Has Donald Trump been using symbolism when referring
to the construction of a “wall” to keep illegal immigrants out of America? Could
it be that the “wall” he has spoken so much about is simply the enforcement of
American laws that Barack Obama has so smilingly disobeyed for eight years?
Since we had no
wall along the preponderance of the border with Mexico prior to Obama, and
since the simple act of enforcing the law was, in those pre-Obama years, enough
to keep unwanted and undeserving people out of our country, if Mr. Trump, at
this point by simply insisting that laws be obeyed, can make this tactic
perform like a physical wall and control the passage of illegals into America,
then it’s fine with me.
But no sane person, looking at the turbulent world of nuclear-armed
dictatorships and unending wars and terrorism, can think that merely enforcing
laws will keep bad guys out. So I’m placing my trust in Donald Trump that a
tall and long wall will actually be built along the border with Mexico to deter
those who will not be halted from crossing by merely more strictly enforcing
our laws, but instead will resort to levels of violence if they want to enter
badly enough.
It’s too bad that Mexicans and Central Americans don’t
make the bold and difficult decision to stay home with their families and make
changes in their home nation to ensure liberty and prosperity for their
children and grandchildren in a culture and language that they understand and
can comfortably function in, instead of coming to the foreign nation of America
where their struggles only continue. But American liberal Democrats tempted,
and in some cases even outright invited, these unfortunate people, with
promises of welfare and sanctuary for all who would come here illegally and
vote Democrat in each election, so one can’t really blame the immigrants who
are being used by the Democrat Party of Obama and Hillary. It’s American
Democrats who are causing additional misery and hardship, for Mexicans and
Americans alike, and all for the Democrats’ selfish political gain.
Trump’s the man, and I back his plan.
