“Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”

Immigrants built America. No one works harder to make a country better than the people who know how much worse it can be.

Watching it all from Belgium, it seems that the contested speech of Trump is purposefully aimed at:

  • making the previous wrong remark yesterday's news;
  • flooding the news/people with controversial remarks so it's impossible to 'keep count';
  • raising the bar of what shocks Trump-supporters and -opponents.

Like his mother? Or his whoring grandfather?

Hey... dont disrespect whores like that.

Or his wife. And ex-wife.

But, no. His base understands that he's talking about the ones with the dirty-colored skin. Not the pure, clean, white skin. Or the obviously superior orange.

Oh! One pet theory I have is that he's not trying for "orange," but rather "gold." He's got a fettish for the color gold, and I think his orange skin is as close as he can get. Or else he is partially color-blind and he thinks his skin is gold-colored.
