JINGOISM, NATIVISM, CHAUVINISM

Dan Rather took to Facebook on Wednesday night to blast Donald Trump’s long-anticipated speech that promised to outline specifics of his proposed immigration policy.

Trump promised at the top of his Phoenix address that he was “going to deliver a detailed policy address on one of the greatest challenges facing our country today, illegal immigration.” But, as Rather notes, the GOP presidential candidate’s Phoenix appearance was extremely light on policy details.

“He claimed it would be a detailed policy address, and yet from the start his tone was a seething, angry attack on what he described as a world of dangerous murderers and rapists who seem to be roaming ‘sanctuary cities.’ Focusing on a few isolated and already well-documented tragedies, he painted the entire undocumented world with the casual brush of violence,” Rather wrote.

“…He would say “and 3”, “and 4” as if it were a detailed list of proposal, but any sense of order was swamped by a tsunami of rhetoric and tone.”

“But any details are beside the point. With a raspy roar, leaning over the podium, Trump delivered his message with glee – This is our country and we are being overwhelmed by hordes not fit to be in our country. He suggested that “These People” are well known to law enforcement and could be rounded up with ease. It was a line that seemed more in keeping with the culture of the old East Germany than the United States. ‘We have got to have a county folks’ he summed it up. ‘Under a Trump Administration it’s called America first.'”

Rather also commented on the speech’s intended audience. “The crowd – nearly all white from the looks of the cutaway shots – ate it up with a hostility that seems in keeping with those who have flocked to Trump’s angry march through this campaign season,” Rather continued.

CNN PANEL DESTROYS NELL HUGHES

Wing nut Scottie Nell Hughes got laughed at by fellow panelists on CNN Sunday as the group was discussing GOP candidate Donald Trump’s confusing evolution on immigration policy.

Republican commentator Tara Setmayer called out Trump’s switcharoo by citing an earlier position to deport DREAMers and rescind President Barack Obama’s executive orders for immigrants. She alleges that Trump surrogates are spinning themselves into knots trying to swear that their candidate hasn’t changed his position, but it’s nothing more than BS.

“He’s built his entire campaign around this idea,” she said. “He separated himself from Jeb Bush, Marco Rubio and John Kasich by this idea of ‘get everybody out.’ Right now, he sounds just like Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio.”

When asked if Trump was changing his position by CNN host Jim Sciutto, Hughes, seemed to lead the conversation on a journey around the details Trump has always advocated around E-verify and other specifics. She maintained that his position has never changed.

Setmayer and Scott Bolden outright laughed at Hughes as she continued to ramble.

“Yes or no!” Setmayer demanded. “You’re just going around and around! Just say yes! You’re not going to like spontaneously combust if you admit your candidate changed his position!”

“Please, don’t be rude folks, it doesn’t look pretty,” Hughes begged, before continuing.

Bolden called BS on the entire thing. “Whenever you debate the Trump team you ask them if he’s changed his position. They say, ‘No, he’s evolved.’ You take them to the tape or the ten video tapes where he’s said he’s softened, he’s going to have a deportation force, he’s going to support Operation Wetback from the 1940s and you go back to them and they say, ‘Hey didn’t say that!’ or ‘He said something different!’ or ‘You don’t understand.’ Like, should I believe them or my lying ears or my lying eye, as my grandmother use to say. It actually makes no sense what so ever.”

“It’s a seismic shift! This was a core value!” Bolden continued. “It’s one thing to pivot, to explain and evolve,” but he said it’s another to change your entire position.

“Would a pivot be acceptable?” Sciutto asked, curious if the word would work to describe Trump’s new position. Hughes said that it was more about what Congress would consider acceptable in terms of legislation.

“Condescending laughs have no place right now,” Hughes said as Bolden and Setmayer continued to laugh.

“Oh, Scottie, get over it, please. If your candidate would learn some policy we would have a solution. It’s been 15 months and he still doesn’t know what he’s doing and that’s the concern,” Setmayer slammed.

Hughes fans followed her appearance with complaints that the two panelists were “rude” to Hughes.

PIERSON CONTINUES HER STUPIDITY

A Cheeto Jesus surrogate said Saturday that the Republican presidential candidate had appeared to change his hardline views on immigration because he didn't want to be like President Barack Obama.

Appearing on Fox News, extreme idiot Katrina Pierson was asked why Clownstick's “clear” immigration policies had become “complicated” over the past week.

“Well it is not really complicated,” she replied. “Mr. Trump is simply trying to have a discussion about what needs to happen and what he wants to do. He has said many times in many rallies that he doesn’t want to be like Barack Obama and start signing executive orders, and he will have to work with Congress to get some of the more complex things done. But his overall message has not changed. There is no path to citizenship. There is no path to — those here illegally will have to leave.”

Trump has vowed to kick more than 10 million undocumented immigrants out of the country using a “deportation force” and to build a wall along the U.S. border with Mexico. But Trump has suggested he is willing to “soften” his hardline views.

Pierson said Trump is merely using different words to describe his immigration plan.

“He’s just not using those words anymore, and he does want to work with people, which is why he said that in order to get this process done,” she remarked.

STORE POLICY

COURTESY OF MIKE KEEFE

If you’re a moderate, liberal or independent you need to tune in and listen closely to what the right is saying – especially the Trump voter. It’s time to unite against the elephant menace.

By now we all know the hallmarks of Trumpenstein’s platform. All feel good ideas to the 35% of the righty who wants to make America great - like it was when women stayed in the kitchen, immigrants were the cheap help that came over the border to pick our fields and didn't stay, and government was small. You know, 1950.

Trump’s boarder wall makes me laugh. The problem is walls mean nothing to the motivated criminals, especially the drug cartels. These are the same guys that started using submarines when the Coast Guard amped-up their surveillance of the seas. Listen to what the Marines have to say about walls.

What pisses me off most is the utter contempt they have toward those that disagree. According to them we’re weak, racists against whitey, that we hate the military, that we don’t love our country like they do. Donald himself called us "pussies". "They want their country back!"

Well friend, we won the election. The Presidency is ours. Oh and we’re going to win this one too, albeit only if you get out and vote – take your neighbor, grandma, Uncle Joe. Make sure your college student is registered and has an absentee ballot.

I don’t plan on giving this country back to these tribal idiots anytime soon. It’s store policy – no returns.

TRUMP LIKE MOST TEABAGGERS, NO PLAN FOR HIS LUNACY

Donald Trump has made a hard-line stance on undocumented immigrants a hallmark of his campaign. On ABC’s This Week, he was pressed repeated on his pledge to immediately deport every undocumented immigrant. Although credible sources estimate there are around 11 million such immigrants, Trump claimed there were as many as 30 million.

But pressed repeatedly on how he would accomplish this monumental feat, Trump had no answers.

STEPHANOPOULOS: So if there’s no idea, how are you going to round them all up?
Where are you going to get the money, where are you going to get the forces?
Exactly how are you going to do it?
What are the specifics here?
TRUMP: George, it’s called management. And the first thing we have to do is secure the border. But it’s called management. And we’ll get people back in, the really good ones, we’re going to expedite it so they get back in, so they can at least come in legally.
But we have to do it…
STEPHANOPOULOS: You keep declaring how you’re going to do it…
TRUMP: It’s management.
STEPHANOPOULOS: — but you don’t say…
TRUMP: We don’t…
STEPHANOPOULOS: — how.
TRUMP: Excuse me, George?
STEPHANOPOULOS: You declare how you’re going to to it, but you don’t say how.
TRUMP: George, I’m telling you, it’s called management. You can do this and we can expedite the good ones to come back in. And everybody wants that. But they have to come in legally.

An analysis by the Center For American Progress estimates deporting 11.3 million people would cost $10,070 per person, or $114 billion. That only covers the “direct cost of physically deporting unauthorized immigrants.” The conservative American Action Forum, considering the total cost to the economy, estimates mass deportation of all undocumented immigrants would cost between $420 billion and $620 billion and take 20 years.

At the end of a lengthy exchange with Trump, Stephanopoulos stressed that he still hasn’t “heard the specifics on how you are going to do that.” Trump appeared to acknowledge he hasn’t offered any. “Oh, you’ll hear it, George. Don’t worry about it,” Trump said.

A recent Gallup poll found that just 19 percent of Americans supported mass deportation.

IF THE GOVERNMENT IS LEGITIMATE, THE GOP HAS A WAY OF SHUTTING THE WHOLE THING DOWN

MSNBC'S RACHEL MADDOW DISCLOSES THE TIES OF THE GOP TO KKK AND GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWNS

Masterful as ever, Rachel Maddow last night reported on how the Heritage Foundation is pushing Republicans to retaliate against President Obama’s immigration plan with a government shutdown just like the one Heritage helped orchestrate in 2013.

As often the case is with Rachel, you wonder were the beginning of the story is taking us, and how and why this is important to today's news - and then she gets to the point, and the light bulb goes off in the brain, AHA - and this is why she is the best in her business, bar none, their is no comparison.

Who knew that some of the GOP best policies come from racists?

While the above story is disturbing, more mind numbing is just how dumb Americans are. Watch the below priceless gem.

Just when you think our country could be no more ignorant, a segment like this proves that the bar is still rising.
