      His opponent will have a 95% chance of beating Trump, no doubt. This time it will be a slaughter beyond recognition. Trump is a political genius. I can see it clearly.

    1. a threat to humanity? if so, why are millions of people WALKING across a desert to ge here? you might want to look at the damage our careers politicians have done to these countries, before you blame POTUS.
      Obama deported WAY more people and started the family separation

      not Trump

    1. So Richard, I’ve been out of school for some time and need some brushing up. Explain to me what fascism is. Because last time I checked fascism doesn’t have checks and balances.

  1. Let’s see what some Founding Fathers wrote about immigrants coming to & seeking asylum in the US:

    Washington: “I had always hoped that this land might become a safe and agreeable Asylum to the virtuous & persecuted part of mankind, to whatever nation they might belong…” 1788

    Paine: America is “An asylum for mankind.” Common Sense

    Jefferson: The US offers “A sanctuary for those whom the misrule of Europe* may compel to seek happiness in other climes.” 1817

    The Declaration of Independence states that one of the abuses of the king was that he discouraged and prevented people from coming to the colonies by “obstructing the Laws for naturalization” & “refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations”.

    * It’s important to note that for much of America’s history, Americans descended from purely English ancestry thought of European countries, especially Southern and Eastern, as being “shitholes” or failed states (with the exception of France) and populated with people who weren’t really regarded as white (Anglo Saxon/WASP white was the only “real” white). This includes especially Irish, Scottish, and German people whom, of course, the English long thought of being inferior/backwards (hence not properly “white”). Immigration quotas and even bans were placed on every (or almost every) European country but England at some point in US history.

    So unless you can claim pure English ancestry, YOUR ancestors were for a long time not wanted in the US, regarded as something less than purely white, and coming from barbaric, failed, “shithole” countries by the majority of Americans, and the only reason YOU are here is because enough non-bigots fought for YOUR (or your ancestor’s) right to immigrate to the US and become a citizen.

  2. This has to stop. Trump and his folks are going to pay dearly for their words and actions. It can’t go on much longer.

    1. @Ox Alek
      “13 years if you count future President Pence”
      I hope that’s what they get. Just for the troll factor.

    2. @Static Flames the native Americans are of European decent you know this right?

      What the left calls natives actually came from Mongolia and never formed a nation so they are not native Americans

  3. And behind Trump, you see Stephen Miller loom over his shoulder, whispering right into his ear like the mosquito he is, about these matters.
    Miller needs to be fired.
    As soon as possible.

    1. BREAKING NEWS:

      Earlier today Elizabeth Warren was bitten by a Mosquito and lost her 1/2400 of Native American Blood. Doctors said her chances of winning a Presidential election are very bleak.

  4. this is about the efforts to exterminate the poor..trumps wife received an einstein visa All obvious if you have any sense

    1. Imagine the stupidity of some people who do not realize defending one’s borders is national defense. They overlook the fact some illegal invaders talk about conquering our country. They don’t care when illegals march in parades waving their foreign flags in our faces. They just love open borders. And then they wonder why they lose elections.

    1. Ox Alek
      Hmmm… Great Britain would be just JAM PACKED with Europeans of Greek, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Swiss, Russian… oops, no Russians, they just love their country and would never leave it…
      The Statue Of Liberty represents nothing?

    2. eltorocal no it doesn’t mr uneducated…
      It was a gift from France…
      We didn’t make it nor write that.
      Common Knowledge.
      Hard to come by in this comment thread isn’t it.

    1. Banned B!!!! Lol.
      Let me break it down slow.
      America is a Soverign Nation
      We make our laws.
      We have the option to follow others.
      Including the Geneva Convention.
      Tear that diploma up brah cause apparently it didn’t do anything for ya

    2. @Brusky Yep, just like making the laws out President has. We are a sovereign nation and can sign these laws into action.

    3. @Brusky never went… ” bro! ” I also pay 24k in taxes each month, I’m sure you have no idea what that would Intel.

    1. The comments of most Trump supporters push me further and further away from ever voting for Trump. They’re definitely helping to ensure that I’ll be voting straight Democrat in 2020. They’re so disrespectful and oblivious to the facts that I know my values and ideals will never match theirs, and by association, their preferred candidate.

    2. BWAHAHAHAHAHA….yes conservatives who work hard for what they earn and don’t rely on the government are parasites. How does that work?

  5. Because
    we are NOT A NATION OF IMMIGRANTS.
    And the facts don’t back that up considering the amount of non American born citizens in this country never exceeded 4.3 % of the population until after 1973…..
    So …
    Your wrong.

  6. It’s just funny to see the Democrats get mad over everything. When trump wins in 2020. I wonder what will happen then.
