Trump: ‘The Silent Majority is Back and We’re Going to Take the Country Back’

PHOENIX — GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump, whose caustic comments about Mexican immigrants have inflamed the immigration debate, told thousands of cheering supporters here Saturday that “we have to take back the heart of our country.”

“These are people that shouldn’t be in our country,” he said in a rambling, angry speech. “They flow in like water.” A man shouted from the crowd, “Build a wall!”

Basking in polls that show he is near the front of the crowded Republican field, Trump took obvious glee in mocking former Florida governor Jeb Bush, the establishment favorite who is setting fundraising records.

“How can I be tied with this guy?” Trump asked the crowd. “He’s terrible. He’s weak on immigration.”

    Reality is I'm rooting for Trump to get the R nomination.

    Trump is going to make Ross Perot's run look like a high school student council election.

    Trump is a plant. This is a republican strategy. Normally they have to out retard each other to see who is furthest to the right. Now they get Trump saying ridiculous shit and they get to appear kinder, wiser and more in the middle.

    Lipo.

    It's not ridiculous when you live near a border. Was it p.c.? No. Was it an embellishment? Yeah, probably, but every fucking politician who calls for a secure border is usually labeled racist by la raza types. I'm fucking sick of it.

    It's not like Mexico is sending a lot of professionals here who hop the border. There are still plenty of people here who need work. If it's stuff "Americans won't do," well golly gee willickers, maybe pay $11 an hour instead of 8, or for more skilled trade jobs, $20 instead of $14.

    Someone said it in another thread. People who migrate here, especially from places within a day's drive from SD, LA, Inland Empire, Tucson, Phoenix, hell paso, SA and Houston often have one foot here and one foot in MX. It's not like 100 years ago when Mario and Tony had to pretty much cut ties with the village, learn English and assimilate.

    Trump is a clown, but his thoughts on border control have some truth. At the same time, it is kind of racist because many of those Mexicans are here to work hard and make money. What is peanuts to most Americans is a decent wage to them, and an opportunity they don't get in Mexico.

    I'm sure all 16 of Trumps great great WASPy granddads bitched about the exact same things except with the Irish, Italians, and Polish 150 years ago. LRR: incumbents hate immigration.

    I can't stand the argument that our ancestors were all immigrants so why should we be against these current immigrants. The world is a bit different today. I'm pretty sure that 150 years ago, immigrants were not entitled to free healthcare, free government provided entitlements, and a society that tolerates/supports speaking anything other than English. And the real kicker....the vast majority of immigrants 150 years ago came here legally.
    Sure.

    I don't care about immigration. If anything it probably benefits me and the vast majority of this college educated board. I do care that smaller regional issues like homos marrying each other and border patrol take precedence in the federal government over real issues like entitlement reform and education.

    I agree with you to some extent. Homos marrying each other, the Confederate Flag (my own add on)......WGAF. And entitlements and education are two of the most important domestic issues we face. But immigration, specifically illegal immigration, has a significant impact on both entitlements and education. Certainly, immigration is not the sole reason entitlements and education are fucked up in this country, but it is one of the reasons, and a significant one at that.

    At minimum, get the popcorn ready when the Donald speaks at the first Republican debate.

    That is the problem. Get these people legalized and on the path to citizenship so they pay taxes, etc, rather than sucking out resources.

    The demographics of the West and even places like Japan and China are bad. Immigration policies will ultimately be liberalized almost everywhere as countries desperately try to keep their economies growing.

    Partly yes, but it's pretty obvious that America needs open borders for skilled workers and investors.

    Trump is the best thing to happen to this election, period. Hillary's scandals did not raise awareness, Trump did.

    Expect record audience for a primary debate on Fox News. In addition, the RINO's in the group will now actually have to discuss issues rather than avoid the real questions. Jeb Bush will wilt under the pressure.
    The Washington Establishment’s increasing angst and opposition to billionaire real estate mogul Donald Trump’s presidential candidacy is predicated on the notion that his highly-quotable catchphrases—“Take the oil!” or “Build a wall!”—lack substantive policy prescriptions to back them up. In short, the RINO caucus’ knock on Trump is that his solutions are unserious, unmeasured, quixotic.

    Yet if the chattering class fears Trump’s recent surge in the polls, they will go into panic-filled paroxysms when they read Trump’s smart and serious bestseller, Time to Get Tough: Making America #1 Again.

    Backed up with nearly 250 endnotes, citing everything from Government Accountability Institute (GAO) reports to Sherman Antitrust Act amendments to the Theory of Moral Sentiments, Trump’s book clearly lays out serious policy solutions to vexing U.S. problems. Welfare reform, cyberwarfare, energy, illegal immigration and crime, taxes, healthcare, national defense—you name it, Trump offers his plans, often including specific bills and amendments. Best of all, Trump does it all in his refreshingly blunt and authentic voice—the very voice now resonating with a citizenry fed up with the Political Class and its conceits.

    Why pay more when you can pay less?
