The new ads by Donald Trump hammer undocumented immigrants and terrorism and pledge to make America safe again.
Making undocumented the equivalent of ISIS terrorists is yet another example of the focus of the Trump campaign aimed at hammering and demonizing those least able to defend themselves.
If you spend any time studying England and the world’s response to the Great Hunger in Ireland in the 19th century, you’ll be struck by the moralizing, the finger pointing and at worst the cold indifference — not unlike the Trump dark vision today.
There is no doubt that Trump would have demonized the Irish fleeing the famine and turned back the antecedents of men like John F. Kennedy and Ronald Reagan, the father of Henry Ford and the father of Eugene O’Neill among millions of others. …

This dumbass writer doesn’t know there wasn’t 320,000,000 people in the USA in the 19th century.
Oh Please O’Doherty, this isn’t the 19th century and we’re being invaded by potential terrorists and freeloaders, not starving micks. Pull your head out of your ass.
Oh noes think of poor wee Irish children. ......the Donald must stopped!
Clinton would have accepted the ships only after they paid her foundation enough cash, then required them to vote as told under threat of life.
Mick-turatation...
Lordy, these people, I swear...SMH.
It was a different class of immigrants. There was no such thing as welfare the second they get here. People came LEGALLY vs ILLEAGALY today. Immigrants were checked for disease, etc too at places like Ellis Island. Many were turned back too.
Today we are over 19 Trillion Dollars in debt. Taxpayers can’t afford to put the entire the entire world on welfare, free housing, free medical care, schooling, food stamps, etc.... This is when we have close to 100 million people out of the U.S. Work force.
Over 1/3 OF U.S. prisoners per the 2012 FBI are illegal immigrants this is no longer affordable to the U.S. Taxpayer.
For the next three months, Donald Trump would have pushed jews and other undesirables into the furnaces. The left is beneath contempt.
Potato bombs were a real problem back then.
Sounds to me like O’Doherty should just stick to raising funds for his fellow travelers in the IRA.
He also obvioulsly doesn’t the difference between an immigrant potato farmer who was starving to death in his own country that came here to feed his family and a crazed Middle Eastern lunatic militant radical who lied who they were to get into this country to kill us with bombs or scimitars and take over our country. They guy’s obviously no genius.
Perhaps this ass hat thinks looking at the world through his belly button is normal. For him it might be.
He knows the difference. He is just using it as a pretext to trash Trump. F him.
This writer needs to turn his history book forward a few pages and consider the plight of European Jews on the SS St. Louis that were turned away from US shores just prior to WW2. Perhaps he could favor us with a few lines about the Demo patron saint, Franklin of Hyde Park.
Then Ireland should open her borders to the hordes.
No he would not have you moron. Because the Irish weren’t coming here to practice Jihad. Ideological tests have always been a part of migration screening until recently when hyper stupid leftwingers got in charge and replaced real history with their feelings about what they think history should be with special concern for not offending Jihadist thugs.
may I make a modest proposal ???
