Part II: IMMIGRATION: The Albatross Around Trump and The Republican Party's Neck

Lately, we have seen some national news folks finally informing their readers how Trump and his party's lack of an immigration plan and policy are fueling what has been taken place with illegal immigration and border security that Trump is trying to shift blame to the democrats.  But the readers of PolitiDose have known full well that failure of Trump and his party to address the process the past two years.  It has all been explained in PolitiDose commentary long ago.

The latest with Trump's mentally unbalanced rhetoric is to release illegal immigrants to the so called sanctuary cities so democrats would be blamed.  It is Trumps way to try and damage democrats during the next congressional election cycle.  The trumpet man is still chapped because the courts have upheld the legality of those cities.  Trump also added to that a suggestion that families be separated once again at the border.  An issue he has already flipped flopped on and where a court has ordered the President to reunite the separated families.  Then CNN reports that Trump said he would pardon the top border official if he were to get arrested for breaking federal law by denying asylum seekers entry into the U.S.  That would be an impeachable offense.  Trump's immigration rhetoric shifts from one position to another because of his mental condition.

The state of the nations immigration problem has taken a turn for the worst on Trump and the republicans watch and they are left with only their so called tough rhetoric and two years of lost empty promises.  And this is the President who told the world during the 2016 Presidential campaign that HE was the only candidate who could solve the immigration problem.  The President even lacks the mental capacity to hire people for his cabinet that know what they are doing.  A ton of his appointments have come and gone and he is now replacing many in the Department of Homeland Security and ICE, the very departments that play a major role in immigration.  What a tragic situation for a President's so called priority.
