I’d like to see an episode of “Reno 9-1-1” mocked up for Hillary’s visit. I can see it now, with Huma, Bill, Hill, SerpentHead, Forehead, Madame Alldumb, etc. the security detail at a hotel would be a riot - literally!

I'll see your amnesty and raise you instant citizenship, free health care and a welfare check paid for by gullible gringos.
