I never voted for Arpaio, so I wasn't responsible for his reign of terror

That wasn't much different than Trumps gain at notoriety, he knew it didn't need to be true and the right fringe would run with this.

Yes. If some of these people lived in AZ, as we did, they would have a clue, but most don't. I hope Trump does pardon him.

Let's see, brown race? Not so much a "race" but a "legal status" that is the issue to people that care about our country and believe in enforcing our laws as per written.

Illegals, their anchors and other relatives, and exploiters of illegal aliens have had their "panties in a bunch" for some time all riled up by liberal media who uses them to spread horse poop to try to detract from the positive effects of Trump's presidency.

Racial profiling? Yeah, if they lived in AZ or in a heavily populated area with illegals............ Racial profiling DOES NOT equate to being a racist, so what actual criteria is being used to call Arpaio a racist? Video clips would be useful in this determination versus "Well, I heard..........".

How is Apraio a racist for enforcing laws on the books? Did he let go Canadian or European illegal aliens? I never heard that. Plus being Mexican is not a race. There are very white to very brown people from Mexico.

Apraio should be pardoned. Obama clearly singled him out because Arpaio investigated his birth certificate.

I half expected Trump to nominate Arpaio to be the new FBI Director.

He must not have thought of it, or surely he would have, LOL!

Still lots of positions left to fill in the administration.

I'd like for Trump and Congress to come up with a plan so that only left wing nut-bars would be taxed for the cost of illegal immigration.
This.

only if he had a time machine.

the racial profiling case against arpaio dates back to 2007, before obama became president and years before joe's comically incompetent birth certificate investigation began in 2011.
