Administration Admits Border Deployment Was a $200 Million Election Stunt

[Windparadox]

My post speaks to the not-beating heart of your thread. That being your willingness to take a _______ on both your commander in chief and the US Military and individual troops guarding your butt along with the rest of our great nation, all in the name of winning you up some political currency for your "side" which in truth all Americans should be on the same damn one. Further, rather than wax stupid about the migrant caravan via CNN or MSNBC's cult broadcast head shrinking, hop on a plane, a train or in an automobile and go on down to the border and have a look for yourself. Then come on back and report what you seen. Maybe take some coffee for the troops, rather than gold medals for your immigrant heroes.

`
Maybe it is attention span.

"The military is leaving the southern border, and the caravan hasn’t even arrived yet.

The Pentagon is set to begin a drawdown of its 5,800 troops from the Southwest border as early as this week, the Army commander overseeing the mission told POLITICO today—even as the approaching caravan of refugees prompted U.S. customs officers to close a port of entry near Tijuana, Mexico.

All the active-duty troops that President Donald Trump ordered sent to the border before the midterm elections should be home by Christmas, said Army Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Buchanan, who is running the mission from San Antonio, Texas." - Source

Who'd of guessed? This lying sack of shit of a president is costing the taxpayer just to reinforce his ego.

They were deployed to build a tent city. Their job there is over now. Whats so surprising about this story?

Where in the article did the administration admit that?

Oh wait the OP inserted her BS

Trump is strong on anti immigration....best get used to it loons

Of course it was a stunt. Send troops right before the election. Withdraw them right after. Has to be one of the shortest military deployments ever.

Perhaps you can tell us why the troops are still down there?

They have already said that they never expected to come in contact with the caravan, and will withdraw by December 15th.

You stated Trump would withdraw the troops right after the election. The election was November 6th. Now you claim Trump will withdraw the troops December 15th. You win the Pat Paulson talking out of both sides of your mouth award!

Blind in one eye, refuses to open the other. Perhaps you should journey south and wade into the "harmless" legion of Central American invaders yourself. Take them rose petals and sweet nothings you can toss to flutter earthbound at their feet to carpet their beautified crossing of our border. I am certain they will be on their best behavior in your presence.

`Thos
I'm talking about a news item I posted, which happens to be the topic. You are off in la-la land someplace. If you want to focus on other aspects of this issue, start your own thread. Short attention span? Na, just another one of those "change the topic" posts which the far right is so famous for.

Those people are just Lib posters who have not idea of what they are posting as long as it within the Progressive goals or cage. It worth sometimes to read to see what the word of the day is in the play book used for copy and paste.

Vanity Fair???? Politico???? Even Mexico is having major problems from these groups. Sure am glad
that Trump has some common sense and huevos.

Troll work hard for their money,

`
You don't like my news source? Here's another one; "Pentagon to begin drawdown of troops at border: report" - It's all basically the same thing.

As we said when it was happening, it was all for the base. That's all that matters to him.

How strange! You must be right about it even though in your link and its video, Trump says nary a word about withdrawing the troops.

Here's one from the Army Times; "Why migrants won’t see armed US troops on the border"

They really aren't drawing down this week like the Gen advertised, huh? Who is Commander In Chief?

Last I heard Trump has authorized deadly force and has ordered the border closed. Troops are still there.

I'm sure you hear lots of crazy stuff.

All this talk about illegals taking jobs, yet it seems like every time you hear about a business getting busted for hiring them, it is owned by a Republican.

`
Yeah, right....with orders to shoot. I have to admit, you score big on originality.

They'll have been deployed for a whole month and a half? Aww shit. This is war, motherfuckers.

You know December is right after November, right? By the time the troops withdraw the results of the election still wouldn't have taken affect yet.
