Just when you think Trump could not get any worse, he pulls his, "I wish I was a dictator and my word was law" act and tells border guards to ignore the law, even if a judge directly issues an order, and not allow legal asylum seekers into the country.

What is with this guy? Who does he think he is that he not only thinks HE can ignore the law, but that he counsels others to do so.

https://thehill.com/latino/437914-tr...igrants-report

"When the agents later asked their commanding officers about the remarks, their superiors said policy was to obey the law and that they would face personal liability if they complied with Trump's orders, according to the network."

The man is a loose cannon who has no idea what it takes to be a true leader of a democracy. He knows how to be a bully, but not a leader.

Read the article. It is frightening that he wanted children separated from their families, and Nielsen had to remind him that he had signed an executive order stopping the practice, remind him numerous times.

Unbelievable, and yet, there are a whole ton of people on here who think counselling to break the law is just dandy.

Another CNN story with 2 anonymous sources...LMAO!

I wonder who are the 2 anonymous sources, Jim Acosta and Jorge Ramos.


So Trump gives orders to regular Border Patrols to break the law and only 2 anonymous sources at CNN saw it? LOL

That's like General Patton giving orders directly to privates on the frontlines. That is not how the chain of command works....LMAO!

Unbelievable. Trump tells border guards ignore the law.


What did he tell them to do? Take away American citizens' guns? Force them to join a health care plan and threaten penalties if they didn't join up?

Both flatly against the law. The highest law of the land, in fact. Truly, unbelievable. He should be ashamed.

You're a charter member of the "Whatabout" club, aren't you?

LOL at Trump haters. What do you think Obama did with DACA?
What Obama did was worse than ignoring the law, he wrote his own law,
not congress. DACA recipients are still in limbo because what Obama did was illegal.

Illegally crossing the US border is a crime, but yet Dems are cheering
illegal aliens to ignore the law.
Gotta love Trump.

Worlds greatest super power and we can't even use our own troops to defend and secure our own border. Now what is wrong with that picture?

I wouldn't care if Trump ordered the border patrol to tear gas, bean bag, or high pressure water hose any migrants attempting to enter illegally.

Instead of flying all those Drone sorties for our allies maybe we should be using them on our own border?

Instead of the 6th fleet taking care of Israel and the med, maybe we should dedicate a few ships for coastal defense?

That's OK - Obama broke the laws all the time as well.
