Wait - I thought Democrats were calling everyone Racists might have had something to do with it. Ohhhhh, I get it. All Republicans are racists.

Come on, Trump stroking fear with immigrants was a big part of this election and continues to be a big part of his message.

You mean how Trump is singling out immigrants that are not here legally and have circumvented all legal means of being here? Getting in front of people doing the process correctly? Those immigrants?

Liberals hate it when people make a distinction between legal and illegal immigration.

Spence, do you teach your kids, that if they are tired of waiting in line for something, they should cut to the front? Or sneak in the back? Or otherwise cheat the people waiting patiently and following the rules? Or am I taking it all out of context?

So does Trump, or maybe he didn't know?

You cannot answer every possible question, by pointing out that trump isn’t a good person. I agree he’s not, but that had absolutely nothing to do with the question I asked.

It’s not if he is a “good “ person or not but if he uses people who are in a tough spot for his own profit and then throws them under the bus
