Hence reform. Politics is at play now, sadly, and its unfortunate for us citizens. Its all about the vote. In fact, Hillary speaking WITH La Raza this week is literally spelling that out.
Be it far from me to defend Hillary, but IMO, if Trump is all high and mighty on immigration, he should confront La Raza by speaking with them too.
But you can't accuse Trump of doing something everyone else is also doing or has done without giving due diligence to others, regardless of ideology, of doing the same thing.
Every politician is opportunistic. It's a requirement. It's also why only certain people with mental deficiencies and a tolerance for sleaze get into politics.
What's different here is that you were saying that what Trump was saying was factually accurate. I pointed out that Trump is saying what he wants a potential voting swath to hear from him. There is a difference.
He isn't saying that. Nor am I. Don't be so obtuse. Hell, all morning long I've heard latinos calling into political radio agreeing with what Trump has said. Many have said its well known in the latino community of the issues and its been too long swept under the rug. All Trump is saying is exactly what the left and media refuse to acknowledge because its all about the vote and not upsetting their base. Exactly what Swag accused Trump of doing others are doing well on both sides.
If you've ever been to Mexico City, you'll see a Mexican middle class that you won't find here -- people eating in nice restaurants, driving nice cars, etc. So of course it's disproportionally the people with the worst job or social prospects that emigrate seeking opportunity that they cannot forge or find for themselves at home.
But that's different than saying that the immigrants are mainly murderers and rapists. This isn't Cuba's Mariel boatlift we're talking about where the government is actively trying to exile criminals.
Because when I look at who is lining up in front of the Home Depots across this country, it's not people who risked so much to come here to rape and murder people. It's people who just want to work their asses off to make a better life for themselves and their families.
Another irony is that the majority of these people are often religious and social conservatives with heavy-duty "family values" compared to most Americans, and yet they are characterized as disproportionately rapists and murderers.
You guys do realize our media (aside from Fox) is entirely liberal, right? So naturally, based off of that information, don't you think Trump is going to get 10 times more media pressure than liberal candidates? If it wasn't for Fox you wouldn't hear a peep about Hillary's email scandal, Benghazi, her shitty record as SoS, among other political scandals over the last presidency. Regardless of what Trump said, you better bet your sweet cakes the media is going to pounce while circling the wagon around their own candidates. Birds of a feather...
I don't see how an email scandal or a he-said/she-said over what happened to some diplomats in a faraway continent is supposed to get the voting public as worked up over the rape and murder of their family members in their own back yards, though.
Of course Cam, but he said it in a way to get he most press. Trump is the master of this. Now he can stand in his bathroom and tell himself "I'm so awesome".
His hair included.
