Why is this happening all of a sudden?  Is it because of the so-called caravan?  

What's going to happen to all the people who live in one country but work in the other one?  How will they go to work tomorrow?  Or the people who crossed the border for the weekend?  There are a lot of Americans who visit Tijuana during the weekend, as well as Mexicans who visit San Diego.

Glad our great POTUS is doing his duty and protecting this country for invasion. I shutter at the thought of Beatoff O'Dourke letting 'em all in if he becomes Pres.

Well the so-called invasion is happening anyway.  The only thing your president accomplished is to prevent working people from returning home or go to work.

Yeah. God knows what the country would be like if we let Irish, Italians, Jews, Polish, Chinese, and Cubans immigrate here. They should stay in their own poor countries. It's not like America destabilized and ruined any of these countries, so we owe nothing.

Look at how scary this caravan is

This is just dumb. We did absolutely nothing to the Irish, Italians, Jews, Polish, Chinese, or Cubans. Yes.

My point is that we've meddled in Central America for a century (including numerous real invasions) which has contributed to the area becoming the most violent region in the world, thus the mass exodus to our border. This 'invasion' as you put it is totally self-inflicted.

The United States was very much involved in the affairs of Cuba from the end of the Spanish-American War until the Bay of Pigs Invasion.

Well, without them the Italian mafioso wouldn't have spread to the US, who later plagued the big cities with mass murderers and debt collectors. Imagine the cartel as the modern day mafioso. Do we want hordes of people in without checking out who they are?

So fascism means keeping people out of your country who are trying to illegally enter? Sorry but here not the worlds orphanage. We need to look out for Americans first before we let the entire 3rd world come in

That's true. However, the U.S. government has played a huge role in destabilizing Latin America (especially under the presidency of Ronald Reagan).

If we didn't destabilize their countries, then maybe they wouldn't want to take extreme measures to come here.

They are legally trying to seek asylum at the border. The orange fascist has no authority to unilaterally stop the legal asylum process. Hopefully they can make a breakthrough and reach a safe spot to receive sanctuary like a church. We need a new 21st Century Underground Railroad system to help get these innocent folks to freedom and away from the tryanical reaches of the fascist ICE and CBP.

So what's the alternative? Let everyone in?

One can argue that the orange idiot should have pursued a different strategy beforehand, but that doesn't excuse trying to mass charge across the border.

They wouldn't be "mass charging" the border if he hadn't closed it, If they were trying to enter illegally they wouldn't have showed up at a port of entry to ask for asylum, they would have snuck in.
