President Donald Trump finally admitted Tuesday that he had “no proof” to support his blatant lies and conspiracy theories about the migrants and asylum-seekers traveling toward the U.S.-Mexico border.
The President also tried — and failed — to get Vice President Mike Pence to accuse Democrats of funding the caravan, and to say there were Islamic State members in the caravan.
Pence did say that, during a phone call earlier Tuesday, the vice president of Honduras had told him that the group “was organized by leftist organizations and financed by Venezuela.”
“What else did they say, Mike, about ISIS?” Trump attempted. “Did they say something?”
They hadn’t. Pence returned to talking about leftist groups.
Pressed earlier for proof for Democrats’ non-existent involvement with the caravan, Trump was similarly evasive.
“You’re going to find out. And we’re going to see. Maybe they made a bad mistake, too,” he said.

When they say “financed” by leftists, what are they even talking about? What funds do they think they’re witnessing at work when they see a bunch of starving people with no shoes walking across Central America and sleeping on the side of the road.
Venezuela couldn’t finance a two-car motorcade from one side of Tegucigalpa’s Plaza Los Dolores to the other.
Yesssss, the weapons-grade “I’m not even saying these words as they dribble out of my own mouth” two-weeks unpromise.
It had been too long since we got the pure uncut stuff.
And also not nearly long enough.
So what? He is a butt hole we all ready know that.
