Trump likens immigrants to snakes...

Pretty much everyone in the media "parsed" it that way. You can discredit the whole bunch w/ the usual 'fake news,' but I even saw it discussed that way on a Fox panel. Have you paid any attention to the news lately, or are you down to info wars & that's it?

Because he said IMMIGRATION, and did not qualify it in any way. You say that we should go by his stated positions, but if you haven't seen the xenophobia and more blanket statements about immigrants (well, except maybe those from Norway), you're simply not paying attention. Trump knows EXACTLY what he's doing when he makes this kind of speech. It's all for the base, and he knows who they are.
Jeez, still banging on ffs

We all know the conservative opposition to "illegal immigration" is just an opening bid for their ultimate goal of slowing down, eliminating, and eventually reversing the rate of change in the ethnicity of the US. They couldn't give two shits about "illegal immigration", they would be legalized tomorrow if they were white.
 
did he say "legal immigration?" he left it as "immigration"..
so the serious thing to do is to look at his positions/prior statements on immigration.

he's excoriated criminal illegal aliens and the damage they do..why do you need to widen it out past there
when he's not gone after legal immigrants as a problem. There is a need to reform immigration ( merit based)
but he's never called legal immigrants anything close to"snakes"

I'm pretty sure you can find legal immigrants who've committed crimes too, shouldn't we ban legal immigration? And whenever a child is born, there's a chance it will be a murder. So we should be birth. Everyone who gives birth to a child or allows it to happen is partially responsible for murder.
 
Because Bar stroller mod drunktard Billy closed my thread, here is the proof Thing1 lied:

Trump did not compare all immigrants to the Snake poem: Thing1 - 30 days
But when I walked in today, did anyone ever hear me do the snake during the campaign? Because I had five people outside say, could you do the snake? I said, well, people have heard it. Who hasn’t heard the *****-snake?***** You should read it anyway. Let’s do it anyway. I’ll do it. Okay. Should we do it? Now, this was a rock ‘N’ roll song, little amendments, a rock ‘N’ roll song, but every time I do it, people -- and you have to thinkof this in terms of immigration. I want people to come into our country. And I want people that are going to help us.

I don’t want people that are going to come in and be accepting all of the gifts of our country for the next 50 years and contribute nothing. I don’t want that. You don’t want that. I want people that are going to help and people that are going to go to work for Chrysler, who is now moving from Mexico into Michigan. And so many others. And apple, by the way. And fox con in Wisconsin. They’re going to need 25,000 workers. I want people that can come in and get to work and work hard, even if it means a learning period that is fine. But I want people that are going to come in, and work. And I want people that love us, and look at security and they want you to be safe and they want to be safe. I want great people coming into this country.

The full speech is at the link.

Thing1 clearly lied and since he demanded others prove he lied (logical fallacy) I just did.

Will he Welch on his 30 self bam bet with PMP?

I doubt it.

Good lord yurt, can you be any more dishonest? You cut off the speech before the money quote, bolded below. The word "illegal" does not appear in the speech and you can't put trump's words in Thing's mouth. Thing didn't lie but Y O U are lying, just because you don't like him and have to pile on. I think you and Pmp need a 30-day vacation for your lying.

"I want great people coming into this country. I don’t want people coming in the way they do now. Because I want people that contribute. So this is called — this is called the snake. And think of it in terms of immigration and you may love it or you may say isn’t that terrible? Okay. If you say isn’t that terrible, who cares. Because the way they treat me, that’s peanuts compared to the way they treat me. Okay. Immigration. "

And just as an aside, I hope everyone noticed how the narcissist had to insert another "woe is me" moment into the speech. He is constitutionally incapable of understanding that he is not the center of everyone's universe, only his own.

I'm Yaya sweetie.

And you can't use your part without what I posted.

Context sweetheart. Context

If you only had what you and Thingy cherry picked, you would be right. But as clear as the sun shines on a given day, with context Trump clearly states he wants immigrants.

Do you deny he said that?
 
I'm pretty sure you can find legal immigrants who've committed crimes too, shouldn't we ban legal immigration? And whenever a child is born, there's a chance it will be a murder. So we should be birth. Everyone who gives birth to a child or allows it to happen is partially responsible for murder.
you really can't be serious with this line of argument?

It's not just being born here; it's about being deported ( sometimes multiple times) and returning to commit more crime.
Or simply coming here illegally and committing crimes. We are sovereign. Why should we put up with any of that?

Build the wall - keep out illegals to begin with; and then keep them from re-entering after being deported

more memes. Immigration is desirable if it's merit based- regardless of ethnicity

Hate to point out the obvious, but, ah, that prediction is kind of like HRC winning the Presidency. Lots of wishing, lots of false bravado, lots of shit hemorrhaging when it does not come to pass. Carry on.

Yeah Trump is your savior. Can't wait until your daughter is a slave. :)

Even Angela Merkel has been made to realise the downside to her decision to let in over a million migrants into Germany. The majority being young male single Muslims, she will probably lose her grip on power as a result.
