Newsweek: Trump's border troops needless: no terrorists, infiltrators, or crisis

Thanks to kstewart33 for posting this story in GD first under the OP headline "This is a Bombshell." I see this as a critically important story about how dangerous republican lies are, and how wantonly they squander our hard-earned tax dollars to stage a FAKE crisis with the hope of tricking the American people and thereby f*cking over our democracy. Therefore, I'm re-posting the with another more specific headline. This is just the kind of shit you have to expect from a FIVE-TIME REPUBLICAN DRAFT DODGING casino hustler, after the republicans put him 'in charge' of our sons and daughters in uniform.


NEWSWEEK
Newsweek reports that leaked US military assessment documents conclude about Trump's border invasion crisis: no terrorists, no infiltrators, and only a small percentage of the immigrants will reach the border.

The reporter who broke the story said that the largest number of senior officers believe that sending the 15,000 soldiers to the border is politically motivated, and that it is a waste of time and money especially given that the number exceeds the size of our entire force in Afghanistan.
