Left’s canard about Trump politicizing the caravan rigs hollow

With the Honduran migrant caravan breaking up fast before it even reaches the U.S. border, we are now seeing a shift of “narrative” from the media minions of the left and Democratic Party politicians.  Here’s what’s being tacked onto quite a few news pieces, such as this one from the Associated Press:

Similar caravans have occurred regularly over the years and passed largely unnoticed, but Trump has focused on the latest marchers seeking to make border security a hot-button issue in next week’s midterm elections.

So caravans come, and caravans go, and only President Trump was making something political of it?  And that something political was all about winning the midterms?

Here’s a passage that just made sure it slipped that little detail in:

President Donald Trump has ordered U.S. troops to the Mexican border in response to the caravans.  More than 7,000 active duty troops have been told to deploy to Texas, Arizona and California ahead of the midterm elections.

What planet do these people live on?

The real background here is that up until recently, migrants at the border have made tremendous hay for Democrats with sob stories of women and children being separated at the border.
