But that is pretty dumb move to make. Latino population is ever expanding in the US, it will be dumb to alienate them, for upcoming election. Good for the democrats.

Not so dumb if you start rigging voting laws so only racist whites can vote.

Also, what makes you think he'll stop with undocumented immigrants - or immigrants at all?
 
Alternatively, he came up with it from Stormfront compiling a list exactly like that.

Though his ex-wife has said he used to keep a book of Hitler speeches by the bed, so it's believable he learned it first from his Hitler studies.

I was curious so found the original text:

and a key takeaway from the speeches?

Maybe and thats because newer Hispanic generations forget or ignore their roots and become one of the "good ones", specially light skinned hispanics.

I respect people can have different political positions but when one group is terrorizing people like you, other minorities. Like they cant take a second to reflect and say "wow if i wasnt born here, id be a target" or "they could be targeting my family".

Typical "fuck you, got mine." I really wished Hispanic community stuck closer like the Black community. Like I said, Hispanics come from all areas of the world but one thing in common if they are in the US one way or another, their relatives/parents etc immigrated here at one point.

Last bit, I think the parents have a little blame. To assimilate their kids, they dont really remind them what they went through so their kids dont know the reality and just think because they got light skin > screw these brown people.

Edit: My point is...Hispanic majority could backfire in that we could get more people like Rubio/Cruz fighting against their own people.
 
Seeing as how a large portion of the southwest was originally Mexican in origin and all the way up until less than 100 years ago, I don't see how it's possible to get rid of that influence nor the people who have real roots in that portion of the country.

Manifest Destiny only worked for the land. The people and culture still exist regardless of arbitrary borders.

Less than 100 years? The gadsen purchase was the most recent west/southwest acquisition, and that was in 1853. The Mexican cession and Texas annexation were 5 and 7 years earlier.

You can claim the property but if the people still living there, it doesn't really mean shit in the end.

Eta- Border fences and all that nonsense about not letting people through is a pretty new phenomenon as far as farmers in the west goes.
 
I found out one of my friends, a latino, female, teachers assistant living in Los Angeles, California is a Trump supporter. I had to hold back a whole "are YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!?!" so bad. I realized questioning people's intelligence based upon political views was very unproductive, so I told her why I disagreed with Trump based upon things he's said and done...and over and over she kept saying "oh I didn't know he did that". ignorant. just plain ignorance. I get mortified people like her exist and hold the same political influence as me.

I had another Hispanic female friend laugh at the women's March on Saturday saying "What rights are they taking away that they have to complain about, lol!" I'm in awe that people like this exist.

edit: I'm also sure this is all part of Trump's war against California...probably his strongest opponent for the next 4 years. just look at the opposition Governer Brown is already giving him.

You have to educate the Hispanic voters that voted for Trump.

I'm Hispanic on both sides and I have a significant chunk of my family that voted for Trump not because of the bigotry part but because they haven't heard of all the negative stuff about him.

They don't watch enough of the news. They tune in every once in a while and it's usually Fox because it's biggest and most well known network.

You can get more Hispanics to vote Democrat just by telling them what's wrong with Republicans/ Trump.
 
I thought his first move to make this country a facist state would be to directly curtail the news media but nope it's those evil dirty immigrants that riles him up even more.

Trump needs to be stopped and the people who got him into the position they wanted need to be prevented from making this mistake for all of us again.

Trump is clearly smart enough to not do these things piece meal

He is doing everything atrocious at once, and it is leaving the rest of us unable to focus our rage in any particular direction. He is attacking the media, immigrants, putting through tons of executive orders at once. And may be all don't make it through the senate, but you do enough at once and maybe some do make it through.

All the while he is playing the whole "inauguration numbers" debate up to 11, and has the media distracted by arbitrary shit like he is lying about his crowd sizes.

I think he is playing this politician game very well, and is pulling some text book moves for causing confusion amongst his enemy by blitzkrieging through new policy and shooting off little red herrings at the same time.
 
It genuinely fascinates me how Orwellian his administration seems as days go by. Publishing this weekly as a way of exemplifying and caricaturing immigrants as the "enemy" while trying to deflect attention from himself and his cock ups.

I really hope trump supporters gets wise and see through this. Otherwise it's just another depressing fact about society; we're just so easily manipulated and people would judge information on emotion rather than logic and rationality.

These are truly interesting times we live in.

Huh? You said it was Mexican until 100 years ago. Factually wrong by a lot.
