Ahead of his Oval Office address on the southern border crisis, New York Times best-selling author and populist conservative columnist Ann Coulter says President Donald Trump must make the case to the American people that the border wall is the “compassionate solution” to stopping wage-crushing illegal immigration.
During an exclusive interview on SiriusXM Patriot’s Breitbart News Tonight, Coulter said Trump must make the humanitarian case for ending illegal immigration straight to the American people, noting that amnesty for illegal aliens must immediately be ruled out.
Coulter said:
I would also go to all of the working class that are in America, construction workers in particular. Their salaries have not just stagnated, they have gone down in the last 20 years. These are the least among us. We are the only ones not speaking out of self-interest. [Emphasis added]
…
Most of the people who are advocating for open borders … they have a vested in interest in having either the cheap labor or the Democratic voters. Their neighborhoods aren’t the ones being overwhelmed. They get the cheap maids, the cheap nannies, and then they strut around like they’re Martin Luther King.
No, you are talking in your self-interest, Chamber of Commerce, and Koch brothers, and Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer. It’s Donald Trump and our side who are actually caring about our fellow Americans — the kids who are getting addicted to black tar heroin.

Honestly... Source completely aside, it is the right direction.
Ahhhh the dilettante continues to prattle on
It is compassionate to Americans!
Build the wall!
Build it now!
Protect Americans!
Coulter is great at yapping that POTUS should say this or that. Sit back and relax girl as the main man does the heavy lifting.
I really wish s/he would shut up.
The border issue has a very simple solution....
The president is the commander-in-chief, in charge of national security.
The borders are subject to our enemies gaining entry to the country, and therefore, they are part of the first line of defense of the country.
Defense: the fence.
The fence is part of our defense. It should not be open for debate or squabbles over funding that wall. The fence or wall or obstacle or whatever, belongs in the defense department budget. It should never be open to debate or politics.
Re: Compassion
My take...
She is mocking a Democrat talking point.
Re: Sit back and relax girl as the main man does the heavy lifting.
Is Trump’s DACA Amnesty for 1.6 million future Democrats part of the heavy lifting?
Hopefully not! That should be 1.5 million deportees.
Agree that Ann has been off the mark lately but in a way, Trump did just that by talking about the human trafficking of women and children and the things they are subjected to because our policies allow for a BIG business when it comes to doing that - also mentioned the drugs and criminals killing our citizens...short speech that covered the whole gamut and the Dim response was canned farts....
