Courteous comments are welcome. If a comment is not published, it may be due to a technical error. At any rate, do not take offense; it is nothing personal. Slanderous comments will not be published. Anonymity may be tolerated, but politeness is required.
I would like to respond to every comment but my schedule renders it impossible to do so. Please know that I appreciate those who take the time to share their thoughts.
The Leftist press must really believe that all we "Deplorables" are unaware of the inflammatory language they use such as..."Children ripped from the arms of their parents, or"...locked in cages", or "...asylum seekers" instead of illegal immigrants.

They insist President Trump is against immigration instead of making it plain that he is against illegal immigration...and on and on.
