No tax cuts - act of war against a few asylum seekers from central America (months away) "I'm good at counting crowd sizes" - and extortion - that's just yesterday from POTUS.

Fear campaign by Trump and Bovzo and company are loving it.

        they're asylum seekers; that's not illegal. ChicagoIrish 2:04pm · 11/1/18
        
        They are migrants, not asylum seekers. That distinction changes their legal status. NedoftheHill 3:01pm · 11/1/18
