The Governor of California Just Slammed Donald Trump’s Wall Idea Lucinda Shen Mar 4

Not everybody is a fan of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump’s hallmarking immigration control policy--namely, his proposed wall between the U.S. and Mexico.

Now, Jerry Brown, governor of the state with the most Mexican immigrants, has reportedly joined the team.

Brown, the Democratic governor of California told Bloomberg that Trump’s proposal to build a wall between the U.S. and Mexico and force the latter to finance it would be “absolutely preposterous.”

"It would create such tension with our closest neighbor that, probably, a dumber idea I can't imagine," Brown, who has been in office since 2011, continued. “It’s dumber than it is dangerous.”

The majority of Mexican immigrants headed for the U.S. migrate to California--about 37%, vs. the second-most popular state, Texas, which sees 21%, according to the Migration Policy Institute.

Brown has been a drooling idiot for 40 years. Some things never change.

He should use his new bullet train to bring in the Mexicans. I hear it will be done by 2030 and only be 56 billion over budget

Just wished I'd have been reading his obit, rather than Nancy Reagan's. Jerry Brown has done inestimable damage to California.

Jerry Brown doesn’t like Trump’s ideas?

ANOTHER endorsement for Trump! :)

Politicians live in fear of, or pander to, the voting block of illegal Mexicans, people who were Mexican until 4 or 5 ears ago, and to the American Hispanics who are more loyal to brown than to the USA.

I’d like to see somebody slam Moonbeam’s head against the wall, again and again.

Gov’na Moonbeam spews.

Must be worried about not being able to keep all his illegal housekeepers and gardeners.

"It would create such tension with our closest neighbor"

Brown is such a Communist AH. What does he think they have done to us for decades while people like him stood and gawked at it.

Those neighbors he speaks of have robbed, ran over, knifed, shot, raped, killed and maimed tens of thousands of innocent American.

Not to mention costing the American tax payer hundreds of billion in medical, judicial expenses, and totally choked off our hospitals and social services and on and on.

I would debate this AH myself, then throw him off the stage.

Governor Moonbeam, slamming the wall, I’m shocked!!

He wants to give all the invaders driver’s licenses, in state tuition, I think he even wants to allow them to vote.

When you have a state full of illegals, one has to be careful what they say. What ever the population there is now, it must be close to 50% Mexican whether legal or not. Maybe Trump has a plan to Tax the illegals?
