Trump AZ Speech today: Let's get some FReeper Feedback. What stood out to you the most?

[Din Maker]

I've been a political junkie since I was 16 years old, but, I have never heard a political speech like Donald Trump's speech today in Phoenix, AZ.

I'd like to hear from some FReepers as to what was the one or two things in the speech that stood out, the most, to you? My two would be:

#1. Five (5) Sanctuary Cities in Florida during Jeb Bush's time as Governor.

#2. Why would America elect a woman who was the worst Sec. of State in the history of our nation, to the Office of President of the United States?

I wish I could remember the word(s) he used to diss Al Sharpton.

More than 200 cities, counties, and states across the United States are considered sanctuaries that protect criminal aliens from deportation by refusing to comply with ICE detainers or otherwise impede open communication and information exchanges between their employees or officers and federal immigration agents. These state and local jurisdictions have policies, laws, executive orders, or regulations to this effect. These sanctuary policies obstruct federal law authorizing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) to administratively deport illegal aliens without seeking criminal warrants or convictions from federal, state, or local courts. Although federal regulations plainly require cooperation, the federal government has never sued nor sanctioned a sanctuary jurisdiction, nor denied federal funds. In contrast, the Obama administration has made it difficult for the states and localities which choose to aid in enforcing immigration laws, in some cases going so far as to sue to have such assistance prohibited. In addition, in a November 2014 policy memorandum signed by the Homeland Security Secretary, the administration reversed longstanding policies by directing ICE agents not to issue detainers except in rare circumstances, and explicitly allowing sanctuaries to ignore ICE efforts to take custody of deportable criminal aliens.

The map shows Travis County as a sanctuary county, not San Antonio. Austin is in Travis County.

Yawn...

[right way right]

I didn’t like hearing “sorry conservatives” on repealing Obamacare.
Trump can SAY anything and that is good in some aspects, but bad in others.
Ask any salesman.
I enjoy his roasting of Bush and skewering of the media and boldly pointing out the worst secretary of State EVER.

[laplata]

Sorry, I wasn’t being critical.

I saw a map a few days ago that had many more points on it, including the town where I live, which isn’t on that map.

I’ll look for it and let you know if/when I find it.

[Balding_Eagle]

I’m enjoying the bitterness South40s lying fingers are typing out.

I bet Macy’s is no happy.

[wintertime]

That should be:

I bet Macy’s is **not** happy!

I probably identify more as a Democrat." ~Donald Trump

It has gotten to where political monikers have become meaningless...Bush calls himself a conservative...

I became an Independent years ago...I'm not swayed by Party names...

[Din Maker]

Entertaining, welcome sound bites. Can’t say he can be trusted.

So? 99% of the people who run for office canNOT be trusted.

[wintertime]

He is certainly pushing issues that the other candidates of the “Uniparty” would rather avoid. The Uniparty candidates will not be able to avoid them.

[varina davis]

Art of the deal is excellent.... first read it when I was a teen and several times since. Read it and if you like Trump at all now, you will like him more after reading it.

[philetus]

You’ve been here 5 months longer than me.

[Din Maker]

I hope he’s got researchers combing records day and night.
______________________________________________________________

Count on it.

[philetus]

I think if he can be trusted, they will all be trying to kill him.

[spokeshave]

Great zingers...and no nteleprompter

[Din Maker]

Overlook South40. He is in the 1% of FReepers who loathe Trump. I think he gets on FR when he’s drinking.

-——If you scroll down to Texas, for example, you will see the Sanctuary cities that are not on the map.

[KGeorge]

Thanks. All I know is that the local tv websites made a big deal about it. I think it’s been several years ago.

[Din Maker]

Jenny, ignore South40. Many of us on FR have chosen to just not give him the time of day. When all of us start ignoring him, maybe he will crawl off and curl up in the fetal position. He’s either drinking when he comes on FR or he is DU plant.

[DefeatCorruption]

No teleprompter...no speech writers.
Sorry that you think the truth is disjointed.
Trump did a great job because it was real...no agenda except to tell it like it is...and offering some hope to so many.
