Trump Softening on Illegals? Result Of Our Third-World Values.
Townhall.com ^ | August 26, 2016 | Bryan Crabtree

Posted on 08/26/2016 10:31:12 AM PDT by Kaslin

Donald Trump has no choice but to soften his view on deporting eleven million illegal immigrants. I'm not disagreeing with the idea of deporting these illegals. I'm simply explaining why he has to alter his position.

Over the last two decades we have allowed our country to become overwhelmed by Third World values. What are these values? Third World values are a complete distrust of the system - so much in fact that you believe you should overrun it. It’s not just a movement of restoring the democracy, it’s an arrogance of vanity and self-interest that puts one’s interests above everyone else.

We are seeing this with the civil unrest created by #blacklivesmatter - the burning of the American flag by immigrants at Trump campaign rallies and via white-collar crimes across the country. Moreover, many minority groups have created a ‘them against the rest of us’ culture.

Hillary Clinton is a perfect example of Third World values. Regardless of the intent of our laws, she finds a way to take advantage of her position of power and maximize her benefit no matter what the collateral damage. African, South American and Middle Eastern governments abuse their people and overpower opposition. In America, we have already seen nearly 8 years of lawlessness. This is the first step in becoming like these Third World governments.

Trump skyrocketed in the Republican primary by playing to the anger and disgust of many voters who were tired of watching our country behave like these nations. However, he underestimated how much backlash he would encounter from the media and ‘the left’ on the idea of deportations. He has no choice but to accept the reality that this country has been overwhelmed by values that are inconsistent with our Constitution. These values prevail over common sense, logic and the rule of law.

We have allowed hundreds of thousands of refugees, many who believe in Sharia Law or other ideals that are antithetical to our constitution, to enter this country. We have allowed a steady influx of gang members, drug dealers and political refugees from Mexico, Central and South America. We are transforming communities across this country into a hodgepodge of competing cultural values with no common thread of unity.

We have lost our greatest strength: a dominant culture built upon trust, faith, fairness and honesty. Instead, we have created a culture segregated into sections of competing values (which manifested the very conditions the refugees fled). In addition, of the 11 million illegal immigrants, there are millions more family and friends who would be affected by their deportation. In this case: When a single person’s interests/desires is put ahead of the rest, it destroys our culture.

When we create unrealistic expectations, we suffer extreme consequences. I’m reminded of an accounting disaster in my housing company many years ago. For several months, my accounting department failed to bill a $39 monthly fee to my independent contractors for Internet services. When this was discovered in an audit, the total sum was in excess of $30,000. We had accidentally created a pattern and a culture which developed an ‘expectation’ that that service was free. Needless to say, there was outrage when we began billing that fee again. Our country has created several financial and social expectations that are very dangerous to our future.

For years, we have avoided the enforcement of our immigration and community laws. Tens of thousands of criminal, gun violations avoid prosecution. Millions of immigrants pour across the borders without being deported. Leftist politicians have been given an unfettered platform to attack our police force. Liberal indoctrination has penetrated our schools and universities. Affirmative-action policy has created a double standard (and reversal back to segregation). Anyone who dares challenge these destructive dereliction of American duties is labeled racist, xenophobic or bigoted. As a result, there is silence - no conversation.

Enter Donald Trump. He created a firestorm of outrage and pushback which catapulted him to the Republican nomination for president. For a moment, it appeared that all of this political correctness was being systematically destroyed. As usual, the left and the media amped up the pressure and went on a full assault against Trump for attempting to return us to the values that were instrumental in our success: logic, reason and candor.

I never believed Trump would be able to deport eleven million immigrants. I'm in favor of the policy, but I did not think Congress would ever support such a move. Clearly, he has had a moment of awakening. He realizes that this nation, now overwhelmed with Third World values, must be coddled into agreement and not forced. His answer? “Enforce the laws.” The laws are clear: If you are not a citizen, you are to be deported. This is the new ‘politically astute’ Donald Trump - teleprompter in tow.

Emotional people, lacking logic and business sense, now overwhelm our population. They are uninformed about how issues and policy can directly affect them. They are easily manipulated by emotional pleas of the left, and they do not have the resolve to fight for greatness as did the generations that preceded us.

There are only two ways to re-shape this nation in such a way that it can realize its potential. A president Trump must initiate policy which creates economic-lift with prosperity that benefits everyone (who works hard). When the money flows, they’ll finally understand. The alternative is that we must face a financial or military calamity that forces us to wake up to reality (through intense pain).

I pray it doesn’t come to the latter.

They’ve been saying 11 million illegals for at least 11 years. Can’t they do better than that? There must be 2-4 million in Texas alone.

I never quite understood the advantage of “touch back” as part of the policy, but your post makes it clearer.

They have to go back is clear, they have to be evaluated (have a hearing) is clear. If they are productive, how can they come back?

The answer is that there is not specified time before they can re apply. If the hearing decided they met the requirements for legal entry — no criminal activity, good record in school, good record on the job, no welfare fraud Etc. Then they could be brought back at once. The catch is that they must reset the time clock as far as when they can apply for any enhancement to their status. Like any legal entry there is a specified time for this.

Oh, and as to the hearing. My suggestion is to allow the immigrant to waive the hearing and go straight to the extreme vetting described above. If they do this, many can be handled without an overburden to our court system.

Note all this is after the wall and the deportation of people who have been involved in criminal activities.

Actually, Pierson explained that ‘softening’ meant a use of different words that were more clear about what he meant.

So, he’s ‘softening’ rhetoric....not softening policies.

He said as much last night.

favor of the policy, but I did not think Congress would ever support such a move.

Congress would resist, but the laws are already on the books. They could pass new legislation I guess but he could veto it.

I think it matters a lot what the ultimate voter results are and for the first time since 1948 I have no real grasp of how this election will turn out for two reasons.

1. I have no clue how many of the real voting population are now firmly in the Marxist category.
2. Voter fraud is very real since we have so much of our vote counting done in one way or another with computers, some even outside control of the US.

I hope I have a better idea by late October or Early November, but if Hillary's poll numbers are even close to real then the Republic I was born in is already gone.

Coming back ahead of those legally in line is unjust. We have enough injustice in this country.

Nice truffle you found here Kaslin.
As the author points out, the left was attacking Trump’s “secure the border, deport the aliens here illegally!” as we challenged Obama’s absurd statements: “I’ll lower the Earth’s temperature and level of the oceans.”

Trump is now explaining that what he is proposing can be done—and it ain’t grandiloquent bragging, like the dunghill rooster crowing—if you show you can do it.

Saying what you want to do, that’s making proposals and they are usually straight forward. As tactical and strategic matters, the solutions to the ongoing invasion of our country—enabled and facilitated by both parties for 30 years—are complex and multifaceted.

As Trump heads to the WH, as usual he’s playing three dimensional chess, the right hand not knowing what the left is doing, while Uniparty and their MSM scratch their heads wondering what king he’s taking next. But he’s got to get to 1600 Pennsylvania before he can do anything.

He promised to secure our borders. You either believe him or you don’t. He knows what brung him to the dance.
The alternative? Four more years of another irresponsible, scofflaw tyrant with yet another mozlim Wormtongue whispering in her ear.

Go Trump. Win win win. Break the bat over her.

That is correct. Besides, I am not a he and never have been.

Besides, do these two baby twins look like boys? I am the one with the big grin who's holding the doll, the other one is my late twin sister.

I believe Trump is making a few adjustments so as to allow for a BIGGER TENT>

I feel he will make it an UPHILL Journey for any and ALL illegales.

I would think 60 to 75% of illegals would head back to Mexico if they were confronted with paying back income tax on money they earned.

Trust that Trump is making adjustments in order to WIN the election.

I don't think his core goals have really changed.

Yup. Everyone talks about deporting illegals as if we will be putting them on a gazillion busses headed for Mexico. Most likely with gangs like MS13, probably yes.

.

With the rest, remove incentives for staying here, including employers hiring them illegally, but not in the payroll.

Law enforcement and no freebies will cause a huge number to SELF-DEPORT.

Trump should call a televised special session of Congress and identify the open borders and amnesty pukes and accuse them of violating their oath of office to protect the LAWS of the United States.

Then he should have ICE officials arrest Ryan, Cruz, McCain and the rest, as accessories to illegal immigration.

While this idea is impractical and theatrical, doing so would shed light on the lawbreaking traitors in Congress.

Let's also not forget the 19 Saudi "visitors" with EXPIRED visas who killed 3,000 Americans on 911.

If US law were enforced, this would not have happened.
