#1 That 'tone of respect and dignity' is what lost the election for Romney.

#2 If people break the law, are they really needing to be treated with verbal respect?

#3 People are responding to Trump because they are fed up with the status quo in Washington, a rogue POTUS, a rogue SCOTUS, a do-nothing Congress unresponsive to the voters, corruption and political correctness run amok.

#4 George Wallace 1968, 'law and order'. Somehow that turned the boat hard in its path in that and the subsequent elections. Suddenly, everyone was for law and order again. Took that to get the ruling class's attention.

Can't wait till he starts saying, if you have no loyalty to me as an American why should I have any for you?

#5 We need to treat legal immigrants with the same respect and dignity as any other citizen, no more and no less. If we disagree with them we have a right to say so. If they don't like it that's tough. I don't like being muzzled. If there is a criminal element among members of their ethnic group who have come here illegally we are fools if we try to ignore it.

I am highly suspicious of those who either cannot or will not acknowledge the difference between legal and illegal, even if they happen to be Republican governors. To me it makes all the difference in the world. It's the difference between a sovereign nation and a failed state.

I don't need the governor of South Carolina telling me or anybody else what can and cannot be said about it.

#6 Dems have shifted to Marxism. So the Pubs decided to take over the vacated role of donks.

Unless I hear an objection, I'm giving Haley TWO Barking Moonbats.

#8 I'll object.

Haley has a point: you can point out that absolutely, positively that the border needs to be controlled (fence, moat, crocodiles) and illegal immigrants need to be shown the door without being so nasty that legal immigrants start fearing a midnight knock on the door.

#9 Point taken, but Kathryn Steinle might be alive today had there been a few more.... "midnight knocks on doors."

#10 If the illegal aliens fear a knock on the door at midnight then they should go back where they belong.

We have a thing in this country called the First Amendment and there are those of us who resent the hell out of being shushed. It's gotten to the point where Trump had to be outrageous just to get anybody's attention, just to get the dialogue started, because otherwise it's gonna get swept under the rug just like it always has in the past. We can't keep quiet anymore and we can't have anybody setting themselves up as the judge of what can and cannot be said about it. It's like people who say we need to be more respectful of Muslims. No. We don't. They need to respect us. If they want to make trouble then we have to confront them or else submit to their tyranny.

Trump did not lie. He did not even exaggerate. He told the truth. But everybody's acting like he's some big, hateful racist. I don't know. Maybe he's just an attention whore. But it's about damn time somebody said what he did.

I don't know how it is where you live but Hispanics, legal or otherwise, have become the majority in California and the barking moonbats now control this state. That is why San Francisco declared itself a "sanctuary city" and it's why that lady got shot. We'll never, ever, have another Republican governor or legislator and all of our Electoral College votes will always go to candidates like Obama and Hildebeest. It's why businesses are fleeing this state. It wasn't always this way. I've watched it change. I waited for Republicans like Bush to do something about it and they failed. So as far as I'm concerned, Trump can say whatever he wants.

Think positively Besoeker. Remember the great Republican hope: Condi Rice?

#12 Trump is certainly making the right enemies:

#13 ...If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.

The man had and has just about everything. The only thing money can't buy is immortality. However, it can be bestowed by an assassin motivated by the hate that drives the Left and it ancillary adjuncts.
