Then you misunderstood how stupid it was to point that out/pointless/that it did nothing to further your argument or the discussion. You claim Trump is better then the alternative and were asked to justify that claim. You have failed to do so in all but the most horribly vague talking points. My relative voting predilections are irrelevant to your inability to justify/elaborate with anything more substantive then "not Hillary" or "pro second!".

I do not think that is the correct term. Letting them or creating conditions to encourage them to leave would be more accurate. So Trump is wrong to use that term.

Using the term Racist! has a stronger impact then using the word prejudiced.
That can't be proven or dis proven as it is not tracked properly. Here is what you guys can't understand. Saying a group of people, doing a certain thing is likely criminals is way different than saying all people are inherently doing something because of their race. If you can't figure that out then there is no reason to continue this conversation because it makes too much sense to disagree with.
Religions and nationality apply to the UN definition of racism

any distinction, exclusion, restriction or preference based on race, colour, descent, or national or ethnic origin
2 illegals are not that much of a problem in the USA and their numbels are decreasing.
I made a post a long time ago about let me look for it(found it)
I think the majority of the literature in economics is showing immigrants, including those with the lowest skills/are illegal, tend to increase wages. This is because they shift outwards demand more by providing labor/services natives lack, hence why immigrants tend to have skill sets at the top or bottom.
It is also true that immigrants have a negative effect, because by increasing the supply of labor, the may decrease labor prices overall, thus resulting for lower pay for natives. This is especially alarming, as most immigrants (including those who are illegal) tend to have low skills, and thus drag downwards the pay of similarly unskilled natives, who are arguably those most in need of greater pay.
I think though that the most recent papers tend to show that the benefits outweights the negatives.

And most economists tend to agree that low skilled immigration does have a positive effect in the economy.

Some recent papers even argue that with open borders that global poeverty would be obliterated

As for the crime, illegal immigrants tend to commit 1/5 of crimes than natives:

And the immigration process is screwed I'd you want to enter into the USA.

Now even if the wages were to drop Borjas, the most pessimistic economist here doesn't even find this effect to be greater than about 5%.

Those can be overcomed with a net safety program or through a small tax to the immigrants.
Uff that took me a while.
EDIT updating links
Conclusion: Low skilled immigrants do benefit the US and you are wrong

I am not getting anything mixed up. I simply posted the comments of two republicans who think Trump's comments were racist in response you your question. I guess they are SJW? Anyway you have now claimed the Judge wasn't doing his job at all. Be specific and identify how he has not done his job. Point out the specific ruling he has made in this case that are incorrect.
What are we gonna do now? Taking off his turban, they said, is this man a Jew?
'Cause they're working for the clampdown
They put up a poster saying we earn more than you!
When we're working for the clampdown
We will teach our twisted speech To the young believers
We will train our blue-eyed men To be young believers
Ok, this thread is approaching 70 pages long. Is there anyone posting in this thread that has had their minds changed in who they are voting for? Right. The main thing you should all remember is this: You are all Americans and in the end...on the same team. As a Canadian may I just add these comments if you do not mind?
Your enemies do not care if they kill Republicans or Democrats, you are all one and the same.
Both Candidates are not that great but there is a clear choice.
Trump is correct in saying Muslims are not a race (because indeed they are not) but Trump does have race issues on other matters. Islam has many issues of intolerance riddled through out the world. The civilized world needs to come together and not embrace Islam but rather put forth and stand by their own morals and values. Islam then needs to join that.
Clinton is not a crook no matter how much Trump keeps saying.
Both camps will jiggle the truth on each other.
Americans already have their minds made up, even the Independents who say they havent decided yet (they are bullshitting)
Trump does not have the financial backing and Clinton does. Obama and Romney spent a billion each last election. Trump is not going to spend his own money.
The important prize will be the Supreme Court nominations from the winner.

Daish has to look under his bed and look in his closet every night for the mobs of SJW that are more powerful than the republican presidential candidate. He's got this fear of them, and if he's not careful, they're going to drag him outside his house and yell at him. A fate worse than death apparently.
No, it's not about those entering the country illegally, but specifically Mexicans. To the point he claimed they are sent here. His commentary does not tackle all illegal immigration, like focusing on employment or the reason they come here. It's not because they are sent here, but because they see America as better oportunity than US.
Oh and U.S. did do it to the Irish and with hindsight being 20/20, it's never seen as a good thing.
Bullshit... Hilary gets shit for being against gay marriage, even after she backed off the statement. Unlike Trump with Ted Cruz showing a video of Trump being pro-choice, neither Hilary or her supporters threatened law suits or proposed liable laws changes as a result, like Trump did and his supporters agree with.Choose to be naive on the subject, nothing will change your mind. If Hillary said it I but this wouldn't even be an issue for you. You don't understand what racism is , I suggest you stop using that word until you understand it.

Now the argument is semantics? You honestly don't understand what people mean when they say racist, because Mexicans are not a race? You do realize that either racist or prejudiced against, doesn't actually change the inflammatory nature of what Trump said, just what it's called?

True.
True.
In what way is he a racist toward a race of people? Comments about some women? There are been many women who have spoken out how well he has treated them. Profiling as done for detective reasons for resolving a crime? Common sense to use what ever tools you can which are legal and can help solve the crime.
False. She is a crook.
True.
False. About 22 % of American voters have not made up their minds.
True and False. He has spent some of his own money. Granted with measures taken to get some back which is only common sense business practices.
True.
Thanks for your input.
No he is attacking illegals from Mexico because cities along the boarders crime rate has exploded. People who here illegally by other means such as expired visas are not making those towns crime rate shoot up
You totally missed the point I see. Here is the point further explained.Bullshit... Hilary gets shit for being against gay marriage, even after she backed off the statement. Unlike Trump with Ted Cruz showing a video of Trump being pro-choice, neither Hilary or her supporters threatened law suits or proposed liable laws changes as a result, like Trump did and his supporters agree with.
If Hillary did something that pissed you off you wouldn't say shit but if Trump did the exact same thing you would have pitchforks and files because you Republicans and Democrats are biased hypocrites. You don't care about the truth, you only care about what makes your side look good. Zealots

Yes that is what they say. I do not believe that. Not for a minute.False. About 22 % of American voters have not made up their minds.
