So I spent the morning all fucked-up.

Why? Because I watched part of His ( can't bare even mention his name) rally held yesterday.. And he spent at least 5 minutes on trying to put his base in order by claiming an illegal immigrant murdered a college student.

Turns out the illegal immigrant was not illegal.. He worked at an agricultural business.. See Link.

Certainly an ugly situation....However trying to score political points based on a lie goes way beyond the pale. My God if this story was true.. Trump's primary message to his base, in prep. for Nov. election? Would be:

Dems want to destroy ICE.. Which will enable more illegals into the country who will end up murdering more and more of our loved ones.....

My God... Mollie Tibbetts’ accused killer is in Iowa legally, his lawyer says, calling Trump 'sad and sorry' for weighing in

1. So the President stated that the accused person is guilty on national tv.

Is this going to be a problem for the prosecution?

5. Democrats want to destroy ICE?

Where was ICE when Cristhian Rivera was in the country, allegedly illegally, for years? Was ICE so preoccupied with breaking up families, kidnapping and torturing children, that they couldn't find this bad hombre? Why is Trump gadding about the country at his little pep rallies or spending all that time at his resorts when he should be protecting the American people? How can he possibly face Mollie Tibbetts' family since his reckless indifference caused her murder?

Or would that be impermissible politics playing with this tragic situation? And how do you tell the difference between this and how Trump's playing it?

6. This is a good narrative

I hope our Dem leaders pick up on it. Dana
