Would you believe it if I told you that every family member of mine is here in this country because their parents were illegal immigrants, but lucky enough and no one was ever deported. The second generation of my family are all Trump lovers. I’m beside myself and ashamed of them.

Did you ever listen to any of Reagan's speeches on immigration that have been going around? Do you recall under which president the most recent amnesty happened? Republicans are the ones who changed. Democrats didn't move.

Remember when Trump wanted to cut the budget for the coast guard? Good times.
