"First they came for the immigrants and I didn't speak up

because I wasn't an immigrant. Then they came for ..."

Well, most of you recognize the original quote (and if not, see link below).

Does anyone really think Trump and the criminal Republican Party will be done if they manage to stop immigration completely? Does anyone doubt that blacks, Jews, Asians, Native Americans, and virtually everyone of non-Nordic descent is on their hit list? White supremacy is just another term for "racial purity." We saw what happened the last time a country tried to get rid of all non-Aryans.

And like most children, he tests us to see how much he can misbehave before he gets punished for it. If we don’t hold him accountable, he will do something worse.

By the way, the word Oriental should only be applied to objects. People of that ancestry prefer to be called Asian.

a large plurality of 1 major party have been allowed to vent their most savage instincts, and that is a very difficult genie to put back into the bottle.

for starters, the immigrants must be treated humanely and in accordance with our own laws.
