watched live , thought it was a bomb ....weak , disconnected from anything much relevant . Trump seemed distracted ; looking forward to posing with Border Guards . No cigar , they pulled the rug . Hope he at least spent all day exploring the actual border , being shown around ; points of crossing , etc
Why did the Border Patrol back out at the last second? That’s a question that needs an answer.
>>Why did the Border Patrol back out at the last second?
AFL-CIO national office jumped on the Border Patrol local to cancel the invite.
See:
Trump said that their ‘union’ or D.C. ordered them to stand down
It's kind of sad when Trump had to travel to Laredo, TX to find adults running a government.
Indeed, especially places shown HERE. Too bad he didn't pose by the first photo - and ask the feminists what they thought about the fourth photo. Coulda gotten a lot of political mileage out of the trip but he appears to have missed the boat.
The reporters were like barking dogs, I think they were disappointed they couldn’t get a rise out of Trump. Pace yourselves kids, pace yourselves.
These reporters are embarrassing.
Laredo mayor is brainwashed
“immigration reform is required is needed we need protection we need to secure the border but we need the immigration act or bill”
He just put a reporter (read Progressive heckler) in his place. It was beautiful...
If these reporters could stop bending over for Barack and question HIM aggressively.
I expected to be disappointed. I am so impressed.
This wasn’t a rambling stump speech. He took hard questions. NO limitations.
Most politicians won’t DARE to do that.
This was incredible.
Is it just me or did DT look extremely angry?
Not that I could blame him or anything....
Trump is calling for ending illegal immigration that takes away jobs from Americans, and the end of outsourcing American jobs...
...and is not supported by the AFL/CIO.
Wake up, union guys. Your union bosses care less about you than anyone else.
I totally disagree.
Trump does not hide from anybody. He leads and he faces his enemies and fights them wherever they are.
Compare this to Hillary Clinton who has to date given 2 press conferences. In the last 2 months Trump has given at least 40-50.
If anything, Trump is showing tremendous courage and keeps attacking, and attacking and attacking. No other candidate shows this kind of courage.
There is nothing weak about what he did here.
Yes he did and he had good reason to be....the guy that interviewed him screwed him royally....and The Donald isn’t going to sit back and take it....
I had been surprised that a union organization was going to greet Trump. Unions are democrats. The local union was called from Washington and told to blow Trump off for fear of making him look good.
Trump is deep in the heart of the vipers and he is making them squirm!!!!
I totally agree. Trump has got the courage of a titan.
Compare him to Hillary Clinton who is hiding from the press and unable to face reality.
Trump will win the nomination.
No other candidate has this kind of overwhelming courage.
