Chilling Trump video attacks Bush for calling illegal immigration ‘act of love’
Washington Post ^ | 8/31/15 | Philip Rucker

Posted on 08/31/2015 1:17:32 PM PDT by jimbo123

Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump released a chilling video Monday attacking opponent Jeb Bush for once suggesting that undocumented immigrants entered the United States as "an act of love."

The 15-second video, which Trump posted to Instagram and Twitter, begins with the text: "Jeb Bush's Thoughts on Illegal Immigration."

It plays sound of Bush, a former Florida governor, saying of undocumented immigrants, "Yes, they broke the law, but it's not a felony. It's an act of love."

Over the sound of Bush talking, with harrowing music playing, the Trump video flashes mug shots of Francisco Sanchez, who was charged in the San Francisco killing of Kate Steinle; Santana Gaona, a Texas man found guilty of a murder; and Brian Omar Hyde, who was charged with three killings in Florida.

Then the screen turns black and, in white lettering, asks: "Love? Forget love. It's time to get tough!"

Donald Trump will win the nomination easily as long as he keeps talking about immigration the way he has so far. Our problem with legal and illegal immigration is something that has to be solved first for us to even have a chance at solving our numerous other problems. It's also the one issue that our politicians have refused to address in any serious manner whatsoever. It's the one issue that almost all of them are completely out of touch with the vast majority of American citizens across the political spectrum. Trump is the only candidate on either side who isn't afraid to talk about the issue and how to solve it. That is the reason behind Trump's meteoric rise in popularity and as long as he doesn't change that he will win since there's not an alternative on this issue. It's as simple as that.

I, like most people, didn't really take Trump serious or care about his candidacy when I first heard he was going to run, but it didn't take long before I was supporting him based on what he was saying about immigration. Herman Cain lead early in 2011 because he came out with a strong statement against illegal immigration, but he wasn't ready to deal with the huge money and media attacks that were directed against him because of that comment. That's something Trump doesn't have a problem with because he is comfortable in this kind of situation and knows how to fight back. He's not going to crack under the pressure like most people would. Not many have the personality or experience to know how to fight back like Trump can. Most try to backtrack and go on the defensive until they self-destruct under this kind of pressure. He is what we need when it comes to dealing with legal and illegal immigration while fighting off the huge money and media attacks that are directed at anyone who sides with the American people on the issue.

All Trump has to do is keep repeating his immigration stance and people will support him all the way to the White house regardless of anything else. and he's too smart to backtrack on the issue or stop talking about it. He was smart enough to know he had a winning stance on this issue long before he decided to run for President, and I trust his campaign promises a lot more than those who tip toe around the question. He's the only one who's even saying the right things on the issue so people don't need to choose who they trust more on this issue. Attacking Trump on other issues by candidates who are much weaker on the immigration issue will never work either for obvious reasons. Trump success isn't hard to understand at all, and he's not just going to crash and burn when there isn't any alternative to him on this issue. It's sad that he's the only one who shares the views of the vast majority of this nations citizens but that's the reality of the situation. There is no other candidate that's going to pick up the majority of Trump's supporters if he left the race because there is no one who shares his stance on immigration, and that's the primary reason for Trump's success.

Trump will win over enough democrats and independents in the general election to win based solely on this issue. He will win the same percentage, or more, of the Hispanic and black vote as any republican has in a republican presidential election. A lot of legal immigrants resent illegals, and most of the American born Hispanics were raised as Americans and don't relate to Mexico and illegal foreigners anymore than I relate to Europe.

I think the Democrats and Republicans have a gentleman’s agreement about what they can say. Both parties want illegal immigration so they cannot say anything about it.
