The wave is BUILDING...!!

I have never seen such a wave of stupidity in my entire life. Don't you even listen to what Trump says?

I'm going to give you a nice excerpt from the Fox Business Debate transcript, so that there is absolutely no way you can accuse me of taking this out of context. Read it carefully in his own words:

BARTIROMO: Mr. Trump, a federal appeals court just dealt a blow to the Obama administration's plan to prevent the deportation of 5 million people living in this country illegally. The White House is appealing to the Supreme Court.

At the heart of this issue is the effect that illegal immigrants are having on our economy, what will you do about it?

TRUMP: I was so happy yesterday when I saw that decision come down. That was an unbelievable decision.

(APPLAUSE)

And we don't have enough of those decisions coming down. He of the executive order, because nobody wants to listen to him, including the Democrats, so he just goes around signing executive orders. That was a great day. And, frankly, we have to stop illegal immigration. It's hurting us economically. It's hurting us from every standpoint. It's causing tremendous difficulty with respect to drugs and what that does to many of our inner cities in particular.

And it really is -- was such an unbelievable moment because the courts have not been ruling in our favor. And it was a 2-1 decision. And it was a terrific thing that happened.

And I will tell you, we are a country of laws. We need borders. We will have a wall. The wall will be built. The wall will be successful. And if you think walls don't work, all you have to do is ask Israel. The wall works, believe me. Properly done. Believe me.

(CHEERING AND APPLAUSE)

BARTIROMO: Can we just send 5 million people back with no effect on economy?

TRUMP: You are going to have to bring people -- you are going to have to send people out. Look, we're a country...

BARTIROMO: So what will you do?

TRUMP: Maria, we're a country of laws. We either have a country or we don't have a country. We are a country of laws. Going to have to go out and they will come back but they are going to have to go out and hopefully they get back.

But we have no choice if we're going to run our country properly and if we're going to be a country.

There you have it in his own words. Trump says illegal immigration is hurting us economically. He will build a big beautiful wall with a big beautiful door, and let them back in. He says he wants them back. Having the same people, future Democrats all, that were hurting us economically come back will make it all wonderful once they're legal?

I've been saying for months that Trump's plan IS a boomerang amnesty just like what Kay Bailey Hutchison proposed in 2007. That plan was rejected as a closet amnesty back then, but FReepers, of all conservatives, are now so desperate they go blind, because Trump knows how to sell a complete fantasy.

I play to people's fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do. That's why a little hyperbole never hurts. People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular. Donald Trump, The Art of the Deal, 1987 Such a "deal." See tag line.
