    He said some illegal immigrants were rapists, criminals not all Mexicans. You liberals either deliberately skew his words to fit your narrative or have really poor comprehension. And, obviously, just because one party has done you wrong doesn't necessarily mean you stop speaking to them. Negotiation is part of the game of diplomacy. And let me stress 'obviously' here because you people seem utterly clueless.

    Speaking of reading comprehension, "Mexico is sending us their worst rapists and criminals"....

    SAT/ACT courses available online as well.

    I love it when you guys try to repackage what he said. No need to do that, just quote him directly.

    --------------------------------------------

    “When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

    –Real estate mogul Donald Trump, presidential announcement speech, June 16, 2015


    “What can be simpler or more accurately stated? The Mexican Government is forcing their most unwanted people into the United States. They are, in many cases, criminals, drug dealers, rapists, etc.”

    -Trump, statement about his June 16 comments, July 6, 2015

    Oh you were just being sarcastic, how Trumpian of you. It's OK, you can't help being a mental midget.

    No, you said some were rapists. He said he assumed some were good people and most were unwanted, many are drug dealers, rapists, and drug dealers. Do you know the difference between some and many?

    It's an unspecified amount. But it's completely opposite of the notion that Trump suggested all Mexicans are rapists etc.

    No, actually it isn't. Building a wall isn't a measure before the United States. All it is is a Trump proposal. So the Logan Act doesn't apply to this one.

    This task force thing (that specializes in identifying and removing illegals) Trump is talking about right now sounds a lot like the Gestapos (sp??) that a funny mustache guy enforced 80 years ago. Scary.

    He didn't suggest it, he said it. Trump isn't a toddler, he doesn't need people to tell us what he just said. We understand English.

    When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

    Thanks for posting that. It's exactly what I was looking for. Some of these guys live on a different planet or something.
