Keymaster::I didn’t see “abuse the military” at your link. How is he abusing them?
Using the military for a cheap election tactic is abuse of presidential powers as well as abusing the military personnel.
This is not a security issue. A few families coming in together is not a national security issue.

Keymaster::Operation Impotent Gesture. The caravan is 1,000 miles away.
And only a subset of that will be coming to US border legally requesting asylum.
They are not illegal as per international as well as federal laws – shooting or killing those families using our military will be a horrendous crime – I don’t think the military will obey the orange monster’s orders to kill children – we are not Israel or Saudi Arabia to commit those crimes.
At worst, it will be a bureaucratic crisis, and not a security issue.

Keymaster::As Trump orders 5000 troops to our border to stop a caravan of refugees, it begs the question…
Where the hell were these 5000 troops as he let 3000 Puerto Ricans die?
Use of troops appears ok when it’s to harm brown people but not ok when they could help brown people.

Keymaster::I don’t often quote Fox News, but Shep Smith has it right: A dwindling group of refugees and migrants a thousand miles away is not a crisis. We have laws to deal with it.
Hyping this threat has nothing to do with national security — it’s only the worst kind of political stunt. https://t.co/zhzQJUUIeM

Participant::The good part of this is that our troops will be perfectly safe for several months, at least into 2020, before the ever dwindling horde of caravaners arrives.
Unless they start harassing each other out of shear bordom.

His base puts racism and xenophobia over the interests of our country.
