Again, you should talk with the courts who have blocked Trump's actions on immigration and the border to let them know they can't do that.

Per WaPO, USAToday and a few other rags, the number is approximately 2,000 troops. Most were sent there in 2015 and 2016 by Obama. I did read that in early 2017, there were spec ops troops sent to Syria, but there wasn't a number listed.

That isn't a fact. FL GOP candidates received the highest number of hispanic votes -- 45% for Scott and 44% for DeSantis.
