NASCAR Cuts Ties with Donald Trump After He Calls for Securing The Border
Breitbart.Com ^ | July 5, 2015 | AWR Hawkins

Posted on 07/06/2015 12:28:28 AM PDT by BradtotheBone

After Kathryn Steinle was allegedly gunned down by illegal alien Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez on July 1, GOP presidential hopeful Donald Trump said the heinous act brought into focus once more the need to build a wall to seal our southern border. NASCAR responded to the policy proposal by cutting ties with Trump, saying it will no longer use “the Trump National Doral Miami resort for its postseason award banquets.”

Breitbart News previously reported that Sanchez had already been deported five times and had seven felonies on his record, but the immigration stance of President Obama, Governor Jerry Brown (D), California Attorney General Kamala Harris, and even San Francisco County Sheriff Ross Mirkarimi, made it possible for him to be in the country — and sadly, on San Francisco’s Pier 14 — on Wednesday when Steinle was killed.

As recently as October 2014 Sheriff Mirkarimi announced that his office would “no longer honor U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detainers unless they [were] supported by judicial determination of probably cause or with a warrant of arrest….” In other words, illegals would not be detained unless they met a threshold for detainment considered sufficient by the Sheriff regardless of ICE requests.

After Steinle’s murder, Trump said enough was enough. On July 3, he said, “This senseless and totally preventable act of violence committed by an illegal immigrant is yet another example of why we must secure our border immediately.”

I’m sure NASCAR fans will quickly rally behind these decisions. /sarc

That’s their business. and loss.

I never cared much for NASCAR. It’s only good at the start and the last 10 or so laps.

However, I always thought the Formula 1 racing is way more interesting.

NASCAR We looked at everything that was said and done and we heard from a lot of our partners and friends and factored all that in.

Hey, just like Miss Universe from Columbia. Take the event prize package and get lots of favor for going political against Trump.

This Lopez-Sanchez murderer was deportedFIVE times!

Sadly, most of the public won't know about this. The media helped Trump drown out the story.

Professional sports are becoming increasingly PC. I used to love pro football till it went all mushy and gay. Leave it to the liberals to ruin things.

Merriam-Webster Dictionary:

...”Definition of FASCISM for Kids: a political system headed by a dictator in which the government controls business and labor and opposition is not permitted.”...

NASCAR seems to be saying, “We’re in!”

Rush explained it’s because the first crop of Government Brainwashing Camps (schools) graduates are now running everything. In othr words, they hold the reins and this is what the commie NEA taught them from kinder-garten and beyond: the commie, racist, islamo Line.

I never thought I’d live to see the day when all leadership in the United States would go collectively insane. But, it is happening at breakneck speed. Perhaps it is time to seek alternative places to live.

NASCAR has been going down hill. Faster than Richard Petty.
