President Trump has warned Mexico that the advancing procession of a 1,000 plus person US-bound immigrant caravan “must be stopped”.

The immigrant caravan is made up of Central Americans from Honduras and is blasting North through Mexico to US southern border.

The immigrants are attempting to take advantage of a loophole in the American immigration system. If they are able to cross the border into the United States, they can ask for amnesty if the claim they’ll be persecuted if sent back to Honduras. That would allow most of the immigrants to stay in the United States for months, while their cases are being reviewed. During this time period, the immigrants could simply vanish into American society.

Trump tweeted Tuesday morning in regards to the caravan.

As ridiculous as it sounds, the laws of our country do not easily allow us to send those crossing our Southern Border back where they came from. A whole big wasted procedure must take place. Mexico & Canada have tough immigration laws, whereas ours are an Obama joke. ACT CONGRESS — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 3, 2018

Honduras, Mexico and many other countries that the U.S. is very generous to, sends many of their people to our country through our WEAK IMMIGRATION POLICIES. Caravans are heading here. Must pass tough laws and build the WALL. Democrats allow open borders, drugs and crime! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 3, 2018

The big Caravan of People from Honduras, now coming across Mexico and heading to our “Weak Laws” Border, had better be stopped before it gets there. Cash cow NAFTA is in play, as is foreign aid to Honduras and the countries that allow this to happen. Congress MUST ACT NOW! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 3, 2018
