Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) says a 7,000-person migrant caravan that is headed to the U.S.-Mexico border is “an invasion” that President Trump has the executive power to stop.
In an interview with Fox News, Gohmert said Trump has the power executively “to stop an invasion,” which in this case is the migrant caravan.
“[President Trump] has made clear that this basically is an invasion and it needs to be stopped,” Gohmert said.
“In an emergency situation, he has additional powers. But he doesn’t even need those powers to stop an invasion coming across and say, ‘We’re closing the border, Mexico, until you disperse all of these people and do not allow them to come to our border,’” Gohmert continued.
The Texas congressman cited a Breitbart News report where the Center for Immigration Studies Director of Policy Jessica Vaughan detailed four ways that the migrant caravan can be halted before the foreign nationals try to cross into the U.S.
Those four avenues Trump can take in regards to the caravan include: Closing the border, shutting down bogus asylum claims, refusing entry to caravan migrants, and mandating that asylum claims be made in the embassies of the migrant’s home country, not at a Port of Entry.

than you for your efforts on behalf of saving our country
Curiously, the ‘4 ways’ makes not a whisper of a reference to Gen Mattis’ sending troops, although the Senator praised woodrow wilson for doing precisely that. Multiple times, counting mentioning ‘national guard’… The ‘reporters’ by contrast seemed so hell-bent on making it seem that these people were so civilian, why?? what’s their reason? is it stupidly just because they are not in uniforms… but yet they mouth speech ideas that they were instructed to repeat for reporters like having orders to do so for media… Specifically interesting was the denial… ‘not political’ was said so many times it was irritating,… Read more »
President Trump, should also close the Northern border to Canada, because our idiot PM Trudeau is bringing in ISIS fighters from the middle east and setting them up in Canada. It is only a matter of time before one of those terrorist, come from Canada to the USA and does something that will affect the relationship Canada has with the USA. By Pres. Trump closing the border to and from Canada, will force Trudeau to stop bringing in terrorist into Canada from the middle east, protecting North America the way it needs to be protected!
The 7,000 marching toward the USA is about only 3 days worth at the regular immigration rate. We get this every 3 days!
the only way to stop them is to set up machine guns and artillery at the border, if they try to force their way across, open up on them and let them have it, end of problem.
