I reject your premise that such comments reflect disdain for religious or ethnic groups or a desire to be exclusionary. The comments do reflect a disdain for ineffective border security and ineffective/inconsistent enforcement of immigration laws.
Now, you might take issue with the words that were used. Fine. He didn't use PC language in making his point. But the points that Trump was making in these statements need not be lost in a criticism of in-artful rhetoric...
...unless of course that's your objective.
