What it is is an attempt by Numbnuts to further divide us by characterizing a whole group of people (Muslims, Latinos) as "invaders", "criminals", "rapists", "terrorists", "drug dealers". He has made the political calculation that doing this will energize his base and he believes that, so long as his base remains fired up he can just win his next election. We have never had an immigration crisis in this country and, without the bile and hate speech spewed 24/7 by Idiot Boy and his chorus line of low information hate-spreaders on cable tv and am radio no one would believe we have one today.
