President Donald Trump on Thursday tweeted that the “caravan” of migrants headed for the U.S. should “turnaround” and “go back to your country.”

“To those in the Caravan,” Trump tweeted Thursday morning, “turnaround, we are not letting people into the United States illegally. Go back to your Country and if you want, apply for citizenship like millions of others are doing!”

On Thursday, reports emerged that the Department of Homeland Security is preparing to deploy up to 800 troops to the U.S.-Mexico border in response to the caravan, after Trump tweeted that he is “bringing out the military.”
