Trump played a game of Second-Level 4-D Intergalactic Chess and no one has noticed

Everyone is talking about what is essentially a flame war that has absolutely no bearing on public policy. No one is talking about the REAL story: Trump effectively ended the asylum seeker crisis at the southern border yesterday.

The above SHOULD have been the top story of the week. But instead, Trump tweeted what he tweeted on Sunday morning and that has been the top story in Washington ever since.

The Trump administration on Monday announced a sweeping new policy tightening restrictions for asylum seekers, in a move that could drastically reduce the number of Central American migrants eligible to enter the United States in this way.
The new rule, published in the Federal Register, would require most migrants entering through America’s southern border to first seek asylum in one of the countries they traversed – whether in Mexico, in Central America, or elsewhere on their journey. In most cases, only if that application is denied would they then be able to seek asylum in the United States.

That's what happens when you are up against a party that only cares about two things: remaining in power, and optics.
Trolling his way into Making America Great Again. With the left hand he's pointing a laser pointer at the wall and these cats run full speed into it every time. While with the right hand he's signing his way into becoming the greatest POTUS of all time.

So, in reality, what does this mean?
Does this mean that everytime an illegal crosses and claims asylum, the feds detain them then they fly them back to their country if origin?
Because that's the only way he can both vacate the detention centers while at the same time mitigating the crossings.
If they know they will just get flown back to where they're from, they won't come in the first place.

Oh give it a day to two. This is going to ratchet up the immigration issue big time. It’s not going anywhere, it’ll be front and center most of the next 15 months.....

Agree immensely, not only is the new asylum regulation the right solution to get everything in order while Congress continues to suck their own dicks and do nothing but his tweets got an entire major political party and some FAKE GOPers to rally around a bunch of racist commies, this all but ensures he'll win next year WHAT A GOAT

I assure you he was anticipating this:

It's pretty simple: Look at a map of Central America.
Under the new policy, in order to seek Asylum in the U.S. by entering through the U.S./Mexico border:
-A Mexican can apply at the border
-A Guatemalan or Belizan has to show proof of applying for asylum in Mexico first
-An El Salvadoran or Honduran has to show proof of applying in Guatemala first, then Mexico before applying in the U.S.
Basically, if you caravan from Panama to the southern border, you have to show proof that you applied for Asylum in every country you crossed into on your way before applying at the U.S. border
OR
You come in through a port of entry

Didn't someone here post a thread with photos that new wall construction was ongoing?
Why is drudge currently headlining an old mantra that no new wall is being built?

Because if you replace a three rail wooden fence with a 20 foot steel barrier.....its replacement not new wall construction.
Deceptive media, but hey thats the way they roll.
