time provided ample hydration and quality calories. So let's do the math. 15 miles/day, 2000 miles to go. Works out to be 134 days and how long is it to the election? And that number is for healthy, fit, young men that are well supported.

How do you get 10,000 +/- (seems as if the 'caravan' is growing) unhealthy men, women, and children 2000 miles in 15 days? If that is to happen someone with really deep pockets is going to have to tip their hand.

It’s all organized by the left

Please detail who and how the left is organizing this caravan.

Also, it's reportedly up to 7,000 new and illegal (D) voters!

Nah, it has Trump reality show written all over it. Someone is filming for future syndication for the next time the right needs a created crisis to stir up the base.

 

[Wrong Element]

I've seen some others making a point that occurred to me too: the hysteria about this caravan is really similar to the Ebola scare right before the last midterm election. Some of you might remember that Ish was one of the leading GB spreaders of nonsense about that too.

Ebola disappeared from the headlines after it served its political purpose, and I predict the same will happen regarding the caravan.

And we have often seen Trump accuse others of things that he has done. No surprise that the caravan is the creation of the GOP.

It's interesting how the charge is that liberals cooked up this caravan to allegedly positively influence the election in their favor, when there's literally no liberal making this case since it's obviously illogical.

Plenty of righties talking about the political benefits of the caravan though, beginning with the idiot-in-chief.

Honduras disease potential.

Major infectious diseases:
degree of risk: high

food or waterborne diseases: bacterial diarrhea, hepatitis A, and typhoid fever

vectorborne diseases: dengue fever and malaria

note: active local transmission of Zika virus by Aedes species mosquitoes has been identified in this country (as of August 2016); it poses an important risk (a large number of cases possible) among US citizens if bitten by an infective mosquito; other less common ways to get Zika are through sex, via blood transfusion, or during pregnancy, in which the pregnant woman passes Zika virus to her fetus (2016)

These left wing fucks you're arguing with are too friggin' ignorant to understand the threat. What's on it's way up here is a physical cancer, a massive injection of ignorance, disease, and barbarism. The vast majority are military aged males with nothing to offer except a walk back down Evolution's memory lane.

Mexico should be using its army to repel this invasion. They need to be stopped in Mexico. If Mexico fails to stop the invasion we should consider them complicit in an act of war against the United States and invade Mexico to make sure they are stopped there instead of here. While we're at it, we should topple the governments of Guatemala and Honduras as well.
