Re: Bill Clinton campaigning for Trump!
Its the other way around. Trump is parroting what Ex.Pres. W. Clinton said, and also what Ex. Pres. George W. Bush said. Every President and potential President has said exactly the same thing, the problem is two fold, there are ongoing legal challenges to existing laws. The party OUT of power do anything they can to stall, oppose, or propose new legislation which in turn is condemned by what ever party is IN power. Simply put, nothing gets done.
During Pres. Obama's term of office more illegal emigrants have returned than have entered the US. The economic situation (less of a need for unskilled workers) is partly the cause but Obama's Secretary of US Immigration and Naturalization Service has been enforcing the laws more strictly in spite of the Republicans killing or using stall tactics for every proposal put forward by the Democrats.
TWO WEEKS after Pres. Obama's first inauguration The Republican speaker of the House, a Congressman Cantor (later kicked out by the voters of his State) said that no Republican was to vote for any bill that Pres. Obama was to propose. And they didn't, and in my opinion neither will the Democrats if Trump wins. So four or eight years from now the exact words that both the Clinton's, Bush, and now Trump are mouthing, will be repeated but in a softer tone than Trump, primarily because Hispanics have moved and will move into an even greater voting block.
Hilary Clinton is saying the same things regarding deporting criminals and stricter border controls (sans the wall), but is proposing amnesty for the children of illegal emigrants born in the US and by law are Americans, about eight million people including parents.
Amnesty was granted in 1986 to roughly three million illegals. Since then the number has increased to roughly Ten million. Not all are Hispanics, many are people who entered the US legally and have overstayed their visas.
The words said by Trump are music to a lot of voters ears. However, he says nothing about the costs or methods to move EIGHT MILLION people to Mexico, Guatemala, Panama, South America, Haiti, Jamaica, Turkey, Nigeria, in fact the whole world. To arrest them, confirm their illegality, house them, and transport them to their home country. How will his government physically do this? There are laws, you cannot arrest someone because he or she looks a particular ethnic type. How much will it cost? And what if the home country refuses to take them back?
The same song and dance in four or eight years time. It's the theater of the absurd.
Anyway, thanks for the post Marion, it keeps my grey matter working.

When Monica offered to provide proof when she stated she could describe his private parts, often wondered if he had a tattoo there or something. She must have had a close up view of it. JWS

Well there I was this morning in the shopping center deciding that it was time for a leak. Into the gents and there I was leting it all out when I noticed a poster just about at eye level. It said in no uncertain manner,
'When you get an erection is it bent? Just the sort of message you want right at that moment. It went on to say that if so you may be suffereing from a condition with some obscure name and a number to contact.
So maybe Monica does know something, bent or otherwise!

Re: Bill Clinton campaigning for Trump!
Hi Roger.
Good post. It is a matter of logistics and proof, something they have found out here and in Britain; and Europe.
If a person throws away their passport there is no way they can deport him, to where? except for the Mexican's, who would have him\her M$%#s if they cannot prove they came from that particular country, Britain I think tried by sending them back to the last country they lived in, that only works if that particular country will accept him|her. I think that if Trump gets elected and in my opinion now that Hillary is showing signs of sickness and age it's a possibility, he will do something politicians of all persuasions do; he will find it easier to come up with a reason why he can't do many of the things he said he would, after all he will have four years in the job and at 74 by then he may have done his dash.
Cheers Des

Re: Bill Clinton campaigning for Trump!
Early results show that our Donald may well win and spoli the party for Hillary!
But what does this mean for the world, as much of what Trump has said so far has all been rhetoric with very little as positive policy.
Stock markets around the world have tanked, oil down by $ 3 a barrel, good for some maybe?
But without control of the senate or congress there is little either Trump or Clinton will be able to do. Business will control what occurs as that is where the money is.
Long term Trump may be good for the world, time will tell. No doubt Rodders will be in a better situation to explain what I have said.
But there is a lesson to be learned from all of this, the US people are obviously fed up with the status quo where career politicians rule the nation. Much the same with Brexit and the French and German nations look set for a similar change. Globalisation is good in theory but it brings with it many problems particularly when it comes to employment.
But once the dust settles maybe the world will begin too improve??
