Democrats not ready to govern, says Trump, citing Tibbetts murder, other immigration-related crime

COLUMBUS, Ohio — President Trump said Friday night that Republicans will prevail in the midterm elections because Democrats “are not in a position to govern” with lax immigration policies that he said led to the death of Iowa teenager Mollie Tibbetts and others.

Speaking to the Ohio state Republican Party’s annual dinner, Mr. Trump predicted, “This November we are going to win really big.”

“Today’s Democrats are not just extreme, they are really not in a position to govern,” he said. “They are just not in a position to govern when you look at what they are for — open borders and crime.”

The president raised the case of Ms. Tibbetts, who was killed while jogging, allegedly by an illegal immigrant from Mexico who stalked her.

“Everybody is talking about Mollie. Everybody loved her,” the president said.

He accused the media of downplaying the murder due to the defendant’s alleged illegal status.

“When they found out that it was this horrible, illegal immigrant that viciously killed her, all of a sudden that story went down,” Mr. Trump said. “They didn’t want to cover it the way it should have been covered. But what happened to Mollie was a disgrace. And our hearts go out, we mourn for Mollie’s family.”

The truth is we do not have secure borders because BOTH parties have wanted them kept open.

“I am Mollie Tibbits and I am one of 5000 Americans that are stalked, raped and murdered every year by illegal aliens”.

Illegal immigrant crime is only part of the problem. Uncontrolled legal immigration brings budget busting welfare costs, degradation of our common language, and people who want to vote themselves into the wealth of those who built and fought for this nation. The showcase immigrants who are high tech geniuses can’t make up for these problems.

The democrats ARE ready to lead the country into utter destruction, thank you very much. And that’s exactly what they’ll do, in or out of office.

Democrats don’t even want to govern.

They want to REIGN.
