By slowing immigration, Trump was the reason why immigrants saw their first raises in decades. How is that "racist and disgusting?" He simply prioritized the people that are here over the people that want to be here.

I will not reply, as a general rule, to posts that spin reality in a crazy way like this. Argue honestly or don't bother.
You bloody know that isn't the intended effect of Trump's demagoguery against immigrants, and you know that the content of the demagoguery ran to blatant racist shit, not principled policy to slow immigration.
For the benefit of anyone unclear on this (not you, you know), does the phrase "they're sending rapists" ring any bells?

A lot of people on the internet seem to be going for the latter.

It's just an MS-13 thang.
A writer named Fred Reed once spoke on illegal immigrants. He is an american that ex-patriated to mexico and married a Mexican woman. 20 years ago he said that most Mexicans have no more desire to leave their country and illegally go to the US than people in the US want to illegally sneak into Mexico. The ones that do it are the dregs of their culture. i.e. the equivalent of our country's welfare moms, gang members, fatherless boys, etc.
So yeah. Generally speaking, that is who is coming over illegally.

The money quote from the post you are responding to:
"He simply prioritized the people that are here over the people that want to be here."
That is why we elected him. He's not president of the world. He's president of the US. His first priority is those people and businesses that exist inside the US and its territories.
Period.
This is not a difficult concept. At least, it shouldn't be.

Pretty much blows up your little conspiracy theory, eh, Bucko? You must feel like a right fool about now...

Maybe they could put up a wall to keep them hombres out of Tennessee, Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky?

Why am I not surprised you were a low down lying scum of a salesman? No reputable outfit uses such tactics to sell their wares.
