DONALD WHO?:
Wisconsin governor orders troops to leave southern border (TODD RICHMOND, 2/26/19, AP)
The governor said about 112 troops are currently serving in Arizona but keeping the borders safe and protecting immigrants seeking asylum is the U.S. Customs and Border Patrol's job. He said there's not enough evidence to support Republican President Donald Trump's declaration that a national emergency exists and there's no justification for Wisconsin troops to remain."I cannot support keeping our brave service men and women away from their families without a clear need or purpose that would actively benefit the people of Wisconsin or our nation," Evers said.
