Trump Says He’ll Put Any Asylum Seeker From Migrant Caravan In ‘Tent Cities

President Donald Trump said Monday on Fox News that he planned to put any members of the migrant caravan who apply for asylum into new “tent cities” that would be “all over the place,” sharpening his recent efforts to politicize the southern border ahead of next month’s midterm elections.

“We’re catching; we’re not releasing,” Trump said in the interview with Fox News host Laura Ingraham. “So if they want to come over, we’re not even doing that. We’re not letting them into this country. If they apply for asylum, we’re going to hold them until such time as their trial takes place.”

The president said he would order the construction of tent cities that’d be “very nice.” But he said he wouldn’t spend “hundreds of millions of dollars” on “structures” to house anyone detained while awaiting the outcome of an asylum application.

“We’re going to put tents up all over the place,” Trump said, before noting that “they’re going to wait, and, if they don’t get asylum, they’re going to get out.”

Vote Tuesday if you don't like this. If you don't vote, don't say ****, because you've abdicated your voice.

So he's letting them in. I'm sure the bombmaking, terrorist-sorrying part of his base will be fine with that. Why I'm making a connection between those unrelated things? Because Trump wants your attention to go from the acts of right-wing terrorism of last week towards the migrant 'caravan'.
