Sen. Flake has proven himself to be an opportunistic political whore.

The Bush League Republicans want the final amnesty to cement in place the demographic changes they have made to the country against the will of the citizens.

MANY Americans have asked themselves that same question.

“Why are we having all these people from shithole countries come here?”

It’s wonderful to have the most expensive news-gathering organizations in the world right here in the USA. They always let us know what’s really important.

It comes down to who you believe...Trump or Dick Turbin...who got that name by trashing our troops overseas. Funny there was no “outrage” from the media when he did that!

Since these places aren’t shitholes, that means all their “refugees” can go back!

So what?

Sick of the snowflake ultra PC country we’ve turned in to.

Time to put the patriots firmly in the driver’s seat.

My preferred designations are “hellholes” and “3rd world dumps”, but that’s just my druthers.

So now Trump knows he can not negotiate in confidence with these illegal immigration supporting whoremasters.

That they even proposed a pathetic deal like they did is very telling.

Even now, the only person who was in the meeting who has claimed Trump used the S word is Durbin. Only one.

That headline is very misleading. Flakey Flake was TOLD by Durbin what was said.

Jake Tapper went and then talked to Flake who never misses an opportunity to trash Trump but apparently who wasn't in the meeting:

Sen. @JeffFlake to me just now:

"The words used by the president -- as related to me directly following the meeting by those in attendance -- were not 'tough,' they were abhorrent and repulsive. There is no good explanation."

Flake tells me before the @washingtonpost broke the story, he was told of the comments by @SenatorDurbin and a GOP Senator who attended the Oval Office meeting . 2/

Flake said he was told what CNN reported: that the president referred to African countries as "shithole countries," and of Haitians asked “Why do we need more Haitians? Take them out” —- meaning take them out of the deal.

He probably said the word but not the way the left are portraying it.

The United States cannot afford to pay for people from failed countries to live in the United States.

The basis for selecting immigrants needs to be the benefits that they can bring, period.

Anyone who wants to invoke the ideal of charity being a virtue needs to understand that charity begins at home, and start helping the people who already legally live in their country.

Trump is right and nothing melts a snow flake faster then the heat of truth.
