Trump to Bush: Illegal immigration not about 'love'
CNN ^ | 8/24/15 | Tom LoBianco

Posted on 08/24/2015 8:28:22 AM PDT by jimbo123

Republican front-runner Donald Trump gave some backhanded praise to his primary opponent, Jeb Bush, for traveling to the border, criticizing his past remarks on immigration and for being "low energy."

"I think it's great he's going to the border, I think he'll ... find out it's not an act of love," Trump told "Fox and Friends" on Monday morning. "I was down on the border. It's rough, tough, stuff. This is not love, it's other things going on."

Bush, who's in McAllen, Texas, on Monday for a tour of the border, has previously made comments in regards to illegal immigration where he called it a "different kind of crime" and an "act of love."

On Monday, Trump also weighed in on a new video showing alleged drug smugglers scaling the border fence between Arizona and Mexico.

"I was very impressed with the shape these guys were in, the way they got over that wall was actually incredible, carrying loads of drugs and on their back and when I was there I saw something that was amazing: the drugs go out and the money comes in," Trump said.

DONALD TRUMP IS RIGHT!!!
PLEASE SHARE THIS WITH YOUR LISTS!!
A VERY IMPORTANT piece if you want to fully understand the 14th Amendment argument! Folks, some really cunning and not so stupid people are on the verge of STEALING YOUR BIRTHRIGHT AND THAT OF YOUR CHILDREN AND GRAND CHILDREN!
If you don’t have time to read the entire thing, PLEASE at least read the paragraphs I’ve extracted below. If you’re STILL unclear why those on the left are slinging all this mud on Trump over this one, understand that a large percentage of those who come here ILLEGALLY are initially unable to fully support themselves until they plug into the underground/paid under the table economy and, because the left has created a welfare hammock for them, avail themselves of those programs (at which time many do both). Those programs create a “warm and fuzzy feeling” toward these leftists Democrats, almost guaranteeing they will become DEMOCRAT VOTERS once the left has succeeded in doing away with proof of citizenship in order to vote. (Not to belabor the point, but ask yourself WHY, during his recent trip to Kenya, obozo pledged over 50 million bucks to that corrupt government for A VOTER ID PROGRAM as his Just Us department has blown well over that amount trying to PREVENT STATES FROM REQUIRING PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP HERE??)
Sorry for the rant. Here are those paragraphs that condense much of the legal info in this piece: (See the link below for the entire piece.)

P. A. Madison, a modern day master of constitutional analysis, points out that “since illegal aliens are unlawfully in the US, their native country has a proper and primary claim of allegiance on the child. Thus, the completeness of their allegiance to the US is impaired, which therefore precludes automatic citizenship.” Slam dunk obvious, I’d say.
Also, Rep. Aaron Sargent, a representative from California during the Naturalization Act of 1870 debates, said the 14th Amendment’s citizenship clause was not a de-facto right for aliens to obtain citizenship. Significantly, none of his contemporaries disputed that assertion.
Adding to this mix, here is a little case law since the 14th’s ratification.
In the Slaughterhouse Cases(1873), the Supreme Court observed that the 14th Amendment overturned the Dred Scott decision by making all persons born within the United States and subject to its jurisdiction, citizens of the US; the ruling went on to point out “that [the 14th Amendment’s] main purpose was to establish the citizenship of the Negro” and that “the phrase ‘subject to its jurisdiction’ was intended to exclude from its operation children of ministers, consuls, AND citizens or subjects of foreign states born within the United States”, thus reinforcing Sen. Howard’s construction above. So, since they cannot be subject to US jurisdiction, children of citizens of foreign sovereignities and children of foreign ministers/consuls/ambassadors cannot be lawfully considered US Citizens. Makes perfect sense.

Trump is wrong. The invading freeloaders LOVE taking “free” sh*t from the gringos.

Pretty impressive how Trump’s out there in the media on an almost daily basis and manages to comment on just about every significant news story. He definitely looks like a guy who wants the job.

I’ve always thought that he (or one of his advisers) reads Free Republic. The guy is right on top of the latest (sometimes obscure) news nuggets.

He’s said he reads Drudge, so that’s probably where he gets some of the obscure stuff. It’d be a real benefit for any elected official to actually follow any online conservative news site at all. There are things they won’t hear about anywhere else.

I always thought that he (or one of his advisors) reads FR.

Those that read FR will sometimes use phrasing that is common to FR but not many other places, I suspect. Sometimes Trump says things that sound like that.

Also, he knows stuff like Jeff Sessions is the unspoken (in the media) true conservative hero and that we're not kidding about the wall.

(Pure speculation.)
