Here’s How Voters Are Viewing the Caravan

US Department of Defense

Voters are reacting strongly to the news that a caravan of illegal immigrants is coming to America. The Daily Caller reports:

Republicans believe their opposition to the migrant caravan filled with thousands of illegal immigrants who are approaching the U.S. border will help energize their base before the Nov. 6 midterm elections, while many Democrats have continued to remain silent on the issue.

The caravan, which was roughly 2,000 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border near Tijuana and about 800 miles from the southern tip of Texas as of Thursday, has been a key issue for Republicans less than one week out from the midterm elections, as GOP candidates have been hammering their Democratic opponents for not mentioning the potential threat to the U.S.

The Republican National Committee (RNC) and Republican strategists have all echoed similar messages, saying the migrant caravan would indeed help the GOP before the midterm elections — many saying it reminds voters that Democrats are putting U.S. citizens in danger. They also mentioned how the silence from Democrats on the issue will end up helping Republicans, who have so vocally denounced the caravan entering the country.

“From their open border policies to their calls to abolish ICE, the caravan is yet another reminder to voters that Democrats have put the sovereignty of our country in jeopardy with their extreme immigration views. Meanwhile, Republicans are protecting America by working to legally control our borders and keep dangerous criminals from entering our country,” RNC spokesman Steve Guest told The Daily Caller News Foundation in a statement.

Will Democrats finally talk about what they would do about the caravan, or do they understand that their radical open-borders agenda will lead them to defeat?

Probably not. They’re not smart enough to see the danger represented by these caravans. They only see the caravans as more mindless voters.

It is unreasonable to expect the Democratic party to come up with any reasonable solution or plan for the upcoming arrival of this hoard of illegal immigration. They have not as yet shown any real plan politically except to hate and resist any thing attached to the Republican party or to President Trump. They are dead in their tracks and are ill prepared for what is coming to us from the south.
Most Americans, of both parties, want a safe borders with our southern border neighbors.
I believe the Democrats are looking to their parties leadership for a solution but are getting only a “deer in the headlights”, blankness as their solution from them.
The current Republican parties solution may no be perfect, but it IS A Plan! If the Republican leadership holds tight with a sincere and workable plan for dealing with the illegals approaching our southern borders, it will be the final blow that smashes the Democrats now and in the future.

All Democrats see is votes…. forget about the American citizen who has worked hard and saved for retirement….. the socialists Democrats will take that away from you and give it to those who don’t work…… how can America survive with deadbeats? It can’t…. Socialism is nothing more than slavery….. ask Sen Ted Cruz father what it is like living under socialism…. he lived it.

Democrats are like the Romans welcoming the Barbarians to Rome or the French welcoming the Vikings (not the football team) to Paris. Those that do not remember history are doomed to repeat it.

I agree but the Democrats have a new vision .. they will forget history and forge a new history to their liking. They will “will the new history into being” ignoring what has occurred in the past. Venezuela is a recent example. The Socialist Democratic Party wants the US to be just like Venezuela. And the Dems, if they had their way, would simply will into being. It’s a win/win for them. As polticos in power, they will reap the financial windfall from us ordinary folks and when the country collapses from within, they can move elsewhere with shrugged shoulders or simply sit in the well protected compounds.

And you are so-o-o right. And please take note, Beto the dem wit running in Texas against Cruz is helping the caravan. How’s that for showing their colors? A traitor and how is it he can do this since it is against the law? How is he funding his help? Either his campaign is or Soros donated some more to enable him to put his Beto neck in the noose. What he is doing is illegal and likely going to blow up in his face. Make sure Texas knows what this little moron is doing! And for votes because he is not a nice guy since most of the illegals in the caravan are young males unaccompanied by family! Just coming over to cause trouble as is the norm for bunch of illegal aliens and to mooch on the public welfare. Dah!

Most politicians still don’t get it . We want all the illegals removed from America . We have no problem with coming the legal way .The bringing of people who want us to cater to them and to implement their laws on our people are the reason that we will be fighting these people in our streets . They recreate the same hell holes in our country that they profess to be leaving .And will never assimilate. Americans are dying in our streets while we give billions to countries whose people will not fight for their own country but are trying and do succeed with the politicians help to take and have what is not theirs to take . We are tired of this relentless attack on our country and our people . And will fight back to return our country back to us !

I could NOT have said it better for the most part and when I say things against those Immigrants that are trying to convert America into what they were escaping from a very depressive home country and it will end up bringing that here to America and cause our citizens wanting to find another country where we could live in PEACE without ALL of the dangers brought here by those ILLEGAL Immigrants are bringing into America and it will help to destroy our economy and our way of life and make things worse than where they were somewhat safe but just and then those illegals will havwe to find their own country to take their worries and troubles.

I agree all illegals should be deported. Enter America legally or don’t enter at all…. We American’s owe you immigrants “nothing” as my forefathers came to America legally expecting nothing from the government, received nothing, worked hard and became something. The immigration laws should contain anyone legally entering America must follow the following rules. (1) Must speak fluent English, (2) Must have a job, (3) Must have housing, (4) Must have transportation or funds to take public transit, (5) Can’t not fly your countries flag on America soil. Only American flag and US state flags can be flown on American soil.

Sorta reminds one of the way the Democrats have treated any possible way to increase their influence even if it was dangerous or destructive to our nation. . . .all with the intentioin of gaining voters, legal or not ! Its standard operating prodcedure with the Dems, to get power back so their can get their hands on the tax payers $, legal voters preferred but any live body will do !

Democrats and their allies put these caravans together. There will be more caravans until we put a stop to it by jailing the organizers and their sponsors. The optics of a mass of people ostensibly escaping brutal treatment by their home country waving their homeland flag as they march north is not lost on us.

The Democrats would sacrifice their own mothers for extra votes! They couldn’t care less about the safety of the American People or, what the influx of so many illegals into our country would do to our economy. We know that some Democrats have helped to sponsor the “Caravans” (Invasion Force) so, we should definitely hold them accountable for any injuries and property damage that they cause. I sure wish that our government would arrest the heads of the DNC and charge them with treason or, at least, aiding and abetting criminals!

According to Obama we are bending to scare tactics and the danger put forth by our president is exagerrated. This is the same person that said ISIS was nothing but a JV team and didn’t pose a large threat.

Obama was and still is the most destructive person against America. America gave him everything, yet he has given America nothing but chaos. Why would a President, Congress who represents their constituents (or do they)? would consider slavery (socialism) over freedom (US Constitution)? If socialists Democrats ever get a stronghold or elected to the Presidency and Congress, we will be the ____hole country. GOD help us.

It doesn’t take a genius to see that the Democrats/Liberals/Leftest/Socialist and Millennials care more about these Criminals then they do about the people they were elected to serve. There is no way that this country or any country can sustain this kind if influx of low skilled to no-skilled people coming in to their country and become wards of the state. Just to feed and shelter this many people would cost Millions per MONTH and that doesn’t include any medical care they might need. Then there is the very real risk of more MS-13 gang members sneaking in with this Mob as well as other criminals and who knows who else might have mixed in with this Mob. This has got to stop and it must stop now.

IF these immigrants would apply for AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP LEGALLY and all illegals living in AMERICA then would be accepted. Of course this applies to all foreign people living in AMERICA. For the last 125 years this has been the right way and the AMERICAN PEOPLE welcomed them. BUT instead they want it the way it was in their countries and the way that it is being done in European countries now. The way that they are doing it now will only lead to trouble and people will be hurt. They must and will be stopped. The question of undesirable terrorist and criminals is also of concern. Anyone that thinks that they would not use this to their advantage is not being realistic. The question that has been being asked is what would Mexico do if this was happening in reverse, with thousands or even hundreds trying to FORCE their way into Mexico. And Mexico eithr has not been asked or has not made an answer. MAY GOD HELP EVERYONE GET THROUGH THIS CRISIES.

This is NOT migrant caravan or a Migration; this is an invasion. This is an attack on the US by a Mob who are demanding that we must take them in and support them for the rest of their lives. If they were in fact seeking asylum they could have very easily applied at the US Embassy or consulate in their country, if they were accepted they would have been give transportation to the US and welcomed. By storming our boarders they are attacking the US and should be treated as an Invasion army.

Yes Mr. Winters, I agree with you…. this is an invasion…. too bad we can’t take these socialists Democratic swines to the border and dump them into Mexico without return rights. I don’t understand why Soros and other wealthy people don’t use their wealth for the betterment of mankind…… vs the destruction of mankind…….. makes no sense to me, however, mad men don’t make sense….. like socialism…. Socialism is nothing more than total control of your life…… I believe that total control of my life belongs to GOD….

People in the US are tired of the moochers coming here for the taxpayers to support, deport all illegals doesn’t matter their nationality, if they came here illegally them first, then any one seeking sanctuary that does not assimilate to the US constitution then them next because if they want to hold to their laws they are not suitable for citizenship and if not suitable for citizenship they are suitable to live in this country

I am in favor or using our military to vend them off at the boarder and if necessary we can send them down to Mexico to support their troops, if it comes to that.
We are a sovereign Nation and I for one will not let anyone destroy it. I am a pretty good shot and at 72 years old I would volunteer to defend out southern boarder if needed.

Nothing more than pure invasion attempt by the UN and Soros. Time to shuffle the UN out of the country and use the property for a useful purpose like housing homeless veterans.

When I was growing up, there used to be conservative/moderate Democrats who worked for the betterment of mankind…. however, there are no conservative/moderate Democrats in Congress, only radical socialists…. What happened to the conservative/moderate Democrats? Have they been brainwashed and castrated? NOW IS THE TIME… to stand up for America regardless of party affiliation and defend our US Constitution in order for America to remain free….

Bottom line is Democrats work not for the Citizens of this country, but only to control us and our tax money. They are in it for the money only, and right now need illegal votes to get elected. Be smart and Vote Republican.

I saw a bird eye view of the people crossing the bridge and the city surrounding the bridge was inviting to the many possibilities to make it a permanent residence. Why do they keep marching?
