It's not that what he said isn't true or that I disagree with his position on the contrary stopping illegals is a primary issue for me. But having an obnoxious character like Trump with his high negatives makes it a terrible idea to allow him to be the poster boy for this cause. It allows his image to project onto the cause and tarnishing it imo. And the media will just use him to further demonize the cause, conflating this obnoxious jerk with everything anti-illegals. No good will come of it in the end,
“And the media will just use him to further demonize the cause.”
The media will pick apart and try to demonize anyone the conservatives put forward. The same things the media says about Trump are about the same things they ridiculed Sarah Palin for - stupid, ignorant, loose cannon, no experience, not vetted, etc.
