According to Dictionary.com | Find the Meanings and Definitions of Words at Dictionary.com, a xenophobe is someone who hates foreigners, foreign customs, etc.

Trumps statements about Mexicans and now Muslims are clearly consistent with xenophobia. Therefore, he is a xenophobe. See? It's very straight forward.

Yeah, that really happens.

At most they pay sales taxes -- which are offset by the federal and state income taxes they DON'T pay because they are working under the table.

Just who do you think you're fooling?
Exactly. Plus where is the cost of those who loose work and receive government assistance?

It's not xenophobic to dislike the bad ones in those groups and that is what Trump is saying. But then you knew that, didn't you? It's ok we are used to liberals and ethnocentrics spinning the truth. You didn't disappoint. Trump never said he hates Mexicans, period! In fact he never even used the word hate. He objects to those here illegally and the crimes that many of them commit. But then you knew that, didn't you?

Oh, yes, he loves them so much! 'They're bringing, guns, drugs, and some, I assume are good people'. I love how he threw that like part on as an addendum.

He's manipulating the fear people like you have of Muslims and immigrants. It's demagoguery, plain and simple, but unfortunately you're too gullible to understand that.

Name-calling is all you have in this statement.

Did Trump say we shouldn't secure both borders?

Nope.

Straw man fallacy.

Course in logic called for.

That has been true for as long as I can remember.

How do you know he wouldn't want to help Christians?

You don't know that.

But you say it anyway.

More name-calling, and nothing else.

We don't know who is coming into this country or how they are getting in here.

Mexicans not being ISIS members has nothing to do with that.

No, they aren't.

Islam is a religion, not a region of the world.

Trump is against illegal immigrants -- especially the ones who commit serious crimes -- not against Mexicans.

But go ahead and spin the truth into a lie and then dress it up with name-calling.

That's all you have.

Yeah, he did call them stupid.

I leave it to you to decide whether it was a smart political move.
