You have a question?

All Trump supporters are not racist but if you are a racist the overwhelming odds say you are a Trump supporter.

I hate to say this, but the Left has overplayed the race card and now nobody cares when they cry wolf. I’m scared to think of what that might mean for Jews.

White people got tired of hearing that not liking Obama’s policies meant that they were racist. Whites are going to turn out in even greater numbers for Trump in 2020. The Left has gone completely insane, kicking people out of restaurants for political beliefs, but screaming and crying when a baker doesn’t want to be forced to bake a cake for a gay couple.

If you keep comparing Trump to Hitler, what happens when there is a real hitler? Why would anyone believe or listen to you?

You have a question?

What came from the WH? The article seems to be based on career ICE.

Or at least what came from the Trump WH?

Going to be pretty hard to overplay the race card with this administration.

What I posted but I made a mistake.

What happens when a real racist Hitler shows up?  Who will listen?

Be very, very careful when crying racism.

So now you can start with that article.

It is not Friday so mentioning the "H" word.
No sane person is comparing him to "H".  So we should just remain silent when we see racism? History has shown us you do just the opposite.

No need to. Separating mothers from their kids is a disaster for anyone who does it. 100% could not show up for their hearing and it would not change that fact.

what is trump if not a real racist Hitler?

"I don't think everybody understands what's happening down here. You know, a lot of these kids that are coming here, and put through terrible, terrible situations by their parents; they are brought over in extremely dangerous conditions, in extremely dangerous terrain, and all this can be avoided if they just go through the port of entry. There would be no crime committed by them and they wouldn't get separated. Why they don't do this is beyond me. As we all know, when you get arrested, you don't get to stay with your family."

"When you see a 12-year-old girl with a Plan B pill, or their parents put her on birth control because they know getting violated is part of the journey, that’s just a terrible way to live. When you see a 4-year-old girl traveling completely alone with just her parents' phone number written across her shirt. I mean, come on now, something needs to be done. We had a 9-year-old boy last year have heat stroke in front of us and die with no family around, and that’s because we’re allowing people to take advantage of this system."

Sounds like the most humane thing for some of these kids is to take them away from their abusive parents!

[aygart]

I would be petrified of being welcomed by them in ways I never imagined possible!

[ChaimMoskowitz]

Yup because we all know they are all evil people. Everyone is terrible except you.

[ChaimMoskowitz]

Sounds like he is biased for not answering the first question. He went to the school of @aygart for answering questions.

Try and spin this anyway you want and the fact is still separating children from their mothers is unamerican and a losing situation as Trump learned the hard way. He might be able to shoot an innocent person on 5th ave but he can't separate family's and get away with it.

[aygart]

I can be pretty terrible.

You are flat out wrong about this. Do a search on social media and you will find it flooded with comparisons of Trump to Hitler. Former CIA chief Michael Hayden compared Trump’s zero tolerance policy to Auschwitz.

Racism has been taken out of context by the Left. Political correctness has now added new definitions. Racism means treating people differently because of their race or ethnicity. It does NOT mean that if you disagree with the politics of a Black man you are a racist, and it does not mean that if you don’t want people ILLEGALLY crossing the border you are racist.

The vast, vast VAST majority of illegals are NOT suffering from systematic genocide as Jews were suffering during WWII, they just don’t like living in a third world country and want a better life. There is nothing wrong with that, but they need to GET IN LINE with everyone else. Asylum seekers need to come through a port of entry.

Calling Trump a racist for enforcing the LAW of the land is the epitome of stupid. The media created a dangerous hysteria that led to people actually calling for attacks on ICE agents, because well, if they are Nazi’s, then we must kill them.

That a nice list of what the left is doing wrong. How about a list on just one person from the right, Trump. Lets see if you can be fair.

ETA: Let me throw in a question. When you refer to the FBI agents who served a legal search warrant on Cohen as "stormtroppers" were they talking about the Star Wars film or the Nazi's?

Trump does everything in a knee-jerk reaction thoughtless way. He doesn’t make coherent policy, he just takes a list of “issues”, probably from Fox News headlines and then starts making policies without giving those policies any thought or strategy.

“We’re not getting a fair deal”. OK, let’s just throw in some quick tariffs and then tweet about how Canada is cheating us (!?).

I absolutely hate that he is on Twitter. It cheapens the whole presidency.

There, that’s just a few things I hate about Trump.

Fair enough. How about the question I added.
