The Refugee Caravan

Political pundits have been predicting an "October Surprise" before the US November midterm elections. This caravan of refugees heading for the US border is that "surprise": the best gift that Trump and his crowd could possibly hope for. In fact, it's such an incredibly good turn-of-events for the Republicans that anyone could be excused for being suspicious as to its timing, its organization and its funding. The refugees themselves are undoubtedly bone fide, but the timing, organization and funding should be highly suspect.
