Many of the first world nations are making remarks about immigration because it's turned into more of an invasion of poor people from third world countries.

"Trump accuser Sen. Dick Durbin has a history of lying"

Yes, he does. It's also very easy to omit a few words here or there too. Something was apparently said that caused a spark though. I would imagine the truth lies somewhere between the two forces. From here on out, it would probably be wise to record these meetings. I'm not sure how that would work, I assume everyone in the room would have to agree.

Even our own Florida Governor Rick Scott, who generally has his nose deep up Trump's behind, is distancing himself from those remarks, calling them distasteful and not who we are as Americans.

As much as the Trumpees try to minimize it and dismiss it, this is a big deal, and just one more example of how crazy and undisciplined Trump is.

Back in Reality USA.......nobody cares.
That says more about those two Senators and you and those that “don’t care” than you realize.

Gee thanks for telling us. Fortunately you are a nobody and your words don't matter. The president's words do.

The No. 2 Democrat in the Senate, Sen. Dick Durbin, said in a Facebook post that a House Republican leader told off President Barack Obama during a negotiation meeting, and that GOP leaders are so disrespectful it’s practically impossible to have a conversation with them.

However, both the White House and the House speaker’s office denied Durbin’s account of events.

Asked about the post in the White House daily briefing, press secretary Jay Carney said he checked with a participant of the meeting in question.

“I looked into this and spoke with somebody who was in that meeting and it did not happen,” Carney said.

Trump has a 40-year history of lying and his history includes volumes and volumes of lies. Durbin had no reason to make it up when their are other witnesses. It's a shame that some of them are such cowards.
