Not that many think he's going to go "all the way" anyway...
but as an American citizen I am more concerned with the muck and mire this man is stirring up regarding his recent immigration plan for America. Especially during a time when people are trying to prove that there is an out of control racial problem in the country.
So far, the only evidence of a racial problem I'm seeing is a display of conflict happening in our inner-cities where people are trying to demonstrate that we're having race problems between Blacks and White law enforcement.
Although, there is a problem in this regard (always has been), the cause of all this goes far beyond the black/white race issue the liberal media is trying to errect and sustain. I believe it is more about the lack of jobs, the increased lawlessness, flawed politics, etc. in our neighborhoods, and it'll obviously fester and erupt more in the poorer communities first.
But anyone who thinks that Trump's immigration plan is the most reasonable immigration plan out there, has probably stopped reasoning a very long time ago.
It's only because of our crazy fear of political correctness and compramised culture that we're even being entertained by Donald Trump.
Who in their right mind would want such a "reality TV"- egocentric personality running the country? And if he's that way now, imagine what he'll be like when he's president.
In fact, the 14th Amendment protects American citizenship, and he would have to eradicate it or amend it in order to legally strip citizenship. Hasn't the right been complaining of our current presidential administration attacking and trying to eradicate the constitution??
The heart that can condone the dissemination of 12 million families demonstrates a hardness beyond measure.
It's the human sin nature on display when people take the extreme view of hating their neighbor who they don't know, can't idenfity with, and continue fighting not to uncover their Darwinian racial suppremacy that gives birth to prejudice.
We live in a land that rips apart its babies, sells his/her body parts for profit; a land where we attack the moral and social institutions that God has given us for our own generational prosperity. And according to many who are listening to Trump - a land where we strip citizenships from Americans just to get at their undocumented relatives. All to ease their economical insecurities and fears.
The heart that could strip citizenships from people in order to rip apart 12 million families and kick them out of their own country is similar to the heart that could likewise strip the personhood away from a baby in the safety of his/her womb, and sell the body parts. Why? ... Because it's equally an attack on their neighbor, and a stripping away of their personhood.
The best arguments I've heard for similar extreme immigration solutions appeal to a lot of sentimentality like...
"My great grandfather came here with only a quarter and built New York City with his own teeth,...and he did it legally"...
"Too many of them are criminals coming through the border"...
"We can't afford to sustain all these illegal ailiens"...
Many of these do have some truth to them but NONE of them "Trumps", (pun intended) the reality of the greater evil and tragedy of an extreme immigration plan like that of the extreme right.
Truth is, many proud and good standing Americans who are children of undocumented people are extremely valuable to our economy. Many are professionals and tax--paying citizens, and the country would suffer to strip their citizenships and deport them.
Most undocumented people did not hop the border but over-stayed their visas, and our country has for decades allowed the breaking of the laws by both democrats and republican politics. Only after our country experienced an economic hit did we then turn around and start picking on our lower income hardworking neighbors. How messed up is that!
If we care so much about the breaking of laws, perhaps then we should punish ourselves for breaking our own immigration laws, waiving a juicy steak over a hungry man's face, and then hiring him illegally, so we can then separate American families.
Not that it's okay to break the law, but two wrongs never make a right, and we need to discern when the pot is calling the kettle black.
Our Christian leaders need to speak out about these things and stop hiding behind the old supposed politics/religion taboo. When politics crosses truth, justice and morals, it enters the realm of religion.
People need to know that it's not the true social conservative Christian stance that even entertains the thought of employing an extreme immigration view like that of Donald Trump's.
Lets lock down the whole border and enforce our laws moving foward.
We need real immigration reform that is economically viable, physically sensible, and morally right.
Lets pray for our leaders, lets pray for America.
