This should play on cable news...

Did Trump Borrow His Immigration Speech From Bill Clinton?

If you ask Hillary, Trump is a racist xenophobe for his stance on immigration.

But take a look at this video from 1995 – http://usatransnationalreport.org/2016/09/03/did-trump-borrow-his-immigration-speech-from-bill-clinton/

Seems to be that Trump cribbed part of Bill Clinton’s SOTU address.

If he did, I hoped it didn't have any pecker tracks on it.

Wow! I hope we get to see this played again and again.

Hillary and the media will have a hard time defending their position.

If the scumbag major media ever dared re-air this part of Bill Clinton’s 1995 SOTU, they’d only do it under headlines that screamed “TRUMP INCAPABLE OF ORIGINAL THOUGHT, STEALS POLICY FROM DEMS BEFORE ADDING RACISM AND SEXISM TO AVOID DETECTION”

We are beyond Pravda levels of media propaganda if there isn’t universal clamor from every media outlet, starting tomorrow for her defeat or imprisonment after the FBI email release, much less these amazingly obvious comparisons of Trump’s “Racist” immigration policy to Slick Willy’s 1995 position.

My transcription of Bill Clinton's words in 1995:
All Americans, not only in the states most heavily affected but in every place in this country are rightly disturbed by the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country.

The jobs they hold might otherwise be held by citizens or legal immigrants, the public service they use impose burdens on our taxpayers.

That's why our administration has moved aggressively to secure our borders more by hiring a record number of new border guards, by deporting twice as many criminal aliens as ever before, by cracking down on illegal hiring, by barring welfare benefits to illegal aliens.

In the budget I will present to you, we will try to do more, to speed the deportation of illegal aliens who are arrested for crimes, and to better identify illegal aliens in the workplace, as recommended by the commission headed by former congresswoman Barbara Jordan.

We are a nation of immigrants, but we are also a nation of laws. It is wrong and ultimately self-defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of immigration laws we have seen in recent years and we must do more to stop it.

Vote Trump!

Of the Presidents since the last amnesty, Bill Clinton is the shining star for enforcement.

Both of the Bush Presidents were worse.

What? The LSM hasn’t accused Trump of plagiarism yet? How funny.

Bill Clinton would have had to make an original statement at some point during his decades in politics for anyone to copy him.

Unless Trump said "I did not have sex with that woman" or "It depends on what the meaning of is is" he is in the clear.
