Are you attempting to blur the line between legal immigrants and illegal aliens? The former obeyed our immigration laws and patiently awaited their turn to come here. The latter either sneaked across a border or overstayed a visa. Illegal aliens have no business being here. Period.

Illegals can't vote and if you really wanted to you could get rid of them by going after the businesses that hire them. Of course I understand its easier to blame brown people who are poor than to go after rich people.

You should stop reading left wingnut nonsense and get out of the house occasionally.

deflect deflect deflect again.

Your failure to even attempt to rebut the OP suggests you know it is true, so instead you try to shift the conversation to dems and borders...

lets stay on topic.

Trump and the Republican party hold all the cards.


There is nothing to stop them from rounding up all visa overstays and illegals, today.

White people have rights. White people get to vote. If you don't like living with white people or like how we vote, we will gladly let you live apart from us where our votes won't affect you.

Can you reciprocate?

Only George Wallace and Donald Trump were shameless enough to openly court them; usually it was left to local actors (and the likes of Fox News) to issue the dog whistles and code words that would summon this “deplorable” demographic to the polls. These voters have no need, indeed they have no patience, for the intellectual gloss provided by traditional conservative thinkers.

The problem for the G.O.P. has been that as its support among the broader population has waned, its primaries have become more and more dominated by this demographic. Trump, armed with a con artist’s willingness to lie openly and shamelessly, easily cashed in on the ignorance and gullibility of what is now the Republican base.

Hardly a nice letter - as a Democrat who voted for Trump because my own party couldn't come up with a viable choice except recycled trash - I was looking for someone who could shake things up - and Trump is definitely doing that. The problem is haters will always be haters - unfortunately all the comparison of Trump to Hitler or Wallace is falling on deaf ears and the only people that look bad are those supporting this kind of rhetoric.
