The only thine Geraldo Rivera did which I considered good was his show on CNBC during the OJ Simpson Trial. He had good guests and seemed fair. Of course, I was a liberal then, so my memories might not agree if I were to re-watch the show.
The Trump administration, and the press secretary has been really good at this, has been by accident/on purpose tripping all over this seemingly sacred distinction between actual criminals and mere illegal aliens. It really has been a months-long master class on the subtle use of rhetoric over time to undermine this previously effective donkey party lie.
The Left has absolutely no interest in a reasoned discussion in which both sides present information, and each side considers the other view, and then find some points of agreement, and some points of disagreement. Decent people can manage to do this. It’s not hard.
For the Left, it just boils down to: “I am 100% right and you are an awful person.”
Send every last one of them to Geraldo’s house. Let them take whatever they want from him.
The point about Rivera isn’t that he’s some sort of deluded liberal.
It’s that he’s a disgusting racist who is obsessed with “his” people coming here and hopefully taking over.
There’s not a single so-called “hispanic” of any stature in this country who isn’t like that.
Do you think he’d be making these excuses if it was millions of Chinese or *gasp* Austrian illegal aliens crashing the gates?
Not a chance.
Remember when Geraldo doh was jealous of Anthony Weiner and made a selfie wanting to show his stuff like Anthony?
What a clown this guy is.
The answer to Geraldo has always been, “Why hasn’t the Congress changed the laws regarding these ‘law abiding, USA loving, Patriotic, immigrants to allow them to live here and work?”
The democrats have held the entire Congress several times over the past 40 years. If this was so important to them one would think they would have acted.
Lots of these “debates” are really just ratings grabs. Geraldo stopped being a journalist before the turn of the century.
Hannity wasted many segments giving Geraldo a forum for his left-wing lunacy.
Ain’t Affirmative Action wonderful.
p
Every place in this country or abroad that has a huge influx of foreigners legal or illegal from certain areas and countries in the world faces a huge increase in crime. These statistics are very carefully and thoroughly obscured from public view, but despite this it is common knowledge. This is especially as it relates to rapidly accelerating rates of rapes of young girls and women.
Somehow Hiraldo and company completely ignore this undeniable truth.
YOU, Gerald Michael Riviera, are the bullshitter.
Puerto Ricans are being deported...back to America. Lol.
Many have tried but he just keeps getting back up again. Impossible to watch....but I have to wonder when I see he’s on News Nation with anyone, he never sits directly in front of the camera...he’s always sitting sideways - looking off to his left and why? As soon as he’s on, I change the channel but haven’t seen him sitting any differently...
So...
What was said???
Nobody cares what Rivera thinks.
Interesting exchange. My bottom line is to require a little binary logic on this matter. If you are here illegally, you are breaking the law. That makes you a criminal.
I realize that Democrats ooze compassion. So why not try to revise the law? They had decades to do so. Why leave millions in a state of limbo? All these people, we are told they are wonderful, all these people were left at legal risk.
My biggest objection to legalizing the illegals is that, according to theory and practice, it incentivizes more illegal behavior.
One of my gripes is that Democrat lawmakers do not care about the law. How can that be? That a lawmaker does not care about the law should be disqualifying. I wonder if it violates their oath of office.
