'I don't think so, darling': Donald Trump dismisses woman defending illegal immigration

Colin Campbell

1h

Donald Trump held a town-hall-style event on Thursday, and his first question was from a woman who appeared to criticize his hard-line approach to illegal immigration.

The woman began by saying she was from Southern California.

"You live in Southern California? What are you doing here? Are you a liberal Democrat, by any chance?" Trump joked at the Exeter, New Hampshire, event.

She continued by saying she had friends who immigrated to the US illegally.

..snip...

Trump responded by accusing her of asking the question on behalf of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vermont), a left-wing Democratic candidate.

"Who told you to be here? Bernie?" he asked her. "No, no, this is a Bernie plant. This is a Bernie plant. All right, OK, I understand your question."

The questioner no longer had her mic after that, but the same woman reportedly then yelled at Trump that immigrants were part of the backbone of the US.

"I don't think so, darling," Trump shot back. "I don't think so. I don't think so. No, I don't think so. They're not the backbone."

Waste of time.

Trump should have three groups at his meetings /rallies.

Group one is registered voters. Ivanka sits up from and verifies the voters registration and gives out/sells a T-shirt.

Group two is completed voter registration forms. Completed forms are then collected and delivered to the precinct location on the spot.

Group three is for those who need help filling out the forms. Again, completed forms are hand delivered to a precinct location.

I had a local politician resister me when I was 18 to vote for poppy bush and his council seat.

Instead of Arkansas and silly events like this, Trump should spend the time between IA and NH to REGISTER people.

This would help avoid the mess Trump had in IA

[Probably most people that work in Trump hotels came here illegally. Think Trump considers some of them friends?]

What proof do you have? Do you work at HR in one of Trump’s properties??

If not, then you’re making yourself sound stupid with baseless accusations.

Pay attention to what he said: Some Some Some is a word which has never meant All! He said “Some can come back...the Good Ones.” How people contrive to make others believe he meant ALL to Come Back is beyond me.

I am a Cruz supporter.

But this was well done by Trump. And much more of the message he needs to get across for his candidacy to be successful. The whining won't work for him.

Tell that to the 200 undocumented Polish construction workers who you paid $5/hour, worked 7 days a week, were given no overtime and no construction helmets or filtration masks. But I guess that's just the "Art of the Deal." SMDH

If he could deliver gems like this with defense and jobs as well as immigration, and not get bogged down with most of the other issues that relatively few fixate on in reality, I think he'd have the nomination and the general in the bag.

Conservatives are always accused of being hateful, disruptive and violent yet it’s the Liberals who are always invading & disrutpitng our rallies and conventions, suppressing free speech on campus and in the workplace and violating the rights of Americans to freely travel the highways.

Prove that. So far all we have is a bunch of unsourced accusations from the 1970s that, conviently no one can document or prove.

I say you are shamelessly lying. Prove your accusation.

But of course, you cannot. Like most paid political scumbags, you just here to post a lie and run hoping the lie sticks.
