No I'm not pretending because I don't speak Trumpanese.

It is a valid question. What will she do when she's not in her gated mansion? Where will she go when America would be flooded with illegals?

It's not Trumpanese, it's an awareness of how things operate in our country.

The wealthy live in sheltered communities and villages with no crime. They live insulated lives, far removed from those places where illegals and migrants are settling. It's like another world.

She can make decisions that will lead to the degradation of major cities and never once have to see the result of her efforts.

If the presidents are so sheltered then why did the previous presidents come out with grey and sometimes even white hair? If they live in a sheltered community they wouldn't be under that much stress.

According to the US Census American Community Survey, fully 75% of all these people speak English "well" or "very well."
That doesn't follow the narrative that they want to believe. But it wouldn't surprise me if Republicans were so threatened by immigrants that they'd demand them to lose any other language they know but English. Hell, I'm surprised the Alt Righters don't take torch and pitchfork to Rosetta Stone.

Why is Obama to blame. Reagan opened the gate and no president since then hasn't done anything about it.

Ha, well Hillary will be our first President who doesn't come out of office with grey hair! She already colors it and will be the first President for whom it's perfectly acceptable to do so.

Reagan didn't open any gate. He gave amnesty to 3 million illegals when he thought it would only be 300,000. He was promised by congress to secure the border and that is would be the last amnesty. He live to regret his decision because congress didn't follow through.


As for Obama his solution was to grant them stays of deportation along with work permits with millions of Americans out of work. He bypassed congress by EO which was ruled unconstitutional by the courts. So yes, he accelerated the problem as more just kept pouring in along with hundreds of thousands of so-called refugees.

Agreed, recent presidents have done little to stop illegal, and/or Third World immigration..

But the issue started with the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1965, and Ted Kennedy's advocacy for it. It changed the course of America's future from a predominately Western, First World society, to a population dominated by Third World immigrants & their extended families.
Ted Kennedy was completely wrong and/or completely dishonest about how the Act would transform America. If u have time, research it. Peace
