They have to label the asylum seekers as invaders for the political capital. Otherwise it doesn’t work.

What are most of the people in the caravan trying to control?
Organized groups intending to overwhelm and circumvent the law can most certainly be characterized as invaders.
This is a dangerous action for everyone, especially the people being exploited and taunted with being able to make it to the US.
Makes a better barrier a more desirable investment to alleviate the potential of the border LEO’s being overwhelmed.
Immigration law.
Who is marching these people across hundreds of miles to make money? Sounds like you have intel. Do tell.
That their kids grow up and don’t get killed.
Political capital is a double edged sword.
Not in this case. Trump and Republican media have played this perfectly. You would think they have spears and flaming arrows and catapults.
Embedded media is exploiting them for ratings.
Should be pretty obvious.
Nonsense. It is a polarizing issue that helps turn attention away from the economy and helps D propaganda.
Circumvent law? These people have already stated they want asylum. That’s what the US law also states. One can declare asylum when entering the US.
These people aren’t going to bum rush the border and try and hide somewhere in the desert.
Yeah, that’s not true. Trump and Republican media have been touting the economy for months now.
There is a process for this. No need to join a caravan.
…and the exploiters would rather hit an emotive hot button…Classic D performance.
Groups like these, who admit at least partial responsibility themselves.
The only media that is exploiting them is the right wing media. Do you hear the CEC and Fox News ranting and raving about how this caravan is bringing in thousands of leprosy, MS-13, middle easterners, that these people are going to vote in the med term, they are going to all claim welfare? Some are claiming that George Soros is funding the caravan.

They haven’t. It’s perfectly legal to apply for asylum
It’s the altername English language of the deplorables.

Of course it is. The USA has saved and accepted more asylum seekers than any other entity on earth and the appreciation is to call the leadership racist if they don’t accept illegal applicants.
We do the most and it is still not enough.
Maybe if you call us names often enough you can win the debate. I wouldn’t bet on it though.
