You're right that Americans aren't as stupid as they hoped/thought. Most know that Trump and the Republicans are responsible for the shutdown despite the deranged Twitter posts stating otherwise. The *** is up. (Why is J-I-G censored? LOL!)

And Trump employs them on the cheap. Don't forget that now.

However, are you contending that no criminals have crossed the Mexican border into the United States?


In addition to potentially importing criminals, the critical issue is admitting a large group of uneducated, unskilled, illiterate people in the US who will be federal dependents. There is a huge economic cost to pay for open borders and the US cannot feed, clothe, and house every poor person on the planet.
I'm so confused at how immigrants are both stealing jobs and desperately poor. What are these jobs that Americans are crying over losing that keep people in poverty?

J-I-G has a history of being an abbreviated form of a racial slur from days of yore...

Honestly no reason to deflect, just stating a fact. You think the Dems are the only ones with supposed incentive to continue to allow illegals to come in? Pretty obvious that the most effective things we couled do would be to heavily fine any company or business entity for knowingly hiring illegals, yet, neither party seems to have the political will to do so... Why do you think that is?

You keep on with your sweeping generalizations though. They're OH so effective!

When I saw the title of this thread, I thought it was going to be about how Trump threw his security agencies, the CIA NSA, and FBI, under the bus at Helsinki when he told the Russians he doesn't trust what they say. Silly me.

In typical GOP fashion, you want to continue missing the forest for the trees...

You, of course, are forgetting that these people aren't allowed to vote. And before you get on with it, recall that Trump's little commission to flesh out all this supposed "illegal voting" came up barren and was an embarrassment that was quickly swept under the rug by this administration...

Oh, but keep on with the narrative. Don't let hard facts stand in the way.
