Have you all heard the latest? Trump ordered a change in the motto on the Statue of Liberty

The new motto will read:

Don't give me your tired, I don't want your poor,
Tell your huddled masses yearning to breathe free to go breathe elsewhere,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore can stay there for all I care.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, anywhere but here.

(Republicans always did have a way with words--not a nice way, but a way, all the same)

And even if he didn't pen it into yet another unconstitutional EO, at least he discussed it seriously with his advisors.

Yes, I totally believe it!

to immigrate here, if they buy (with cash) Trump Tower Condos. Also, they are welcome to bring their pregnant wives here to birth their spawn. Dual US-RUS citizenship can be valuable when daddy has to run from the Russian people.

Even with Trump's limited contact with reality, I think he realizes that Russian billionaires are neither tired nor poor.......
