Trump: U.S. won't become a 'migrant camp' [nor refugee camp]
The Washington Times ^ | June 18, 2018 | Stephen Dinan

Posted on 06/18/2018 10:26:08 AM PDT by jazusamo

President Trump challenged Democrats to “come to the table” to fix the country’s immigration system, saying Monday that the current battle is over whether the U.S. should have borders.

Speaking at the White House Mr. Trump said the U.S. “will not be a migrant camp.”

He said if Congress can find agreement on a way to update what he called the “worst immigration laws in the entire world” it could be a trendsetting move for the rest of the globe.

“Just remember — a country without borders is not a country at all. We need borders, we need security, we need safety,” Mr. Trump said.

Just during WW2, over 1 million Americans were killed and wounded – all to defend USA from illegal invaders…. The whole country supported the war effort protecting USA from illegal invaders….

We’re headed for a race war. Tribalism rules above rationality.

I didn’t grow up hating Mexicans. After all that I’ve seen, I certainly do now to the point where I can’t even eat Mexican food, which is about the only decent thing to come out of that benighted nation.

We don’t need just a wall. We need minefields and machine gun nests.

We need borders, we need security, we need safety,” Mr. Trump said.

That's right! How's that WALL coming along?

” the U.S. will not be a migrant camp.”

Well California already is, and look how happy the rest of you are with us.

The Bushies tried to elect Neel Kashkari governor last time around, and he was like the cherry on top of the whole California Migrant Camp sundae.

A pity that Jeb! wasn’t elected president to that every other state in the union could have joined us in our migrant camp glory.

Of course, if there is no mass deportation of the millions of illegals infesting this state you will be joining us in this mess anyway, it just won’t be as quickly as it would if a Bush or a Clinton was running the show.

The fight was surrendered in 1987 when Reagan signed the first amnesty bill. The final defeat came on 1-20-09 when 0bama began his “transformation” of this once great nation.

I give DJT credit for trying to fight this losing battle. But between the 1987 amnesty bill and 0bamas reign of destruction the damge is irrepareable. The demographics have turned and the vast majority of those under 35 are 0bama style liberals. The good folks here FR are rapidly becoming the minority, if we aren’t already the minority.

The country is lost.

The democrats are on the wrong side of everything. They care more about criminals/illegals more than Americans.

Think about this, even worse.

Now that a minor is a “get out of jail free card” for illegals, whose to say that we won’t get more sex trafficking. So some 40 year old scumbag comes in with 12 and 15 year old girls and says that they are his (or her) daughters, who’s to say if he’s not going to set up a whore house for pedophiles?

The HHS official said as of Friday, HHS was already holding 11,500 children,... which means the total could hit 30,000 by August...This is the mad rush for the border before immigration goes thru...

It’s like the mexicans are ‘throwing their kids over the border’ as ‘Insurance’ the parents and family will be allowed in later.

I trust Trump on immigration.

However.

Trump should not trust any immigration legislation the GOPe Congress asks him to sign without going over every single word in it.

Where are the linguine-spined GOP’ers defending DJT from the the open-border socialists?
Cooked linguine-spined GOP congressmen, of course. At least uncooked linguine starts out stiff...
