Does all this appeal to his base? Keep out anyone who is not a white male like me?


It's time to get over it. Come to the border, file the paperwork, and let our well developed system process people just like we have for generations. Not everyone is trying to "storm the southern border" as Donald would have his followers believe. Most are ordinary people trying to escape autocrats who would have them killed for their democratic beliefs.
But that wouldn't get his base all riled up if he just admitted we have a process with which to deal with this. INSTEAD he gets his followers all worked into a frenzy like those brown folk are 'storming the beaches".

It would be hilarious if it weren't so sad.

Us vs them is what won Trump the election so . . .he needs to whip up some enthusiasm in his base.

That is what Trump wants them to think. He thinks what motivates his base is ANGER for 'the other'. So he is going to play on those fears until after the mid-terms.

So far - neither party has shown much interest in that.

But you won't ever hear Trump admit that! It's all the fault of those evil Democrats.

Yawn. The "Deplorables" argument. Didn't work for Hillary either.

well so far the "process" is letting in drug traffickers, people traffickers, sex and child traffickers, gangs like MS13, etc...the process doesn't work when there's so many ways to just walk around it

The idiotic liberal left and ethnocentrics do. They have no basis for defending illegal immigration so they just pull the skin color/race card. They should be ashamed of themselves as this is about our nation's security and economic well being. Not our fault if most illegals have brown skin. If it the Canadian whites were doing the same thing en mass we'd still be objecting and for the same reasons.

Our country had eradicated many diseases such as polio, however a type of polio has emerged that affects mostly children. There seems to be a direct link between sickly illegal immigrant children, and the spread of the disease in the U.S.



Why are so many people willing to risk the health of their own children by allowing sick individuals into our country? So many aren't looking at the larger picture.







https://www.naturalnews.com/052502_e...aralysis.html#




(NaturalNews) A strange virus that began to spread rapidly after multiple waves of illegal immigrant children were shipped into the U.S. from Latin America last year has been shown in a new study to be directly related to the "polio-like illness" that's reportedly infected at least 112 children in 34 states, and killed nearly a dozen others.

Known as enterovirus D68, or EV-D68, the mystery virus picked up speed dramatically last fall, with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reporting that the number of new cases reported in 2014 was significantly higher than in any previous recorded year. And now, researchers from the University of California, San Francisco, (UCSF) have found the genetic signature of this enterovirus in patients diagnosed with a related illness known as acute flaccid myelitis (AFM).



<snip>


"The CDC hasn't suggested reasons for the current uptick or its origin," wrote investigative journalist Sharyl Attkisson about the mysterious, polio-like disease in a recent article referencing a study published in the Virology Journal. This study confirmed that EV-D68 was present in many of the 3,375 young, ill people from eight Latin American countries that were shipped to secret locations throughout the U.S. last year.

"Without that answer, some question whether the disease is being spread by the presence of tens of thousands of illegal immigrant children from Central America admitted to the U.S. in the past year."

Just another idiotic post by a liberal lefty or ethnocentric to demonize us law abiding Americans that want a secure border and immigrants to follow the legal process to come here. There's no cause for concern when we have at least 11 million illegals here and thousand more so-called asylum seekers crashing our borders lately? What's the reason for pulling the skin color card anyway? Yes, the Democrats are evil for advocating for non-enforcement of our immigration laws, amnesty, sanctuary cities to protect foreign criminals and ignoring the costs to the taxpayer to support these people. These people are more than just the "other"!

That poster is full of it anyway. Many have crossed our border illegally and didn't follow the protocol for an immigrant/refugee/asylum seeker.

And let's not mention that MS 13 originated in LA in the 80s.

Which is an international criminal gang with a high majority of its members being in this country illegally. Why does it really matter where the gang originated?
