The Chamber of Commerce lost its clout and a ton of money backing losers Ike JEB! They are licking their wounds in the underbrush somewhere.

Until it can actually be declared DOA I don’t trust this is over.

Don’t trust our uniparty leadership and personally don’t trust Ryan McRomneybot.

Trump and Ryan converse.

Trump: Paul, you see me going around the country speaking to these crowds of many thousands.

Ryan: Yes.

Trump: Two years from now, I could be doing it in your small district — objective to be decided.

“GOP leaders, including House Speaker Paul Ryan, have quietly ended an unpopular 2015 program to annually outsource another 198,000 blue-collar jobs to lower-paid foreign workers. “

Trump already has their testicles in his lock box! The next 4 and probably 8 years are going to be a wonderful change. Trump has awakened the “real people” in this country and the so-called “GOP leadership” can already see that they’ve had their balls cut off.

But, but... Cruz offered the Gang of Eight a quintupling of that 65-66,000 figure, recommending increasing it to 350,000.

No wonder this great moment is on the QT, with two heartless big mouths, like Ryan and Cruz, silenced for once.

I’ll have more of that, please.

In most advanced countries the amount required is something like a million. In some countries its more.

I think this is how and why within a couple of years almost all of the motels in the US are run by Indians, and the convenience stores by arabs. It occurred a decade or so ago, but when it happened it happened over a relatively short time span. It is a way to get entry to the US with a relatively small investment. I believe companies are helping them do it. Maybe someone can tell me I’m wrong.

OK, now wait. I actually read the whole article.

I’ve been saying for a long time that, bringing in a million legal and a million illegal immigrants over a couple of decades, you are making profound demographic changes to the country. You are essentially replacing native-born Americans of every ethnic background.

But it turns out I’m not even considering another 2 million work visas being handed out like candy.

And they wanted to increase even that number. Do you wonder why a kid getting out of high school, or college, or home from the service, can’t find a job? He’s competing with 40 million foreign workers. Not to mention the factories that are relocated to the Pacific Rim. There are lots of jobs out there, but they are importing the people who will do them.
