  1. Trump's right on the issue of border security. It is a national emergency. In fact, he should invite Obama and Hillary to the address to show bi-partisan cooperation on border security. They both wanted a permanent border barrier and saw the risks to national security. Something the current Democrats don't seem to care about. Obama: "We simply cannot allow people to pour into the United States undetected, undocumented, unchecked.” Hillary: “I voted to build a barrier to try to prevent illegal immigrants from coming in.”

  2. It is a national emergency. It has been for decades. It's why both Obama and Hillary wanted a permanent barrier. They saw the risks to national security. Something the current Democrats don't seem to care about. Obama: "We simply cannot allow people to pour into the United States undetected, undocumented, unchecked.” Hillary: “I voted to build a barrier to try to prevent illegal immigrants from coming in.”

  3.  @kikijean4768  ...It's a massive generalization to claim we currently have border security. We only have it in a tiny percentage of the 2,000 mile border. Even the current Democrats leaders say we need to significantly enhance security. The border is a couple thousand miles long with only a tiny percentage protected with any form of deterrent. Which is why both Obama and Hillary recognized the need for complete barrier. Did you disagree with Obama and Hillary when they supported a border barrier?

  4.  @Sal-tripin  ..I agree the drug war is a different national emergency. But I don't understand your position on border security. Your original comment suggests you not only disagree with Trump...but also with Obama and Hillary. If so, what's your solution for the border?

  5. Here's what would be great for the country. Trump should invite Obama and Hillary to the address to show bi-partisan cooperation on border security. They both wanted a permanent border barrier and saw the risks to national security. Something the current Democrats don't seem to care about. Obama: "We simply cannot allow people to pour into the United States undetected, undocumented, unchecked.” Hillary: “I voted to build a barrier to try to prevent illegal immigrants from coming in.”
