So how many MS-13 gangbangers are you going to let crash at your place?

I googled him, and turned up this:

“Columnist Rex Huppke, who spent years reporting on Chicago’s gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community.”

Just like a liberal, expecting us to pay for something he wants.

Maybe I should self-deport.

Deal. I'll chip in for the ticket.

[The idea that immigrants don’t learn English, don’t assimilate, don’t contribute, take jobs from American workers, and are more prone to be criminals has been knocked down by study after study after study and is in no way supported by data.]

Lie after lie after lie after lie.

Nevermind, he said he should self deport. I think that’s a great idea.

His attempt at sarcasm and to slam our president failed.

Of course leaving the Chicago Killing fields might be a good move.

If he was in L.A. I would give him a free ride to the Airport.

He also mentioned “undocumented Immigrants”.

There is no such thing. In order to become an Immigrant in this Country you are given Official Government Documents which you must produce if asked by Government Officials.

Without those Documents, you are nothing but an Illegal Invader and a Felon.

What’s the song that goes: “Take a handful of sugar and drink a bottle of turpentine”?

>>1) My culture and my Catholic upbringing are incompatible with the the idea that mothers and their children seeking asylum should be separated from each other once they enter the country.

No one is tearing babies from their mothers and then kicking the mother out. When we deport you, take your brats with you!

>>2) I do speak English, but not in a way that’s compatible with the current language used by this administration and its supporters.

Not speaking English in a certain way is irrelevant. The phone says, “Press 2 for English”, not “Press 2 for Conservative English”

>>3) Lastly, the country I come from taught me to understand history and recognize that things called “facts” are worth considering.

That’s just ridiculous. This Progressive femboy probably thinks that slavery began and ended in the USA and that racism is a uniquely white American phenomenon.

>>and is in no way supported by data.

Nothing this clown says is supported by data unless the data has been manipulated and normalized to create nice curves that demonstrate what the Progs want it to show.

Here’s the thing: If you can handle freedom, you can leave. Clear?

There's an extremely important element in this essay.

Many Americans have had the America bred out of them because of the government indoctrination centers graduating socialists into a Godless society.

Rex is right ... (in the piece) ... he can't and shouldn't be here.

The English he learned, isn't.

The history he was taught, isn't.

The culture he was told was American, isn't.

Sorry, Huppke, it’s not “Donald Trump’s America”, it’s OUR America and President Trump is doing what’s required to make it great again.

We normal Americans are lovin’ it !!!
