Exactly where do these 10-15K people actually get deployed from?

10-15000 troops to keep out about 3500 human beings fleeing violence and oppression and poverty. Boy, that certainly is a good look for this country. Throw our values into Trump dump. Who knows if this will happen but it is an extreme abuse of power to even threaten this. We are not at war with Mexico or Central America.

He has completely lost it. From 5000 troops now up to 10,000 to 15,000.
Will they have some very nice tents for them to stay in too?

That is not a small number he is talking. So I imagine that these would be people pulled from other current tasks. So what is disrupted in that process? Do we post them like 1 every half mile of the border, tell them, this is yours to police? Or send them in on mob to look threatening and give hard looks across the border? How does this work?

Donnie seems to be the one that can pull anything out of a hat and say anything with backup or not. I’m betting this is all theatrics for the election. Think I’ll have to stop reading anything that gets posted about him. He makes me crazy.

Jeez.

It finally sank in on you that you are going to lose the House, didn’t it?

Either that or the rumors about the Mueller subpoena are true.

The troop number betrays the degree of Trump’s xenophobia.

This is vintage Trump and his Charlottesville good people.Send heavily armed people against unarmed people.
This also shows how much of a coward 5 Deferment Warmonger Donnie is has always been protected and has never done a manly thing in his life.

And, where will they stay? Tents? Motels? Out in the open? I really think the chief nitwit is blowing smoke.
