President Trump did something Tuesday night that he has rarely done since taking office: He used the presidential bully pulpit to reach beyond his hardcore base of supporters to make his case to the American people as a whole. Speaking from the Oval Office for the first time during his presidency, Trump embraced our country’s tradition as a nation of immigrants, declaring “America proudly welcomes millions of lawful immigrants who enrich our society and contribute to our nation.” He then offered a cogent explanation why he believes we face what he called “a humanitarian crisis — a crisis of the heart and a crisis of the soul” along our southern border. He pointed out the human cost of our broken system to illegal migrants themselves, expressing compassion for the “children [who] are used as human pawns by vicious coyotes and ruthless gangs” and the “women [who] are sexually assaulted on the dangerous trek up through Mexico.” He shared heartbreaking stories of Americans killed by criminal aliens who had no right to be here — including a police officer in California who was murdered, a 16-year-old girl who was brutally stabbed in Maryland, and an Air Force veteran who was raped and beaten to death. “I’ve held the hands of the weeping mothers and embraced the grief-stricken fathers,” Trump declared. “I will never forget the pain in their eyes, the tremble in their voices, or the sadness gripping their souls.”

#1. To: A K A Stone, stop the gov free cheese, for illegal aliens (#0)
And yet President Trump still refuses to do his duty and deport the illegal aliens before these tragedies happen. Instead he demands a "Bill of Love" amnesty from congress so that these invaders can become US citizen murders, rapists, sexual assailants, etc... A wall is not going to stop his amnesty, or his sanctuary policies for the new batch of "Dreamers" who come to do the jobs, that the newly minted Americans won't. Stop giving welfare to illegals, free schooling, health care, food stamps, home loans, etc, and you eliminate most of the incentives to invade. Stop the foreign meddling in their home countries, and they will be better off and much more likely stay there. Instead of that Trump funds abortions, dead baby part sales to his gov goon researchers, violates the 2nd amendment with gun parts bans and plans "Red Flag" gun confiscations, and more and bigger stupid gov, aka growing the swamp. He's Obama, Hillary, and the Bush's on steroids!
The insane one has ranted. No one cares what you think. Even your old allies Buckeroo and sneaky have come to realize you are a nobody with no ideas. Just a crybaby.
Here's the ideas.... STOP the free gov cheese handouts to the invading rats. Enforce the law, DEPORT the illegal invaders. Stop our foreign MEDDLING in their countries, and they'll be better off and probably stay there. You don't want to SEE the solutions, so you pretend that I don't have any. Not true.
You also lie a lot. The other day you lied about what Jesus said about his death. Now you lie about Trump again. You're boring.
Great minds think alike. Texas Libertarian Ron Paul: We don’t need Trump’s border wall to stop illegal immigration President Donald Trump doesn’t need a wall to stop undocumented immigration, says former presidential candidate and Libertarian Ron Paul. Instead, he should remove incentives for coming to America.
Government is in the last resort the employment of armed men, of policemen, gendarmes, soldiers, prison guards, and hangmen. Instead, he should remove incentives for coming to America. Do you think Trump can do that without the traitors in congress. Boy you are dumb sometimes.
“I’ve held the hands of the weeping mothers and embraced the grief-stricken fathers,” Trump declared. “I will never forget the pain in their eyes, the tremble in their voices, or the sadness gripping their souls.”

Here's the ideas.... STOP the free gov cheese handouts to the invading rats.
The essential feature of government is the enforcement of its decrees by beating, killing, and imprisoning.
Those who are asking for more government interference are asking ultimately for more compulsion and less freedom.
