Trump’s speech also drew liberal activists who gathered outside the casino to protest his immigration views.
Jamiel Shaw Sr., the father of a high school student killed by an undocumented immigrant, will introduce Donald Trump on Saturday at a rally in Phoenix, Trump campaign officials tell CNN.
“When I heard Mr. Trump, I started screaming”. “Finally, somebody that had the guts to say what millions are thinking but are afraid to say”.
New Jersey Governor Chris Christie trailed the top two at 9.5%.
Trump’s campaign event will feature Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, known for his hard-line stance on illegal immigration and controversial enforcement tactics.
“Trump’s touched more than a nerve”.
“[His immigration stance] is not always eloquently worded, but it is the spirit of what most of the GOP base actually thinks”, he added. “He’s awful!” Trump said in his speech.
Since Trump blamed Mexico january of transporting rapists and offender towards the United States, several corporations have cut up relations with them, such as NBC Universal, Univision, and NASCAR. “He’s awful. He’s weak on immigration”.
Republican leaders worry that the outspoken businessman is hurting the party’s standing with minority voters – particularly the nation’s surging Hispanic population – months before voting begins in the 2016 presidential contest. “I know it’s not pleasant, but it was stated as fact”, he said. The first rule of politics when you’re in a hole is stop digging. Lindsey Graham said at the Atlantic Council on Wednesday.
From a policy standpoint, its hard to take Donald Trump’s presidential campaign seriously. One asked how he could be misquoted if the statement was online for people to see. The Washington Post reported that many illegal immigrants, as well as legal ones, were working on the project. It’s also something that puts Democrats on the defensive since they’re the ones demanding that we refuse to enforce our current immigration laws. How many American children have been needlessly molested? Trump’s ideas, like for example, building a wall and having Mexico pay for it, are clownishly naive and logistically impractical.
“I’m really smart”, he said. “We’re keeping a tally of who is on our side and who isn’t”.
Arizona’s Republican Party made it clear Friday it was not involved in the crowded scene.
On Saturday, Trump will travel to Arizona, a hotbed for the nativist immigration sentiment that Trump has sought to capture, to further speak about the southern border.
Trump and other candidates using the San Francisco shooting to argue against all sanctuary policies are just “jumping on the bandwagon”, said Jorge Gonzalez of San Jose, a Mexican immigrant and longtime Latino community leader.
“How could I be tied with this guy?” They judge us without knowing. “And some, I assume, are good people“.
Please wake up to reality or you will wake each day in fear of harm to those you love.
“They make Saddam Hussein look like choir boys”, he said in a criticism of the 2003 invasion of Iraq. “You have to do that”.
And many of Trump’s rivals are gearing up to do just that.
Eventually, I suspect, this will be the cause of his undoing.
