What about the 'shithole' countries two of his wives came from? My guess is if they weren't

'shithole' countries, they would have stayed put. People come here for the opportunities America provides in spite of the fact that we have an f'ing Dotard for a president.

Also, does everyone know that Melania's parents are living here in the US? They too are probably U.S. citizens by now? I remember reading about her parents being in New York before she relocated to Wash D.c. and I thought, "They're probably here to help her with their son while everyone is in D.C." Then I read another article about her that mentioned her parents have their own condo in Trump Tower and they have been here since Barron was born and split their time between New York and Mar-a-logo. Trump talks about the US Lottery system for immigrants that once they obtain legal status, allows them to bring family members. How is Melania any different? She hit her own Lottery jackpot.

1. Donald basically bought a wife, is what his current marriage boils down to.

I dont mean to disparage his wife, just observing what a STARK contrast to the most recent occupants.

2. Those aren't shithole countries because their citizens are white people.

That's where he draws the distinction. It's OK for Melania to be here because she's white.

3. If they're white, they're alright

If they're brown, put them down.

4. Damn , love this place.

First thing I said out loud when I heard Trump's most current racist remarks.

Wait till he makes a big mistake and makes fun of Lindsey Graham for being gay in front of the press. I betting, within two weeks.

5. His first wife too--

Came from what was then a Soviet satellite country.

She brought her parents over. CHAIN IMMIGRATION.

BTW, guess which ethnic group in the United States is the most highly educated?

Nigerians.
http://www.chron.com/news/article/Data-show-Nigerians-the-most-educated-in-the-U-S-1600808.php

"Although they make up a tiny portion of the U.S. population, a whopping 17 percent of all Nigerians in this country held master's degrees while 4 percent had a doctorate, according to the 2006 American Community Survey conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau. In addition, 37 percent had bachelor's degrees."

What Trump doesn't realize is that people in Norway don't have much reason to come here. They already. have good medicine and educational opportunities (Better than ours).

But Nigerians? Hey, they come here to get an education, stay to work as engineers and scientists. The Chronicle quotes one woman as saying it's not big deal to graduate from college in their community. You have to get a master's degree to impress a Nigerian these days!

This was like my family, which came from Poland-- third generation-- 5 PhDs. I'd match them up against the Trump family anyday. (But maybe not against the average Nigerian-American, I guess.)
