And the night-raiding is carried out against the women and children ?who are feeling the violence that Hillary Clinton herself gave the thumbs up to with this horrific corporate coup in Honduras?.
US policies very much promoted by ?Clinton herself are generating these refugees, which she then, and the Democrats, are criminalizing when they get here and sending them back,? says Stein.

One of the things that amazes me about politics is that a politician will blast someone for doing "x" but then will turn around and do the same exact thing.
A good example of this Trump's policy on the Veterans Administration. He says he's going to open more locations, reduce fraud, blah blah blah, but the reality of it is he is going to do the same thing anyone else would do - find the "right" person for the job, set some goals, and pray the problem goes away.
Your comments about illegal immigration are interesting, but you are missing a few points. illegal immigration is just that - illegal - and our government has always handled these as crimes. The border patrol, for example, works far from the border arresting people and sending them back home. Criminals are still criminals, and handled the same way no matter who is in office. However, with the way Trump talks he is likely to start a war between legal Americans and illegal aliens... We don't need mobs cruising around large cities looking to beat up illegal aliens.
Also, Trump is playing to the fears of Americans. Isn't illegal immigration down? A quick search on Google say illegal immigration peaked in 2007 at 12 million, and has since dropped to 11 million. Still a lot of illegals.
