To see Harris go off on an inaccurate caricature of Trump about "banning all Islam" which is false, not what Trump said, but a cherry picked idea without all the facts speaks loudly. He wants to stop immigration from Muslims until FBI can be confident of vetting the people, as they said now they can't. Trump's policy ideas on this are the only sane ideas out there. The notion we have to accept immigration as if it's a right isn't very bright. To accept immigration that's not good for the country isn't smart. Trump's policy is the only policy that makes sense. When you attribute policy others say Trump has which isn't his at all is pretty incompetent or dishonest.
Also the economic policy of Trump is excellent in it's empirically proven principal. If one didn't know any better and listened to people who bashed it because it would crash the corrupt gravy train, maybe that ill thought conclusion could be made, but that's not what Sam purports to be about.
There is a fact here that a lot of money is behind damaging immigration and most politicians are bought by this. This isn't just in the US, it's world wide. We've seen the horrible effects of going with this, have we not? There is massive corruption in the US government, in fact in the western world and right there for all of this is George Soros, who is heavily pushing destructive immigration in line with his insane (if you care about the people it affects) open borders philosophy he's pushing like crazy.
I have to wonder here if Sam is really honest about this. The bullshit that's coming from his mouth, the way his eyes get when he speaks of Trump, tells me this isn't rational or it's not honest. It's sort of like a Prog nut speaking about racism everywhere. It's not well founded.
