So, would you prefer to just keep letting them come into the country illegally? Or do you think it would be better to have a deterrent?

we shut our doors to keep people out who we didn’t invite. not just mexicans. and it works.

yes doors have been around for centuries. so have walls. because they work.

who says walls are all we need? your side, not my aide, wants to abandon ICE. think for a moment man.

the cause of torn apart families, was adults who chose to take children with them on an illegal
journey. it’s also always worth noting that none of the snowflakes uttered a syllable
about separated families and caged children, when obama was doing it. selective outrage is fake outrage.

if we didn’t separate the kids, and threw everyone into one facility, and even one of those kids was hurt by an adult there, then the same people would be complaining that we threw the children to the wolves.

it’s very common for adults who are being processed through the criminal justice system, to temporarily lose custody of their children. happens all the time. it’s necessary.

and if i was born in mexico and couldn’t find work and couldn’t come here legally, i’d come here illegally if i had to. i absolutely get the motivation. but regardless of intentions, breaking the law has consequences, not all of them pleasant.

take every single penny we confiscate from mexican drug dealers and gangs, and use that money to improve those facilities. we have to detain these people
until their hearings, common sense and empirical data suggest that 90% of those released dont show up for their hearings, but they deserve compassion and
dignity.

i’d wager the walls are working where they exist. i’ll wager most illegal immigration takes place where there are no walls.

P.S. a-der-der.

"This (AP) story has been corrected to reflect that Alabama WAS included in charts mentioning wind speed probabilities from August 28 to August 31. The story previously said it was not."

AP Agency reverses course on Trump’s Alabama hurricane claim


The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration issued a statement that information provided by NOAA and the National Hurricane Center to the president had demonstrated that “tropical-storm-force winds from Hurricane Dorian could impact Alabama.” The advisories were dated from last Wednesday, Aug. 28, through Monday, the statement read.

Friday’s NOAA statement, points to graphics issued by the National Hurricane Center to support Trump’s claims. The maps show percentage possibility of tropical storm force winds in the United States. Parts of Alabama were covered, usually with 5% to 10% chances, between Aug. 27 and Sept. 3. Maps on Aug. 30 grew to cover far more of Alabama.

Not a single word in the NOAA statement backs up Trump’s claim on Sunday that Alabama “will most likely be hit (much) harder than anticipated.”

Only a malignant narcissist would be unable to admit they too cannot predict the weather and be obsessed with it for close to a week, so far, keeping the story alive.

Yesterday the Stable Genius tweeted this, perhaps he was worried about the late night comics having to find new material.

The Fake News Media was fixated on the fact that I properly said, at the beginnings of Hurricane Dorian, that in addition to Florida & other states, Alabama may also be grazed or hit. They went Crazy, hoping against hope that I made a mistake (which I didn’t). Check out maps.....
....This nonsense has never happened to another President. Four days of corrupt reporting, still without an apology. But there are many things that the Fake News Media has not apologized to me for, like the Witch Hunt, or SpyGate! The LameStream Media and their Democrat.....
....partner should start playing it straight. It would be so much better for our Country!
