I’m no Trump fan, but this gal has been a shill for the open borders lobby for years.

Chavez is no conservative and NR is no longer a conservative magazine. Ignore her.

Trump said “illegal” immigrants.

No problem for the biased author.

NR has gone collectivist so they need to take their message elsewhere.

Liar, liar, pants on fire. He is not talking about immigrants. He is talking about criminals illegally crossing our border. Immigrants are legally here by virtue of obeying our laws to gain entry into our country.

Ms. Chavez: Quit telling me what to do. And stop saying “immigrants”. It’s ILLEGAL immigrants he/we are talking about. Sick of libs twisting the message.
