1. Trump is right to stop illegal alien caravan instead of rolling out welcome mat

From USA TODAY: "Trump will stop the caravan, defend our border, keep out criminals, and protect America. Democrats want to abolish ICE and keep a weak asylum system."

2. No right for 'migrant caravan' to enter US

From Washington Examiner: "This is a body of people the size of a town population looking to relocate to the United States whether the citizens of this country like it or not.

3. 'Migrant caravan' has no right to be here

From Washington Examiner: "Amid the conspiracy theories and the bloody madness revolving about the matter, we've never quite settled on the proper nomenclature."
