tough on people coming into this country," Trump said on Fox News
Sunday. "I believe that if I were running things, I doubt those families
would have -- I doubt that those people would have been in the country."

Donald Trump, the *perfect* asshole candidate for the party of assholes.
Really. And just behind Trump, another asshole candidate, Ben Carson.
Crikey.


You (nor I) have no way of knowing if Trump's position on illegal
immigration would have prevented al-Qaeda from sending terrorists to
the USA to attend flight schools in preparation for the 9/11 attacks had
he been POTUS at the time. Warnings of "something is up" were
raised back when Clinton was still in office for cripes sake and he
didn't do anything about it either.

That said, you crack me up (again). In the past you have placed
responsibility for 9/11 squarely on GWB because it happened on his
watch. Trump basically just said the same thing but now he's a "perfect
asshole" according to you.


I blame just about everything that has happened to us in the middle
east and Afghanistan on GHWB

If he had just followed his own advice, declared victory after Kuwait
and brought the troops home, particularly from Saudi Arabia, OBL loses
his biggest recruiting tool and the reason he claimed for 911.
Without 911, there is no Afghanistan war and without the decade long
bombing campaign in Iraq, there is no Iraq war.

The people we were "saving" from Saddam, are the ones we are fighting
in Syria now and they are using our weapons.
