Illegal Immigrants at Trump's Congressional Address
« on: February 27, 2017, 06:50:32 PM »
Several Dem congresscritters are bringing "undocumented immigrants" to Trump's congressional address. It's interesting that they seem to have chosen all DACA aliens, possibly for safety since it looks like Trump has a soft spot there. It would have been more interesting if they brought people who snuck over the border as adults.

I'm guessing that they hope ICE detains their guests for the publicity. I actually have no idea what the best thing for the administration to do would be - letting them slide and ignoring the dem taunt, or having ICE detain the guests.

Be a great Pay-Per-View event if ICE were to frog march them out and onto a waiting plane at Dulles...

Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

The best thing would be for Trump to just mildly point out that those Dem's didn't care enough to bring any of the citizens they're supposed to represent. Or say something like, "I'm glad that no Americans in So-and-so's district needed his help, so he can start focusing on other people." 

Then again, DJT don't mildly anything.

 I think the frogmarch would play best for publicity.  The Left is already in full out retard screech, it would give them a stroke and amuse those of us that voted for him.  

It's not like they can hate him any harder and I'm enjoying this circus.  [popcorn]

Play that card,  and when called on it whip out the Elián González memes.

There is no fixing stupid. But, you can line it up in front of a wall and offer it a last smoke.

There is no such thing as a "transgender" person.  Only mental illness that should be discouraged.

What if Trump had US Marshals arrest the Dem congresscritters for harboring illegals?

They (the Republican controlled congress) would make up some bullshit reason to impeach him, and it would probably stick.  IMHO, the Republican elites hate Trump even more than the Democrats do.

Is that like shooting someone politely?

I only caught about half the Address, so didn't see any of the illegals. I did see the part where Trump introduced his guests, who were surviving family members of people killed by illegals. Didn't go over well with the Dem side of the room. :)

Slight thread veer, but I was very impressed with Trump's address. This was not Twitter Trump. This was President Trump. To me, it made the dems who refused to stand for even no-brainer "good for everyone" stuff  that he said look like petulant children.

More like killing them mostly dead.

Trump finally proposed what I've been telling my [useless] congresscritters for years:

Putting some policy meat on the bones, he proposed introducing an Australian-style merit-based system to reduce the flow of unskilled workers

Very telling about the Democrat response to Trump's announcement about the VOICE office.

It's pretty clear that there's now a group of victims, REAL victims, that the left won't embrace.

Probably because they know that this victims group can't be exploited for either consistent voting support or photo opportunities.

I was never happy with the left in this country, but I didn't start actively hating, truly HATING, the left until the last 18 months or so.

Perhaps it is a matter of degree.  IMO, they aren't doing anything different, they are just being less subtle.

As long as their true colors come out for all to see, I wouldn't give a crap if Weepy Chucky Schumer broke out a Balalaika and they danced a Tanok in solidarity with Ukraine.
