Donald Trump embraces family of those murdered by illegal immigrants... all of you who will have family die at the hands of the Muslim Terrorists that Obama and Rubio want to let into our country please take notes.

Donald Trump showed Texas voters that he supports Americans, not “undocumented immigrants” or ‘Dreamers,’ by sharing his Nov. 14 campaign-platform with the stricken parents and siblings of Americans who were killed by illegal immigrants.
The emotional display — 9.30 into the video — effectively underlined the deep contrast between  Trump’s visceral pro-American attitudes, and the attitudes of his two main establishment rivals, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Rhino-FL) and Gov. Jeb Bush. The two have repeatedly spoken in favor of diversity, young ‘dreamer’ illegals, and greater immigration.

The audience responded to Trump’s pro-American attitudes by chanting his name.
On the stage, Felicia Ruiz’s mother described how she was murdered in 1999 by an illegal who subsequently fled home to Venezuela. “She was stabbed over 39 times… we just want justice for our daughter,” said her mother, Kendra. “We need to elect someone like Mr Trump so he can stop all this, please,“ she said, before hugging Trump.
“If I win, we will get [the murderer] out, fast,” Trump responded.
The families are part of the Remembrance Project, which is a “national campaign to remember victims killed by illegal aliens.”
By highlighting some of the many Americans who have been killed by illegals, Trump is giving his supporters — plus many swing-voters — a powerful way to publicly express emotional solidarity with other Americans, and a shield against the stigma of being called “racist” by progressive advocates for illegal immigration.

Each year, many Americans are killed by illegals, who face little risk of repatriation before killing Americans. That’s because President Barack Obama has sharply reduced repatriations, and because Obama, President George W. Bush and Congress have minimized agency efforts to block companies from hiring illegals.
Between 2008 and 2014, roughly 7,085 Americans —including legal immigrants — were murdered by illegal immigrants in a just a few states.
Laura Wilkerson spoke for her son, 18-year-old Joshua, who was beaten to death in 2010 by an illegal immigrant. “Thank you, Mr Trump, for finally bringing it out… it happens every single day, it happens every day,” said Wilkerson.
Rhonda West spoke for her 10-year-old son, Kendrick, who was killed in 2010 by a drunken illegal-immigrant driver. “I want to thank you Mr Trump for everything you are doing, you’re our only hope, we love you, we love you,” West said.
Dan Govatch described how his 25-year-old son was shot in the head while stopped at a traffic light. The killer had been deported four times before and had a long criminal record. “Listen, this is the result of ‘politically correct’ politics,” said the father. People in power “have no problem sacrificing your loved one, your child, for the advancement of their own little agenda… I want to thank Mr Trump for standing up and saying the things he said that no-one else is saying,” said Govatch.
“You don’t see that, you don’t read about it in the papers,” Trump responded. “It is just unbelievable, and I see it all the time, wherever I go, because I’m the only one that talks about it,” he said.
“No matter where I go, I meet people who have lost a son, a daughter, a brother, a sister,” he said. “We can’t have this any more.”
In his subsequent speech, Trump spoke mostly about foreign policy, touted his prior defense-related statements and promised a tough, pro-American foreign policy. For example, he said that U.S. should have kept control of oil-fields in Iraq and spent some of the revenue on the families of American veterans.

Call it opportunistic, but this is the issue (remember he started his campaign about the time of the Kate Steinle murder) that has made him.

Deborah may not like him because he's no gentleman, but that's what a lot of people love about him

YMMV

There are signs that people are waking up about harboring dangerous illegals. San Francisco's sheriff recently lost reelection due in part to his support of the "Sanctuary City" issue. If you've lost SFO, you've lost California liberals. Well except for the hard core La Raza types in LA.

Trump should focus on making America great again and promising to reverse some of Obama's executive odors.

I refuse to play the sophisticate game. Trump is unabashedly for America and that's good enough for me.

Troop, Donald Trump a few weeks ago said he wanted to let Syrians in.

Cruz was against it from the get.

Just sayin...

I am glad Trump is against Syrians coming in now, but he said what he said not that long ago.

I'm not against immigrants so much as I'm against those who claim that anyone who can find a way into our country has a constitutional right to remain here forever. I would like the more liberal candidates to answer if there is any immigrant currently in this country who does not have a right to be here and should be forwith deported........How many of these Middle East refugees does Mexico and Central America plan to take?

Evi, Don't ruin Troopers hard on w/ those pesky facts.

"Deborah may not like him because he's no gentleman,"

Neither is Hillary or Bill. Now, Bush I was a gentlemen and a loser.

Maybe we need less good manners and more good policy.

I'd prefer Cruz but he doesn't seem to be popular. Trump seems to be the best of the current lot.

I'm skeptical of how much Trump will actually do in office, but if he does 10% of what he says, he'll still be 10x better than anyone else.

The choice is between someone who says you're his friend and may not be, and a bunch of people who've told you to go to hell.

Trump has been on every side of every issue (as we know Evi) but his supporters don't want to hear it.

He used to adore Hillary, democrats and amnesty. Said so.

The ability to change your mind when presented with new facts and the ability to re-asses your old positions to deal with a new reality, is the hallmark of a rational thinking being.

If you never change your mind and cling to positions that you once held, such as those you formed in your early years....then you are essentially brain dead.

I don't have a problem with people an politicians who have changed or evolved over time, as long as they have some rational reasons for their change.

Now, changing your positions for the mere advantage of getting votes, bamboozling the public ....that makes you Hillary Clinton.
