| Within sight of United States, Trump creates more bureaucracy to thwart caravan |
The
ones that have been traveling throughout Mexico, and some of whom have actually
made it as far as Tijuana. Meaning they’re literally here. Right across the
border from San Diego and U.S. territory proper.
WE’VE
ALSO HEARD the stories of U.S. military personnel being amassed along the
border, so as to appease those people who approve of the Age of Trump we now
live in who want those foreigners kept out of the country in whatever way
possible.
It
was encouraging to learn of military officials expressing objections to being
used in such a manner. Yet in some ways, it is equally discouraging to see the
tactic being used by Trump to achieve the ultimate goal of keeping those people
out of the country.
Let
the bureaucrats rule!
As
in throw so many legal obstacles in the way of actually being able to enter
this country (the one that claims it is all about helping “your tired, your
poor. Your huddled masses, yearning to breathe free”) that maybe, just maybe,
many of them will merely give up and go back home.

IT
SEEMS THE U.S. officials have actually reached an agreement with Mexico; by
which the people now waiting their turn in Tijuana to have a chance at seeking
asylum here will have to wait in Mexico.
Even
though their cases will be decided in U.S.-based courts, they won’t be able to
wait it out here. And it will be a wait – because the number of individuals now
seeking and likely to seek asylum will take months for the courts to properly
dispose of.
If
anything, this has been the attitude that our federal government has taken in
dealing with immigration – creating a bureaucratic mess meant to thwart the
desires of those who’d want to be a productive part of our society here.
Rather
than try to reform our immigration laws so as to deal in any sensible way with
the masses who want to be part of life here, we’d rather create as many obstacles
as we can dream up.

| … work out deal that lets bureaucracy rule |
ANYBODY
WHO TRIES to say that we’re merely trying to deal with the masses of people passing
through Mexico on the way to the United States in logical manner is spewing
nonsense-talk. Trump, after all, also let it be known he’s prepared to close
the U.S./Mexico border outright “if for any reason it becomes necessary.”
Such
as perhaps if too many of the people who have caravanned their way from central
America to Southern California actually manage to get the U.S. court system to
approve their desires to live here.
It’s
not surprising that, in Mexico, there are people who are getting upset at the
notion of these central American natives having to be held within their country
just because the United States has certain officials who wish they could make
the issue go away.
It’s
like our ideological nitwit officials are trying to dump a problem off on
someone else – exactly the same way they always try to claim other countries are
dumping their problems off on U.S.
THIS
WHOLE SITUATION is one that is bound to become an embarrassment to the United
States. It will be one of the biggest buffoonish acts to be committed by the Trump
presidency.

| ROBERTS: Challenging Trump viewpoint |
Not
that I expect the fanatics who approve of The Donald to ever admit any of this.
All they’ll hear are the words “foreigner” and “Mexico” and they’ll be
desperate to accept it, no matter how absurd the mechanics of it all are.
Because
if they really had faith in this nation and its systems of operating, they’d be
willing to trust the courts to weed through the large number of people seeking
asylum in this country.
Then
again, these people are the ones who these days are denouncing Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts for his recent statement that, “there are no Obama judges
or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges. An independent judiciary is
something we should all be thankful for.”
