Whew, I was worried there for a while yesterday — I actually believed all the fake news out there that President Trump was ready to fold on his promise to start enforcing immigration law for the benefit of the American people.
But when I heard the words “merit-based immigration system,” I figured we were OK. You see, there’s two kinds of immigration systems — merit-based and Democrat-based.
“It is a basic principle,” he said, “that those seeking to enter a country ought to be able to support themselves financially.”
You can see why the Democrats were sitting on their hands. How are they going to keep them down on the farm if they have to go out and work for a living like Americans do? Why, it’s, it’s … un-American, or at least un-Democrat.
Trump did offer an olive branch, of sorts, but it didn’t sound much like the one the alt-left’s Democrat operatives with press passes were touting yesterday after their lunch with a “senior White House official.”
Trump ad-libbed on the wall — he was supposed to say “great wall,” not “great, great wall.” And he offered what immigration reform had to accomplish — “improve jobs and wages for Americans, strengthen our nation’s security and restore respect for our laws.”
Sorry, all of the above are non-starters for the fake Indian and her tribe.
If he had really been planning to cave on immigration, I was wondering yesterday, why did he invite the survivors of the illegal-immigrant crime wave that has devastated the nation? People like Jamiel Shaw, whose 17-year-old son was gunned down in cold blood by a tattooed ex-con Mexican gangbanger in L.A.? A really nice guy, who I met a couple of times last year on the campaign trail. He looked like he was going to cry last night, thinking about Jamiel Jr.
Trump didn’t sell out Jamiel Shaw and the others in the gallery. He mentioned the “Angel” parents, whose children were murdered by the invaders, and when he did he took maybe his only shot of the evening at the fake-news media. “We are providing a voice to those who have been ignored by our media and silenced by special interests.”
Theres nothing in the U.S. Constitution that forces us to take in a bunch of so called refugees from terrorists sponsoring n nations that seattle judge and the 9th Circus Court is being irresponsible and foolish
It is truly a window into the soul of liberals when the lie about the illegal immigrant agenda, accusing Trump of threatening Immigrants. Liberals don’t care about the fear they create in order to undermine the economy and national security.
