Donald Trump to respond to Kamala Harris on immigration

Donald Trump
The GOP candidate brings the message to the Badger State.

 A day after Vice President Kamala Harris discussed immigration at the U.S.-Mexico border, former President Donald Trump is expected to respond by again linking her to illegal border crossings at an event in a western Wisconsin river town.

Trump heads Saturday to Prairie du Chien, a town of about 5,000 people just across the Mississippi River from Iowa, for a campaign event focused on immigration. He is expected to highlight the local case of a Venezuelan national accused of sexually assaulting a woman and attacking her daughter in an alleged domestic dispute.

Trump is hoping frustration over illegal immigration will translate to votes in Wisconsin and other crucial swing states. The Republican nominee has denounced people who cross the U.S.-Mexico border as “poisoning the blood of the country” and vowed to stage the largest deportation operation in American history if elected.

Wisconsin Republicans in recent days have held up the story of Alejandro Jose Coronel Zarate’s arrest in Prairie du Chien as more evidence that people in the country illegally are committing crimes across the United States, not just in southern border states. Prosecutors charged Coronel Zarate on Sept. 18 with sexual assault, child abuse, strangulation and domestic abuse.

    Trump is the last person to complain about sexual abuse,when he is a serial sexual abuser,and any women that vote for him or
    been a victim of abuse themselves, should think twice about voting for Trump

    Trump has promised to deport 11 million undocumented. Imagine how much tax money this policy would incur? 40% of America’s undocumented own homes financed by US banks! What happens to those homes? Trump’s policy has as much credibility as his “Mexico will build the wall” nonsense. Trump has no plan…… and he’s nixed two Republican immigration plans since 2017.

      Who paid for the 11 million in the first place. If the Joe and Kammy comedy show actually did their jobs we would not need to have this conversation.

        Trump had the third-biggest primary deficit growth, 5.2% of GDP, behind only George W. Bush (11.7%) and Abraham Lincoln (9.4%).

        As of Dec. 31, 2020, [before COVID] the national debt had jumped to $27.75 trillion, up 39% from $19.95 trillion when Trump was sworn in.

            The president and vice president of the United States DO NOT have the ability or the authority to write law. Anyone from any country on planet earth can fly into, walk into or drive into the USA and ask for asylum. If you don’t like the existing laws write to your members of Congress who are the sole governmental body to write legislation.

            ……..but YOU and every other thick headed wingnut MAGA kook already know this.

    Who paid for the 11 million in the first place……..well, it wasn’t you nor the other MAGAt above who never learned how to spell in English.

    According to the IRS, in 2015, “4.4 million ITIN filers paid over $5.5 billion in payroll and Medicare taxes and $23.6 billion in total taxes. More currently, the IRS estimates there is $8 billion in annual payroll tax withholding.” And other than the Child Tax Credit, ITIN filers can’t access Federal benefits.

    And the same charts that show the 11 million figure today also show it was 12.2 million in 2007. Yes, the original 11 million entered the U.S. from Reagan through Bush2. Because the original influx was Mexican, there has been a net decrease since because many Mexicans leave when they have earned some money.

    Given some undocumented have been here since the early 80s, it is likely some have paid more U.S. taxes than the posters here.

    The first significant piece of bipartisan legislation to address comprehensive immigration reform to be drafted in over 30 years was all set to be moved through the US Congress and Senate and signed into law a few months ago…

    Until Trump told his lemmings to torpedo it. Why? Because spewing lies about immigration, and ginning up racial animosity and hate are all he has in his divisive campaign playbook. It’s all he’s ever had.

    His show was canceled in 2020 by 81 million Americans. But he’s not man enough to admit defeat, nor will he ever do the right thing for anyone other than himself.

      Right. And when DJT changes the subject or attempts to deflect, his acolytes imagine it to be pure rhetorical genius. He is first and foremost for redistributing the national wealthy UPWARD among his already wealthy friends and contributors. (It’s not too late to become a friend and contributor: Trumpmeister is hawking watches like a NYC hustler working out of his car trunk on a side street. Sure to be heirlooms.)
