TRUMP PUT HIS MOUTH IN MOTION BEFORE HE PUT HIS BRAIN IN GEAR

The Donald was clearly wrong when he broad brushed Mexican immigrants as criminals

In his rambling announcement that he was running for president, Donald Trump brought up the subject of illegal immigration and said:

“Mexico isn’t sending its best. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

Trump cannot be faulted for bringing up illegal immigration, but he was clearly wrong in the way he went about it. By broad brushing Mexican immigrants as criminals, The Donald let his mouth overload his ass.

Some of my friends have been jumping all over my ass for criticizing Trump’s remarks about Mexican immigrants. They defend Trump by saying he spoke the truth when he broad brushed Mexican illegals as criminals because it is a crime to be in this country illegally … hence they’re criminals.

Personally I like Donald Trump, but he really blew it when he put his mouth in motion before he put his brain in gear. The majority of Mexicans are coming here to find work, not to commit crimes. To defend The Donald by saying he spoke the truth because all illegal aliens have committed the crime of crossing the border illegally is really a stretch.

When Trump said, “They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists,” he clearly did not have in mind that Mexicans were criminals for entering the U.S. illegally. What he meant was that once here, they were committing additional crimes, including rape. And possibly he may have been thinking about Salvadoran MS-13 gang members, who have been sneaking into the U.S. by way of Mexico, but I doubt it.

Trump said, “And some, I assume, are good people.” How magnanimous of The Donald. The majority of illegal aliens are good people. They left Mexico out of desperation, fleeing abject poverty to earn a decent living, something they were unable to do in their homeland. Many of the illegals send much of their earnings to their family members in Mexico.

Should we stop the illegal border crossings? Most certainly! Should we deport the illegal aliens? Yes, but we simply cannot deport 20 million Latinos. However, we can and should deport those illegals who are burgling, robbing, raping and murdering people. But don’t deport those that are mowing our yards, cleaning our homes, fixing our roofs, filling in the pot holes in our streets, picking our crops, etc., etc. Are they taking jobs away from our citizens? No, because Americans refuse to do those kind of jobs because they require hard work and pay very little.

Speaking of illegals committing crimes, there has been a significant increase in hit-and-run traffic accidents. I believe that increase is due to illegals. They don’t want to stick around at the scene because they fear the cops will turn them over to ICE.

You can turn me into the political correctness police for referring to them as illegals instead of undocumented workers.

Illegal immigration? Indians used to complain about the white people. It did no good.
