TPM "Trump Goes Full Conspiracy Theory, Claims US Is Being Invaded" (he is batshit crazy)

(we continue our descent into the world of after midnight creature feature and cult movies, it seems - there can't be much more for him to go until he completely implodes/explodes into a drooling blubbering nonsensical lump)

Upon returning back to the White House following a visit to the U.S.-Mexico border — a trip he admitted to reporters was just a photo op — President Trump concluded that the U.S. is being invaded by immigrants.


“I just got back and it is a far worse situation than almost anyone would understand, an invasion!” he said in a Friday morning tweet.

Trump and his team have been bending over backward in recent days to paint the situation at the border as a crisis in order to justify the government shutdown Trump ignited when he refused to sign any funding bill that didn’t include money for his border wall.

Trump told reporters on Thursday that he would declare a national emergency in order to secure funding if Congress can’t compromise. The White House counsel’s office is reportedly guiding Trump aides to keep referring to the border “crisis” in public so they can justify the declaration when it is inevitably challenged in court by Democrats.

Humanitarian Crisis at our Southern Border. I just got back and it is a far worse situation than almost anyone would understand, an invasion! I have been there numerous times - The Democrats, Cryin’ Chuck and Nancy don’t know how bad and dangerous it is for our ENTIRE COUNTRY....

...The Steel Barrier, or Wall, should have been built by previous administrations long ago. They never got it done - I will. Without it, our Country cannot be safe. Criminals, Gangs, Human Traffickers, Drugs & so much other big trouble can easily pour in. It can be stopped cold!

they're everywhere! It's almost like white people (aka real 'Muricans) are outnumbered down there at this point. And all the Spanish speaking!! It's a disgrace, I tell you.

Lumberjacks are streaming across our northern border! Hockey sticks, axes, and flannel shirts! They're bringing gallons of maple syrup with NO artificial sweeteners or preservatives! Will no one think of the children?
