Can you put yourself in the shoes of an immigrant who would like to have their voice heard in such a forum — during an era where the state cages their children — for even a split second? Does it make sense to you then?

How..? If someone is there with a notepad among the crowd jotting down notes or even has a tape recorder then how would they be known. Plus I’m sure they record the whole event anyway. They are in a public place with a government official how does that make them comfortable?

He should be impeached regardless...

So you'd be ok with Trump walking in on you when you're getting changed or grabbing you by your
uninvited? How about him taking away your health care? Let me call him, he'd love to meet you. Maybe you'll be Space Force commander? -

Ahhh so this is the shit centrists are getting all worked up about


. Hillary just had a private event with no press as well and no one bats an eye yet she's everyone's favorite presidential candidate loser. The irony. -
She's not running for anything, now.
