Oh wow you can trot out some sympathetic immigrant! Liberals refuse to engage on policy. It’s all feelings. Just show a picture of a hardworking, crying immigrant who everyone will sympathize with and ignore the crime rate and welfare dependency that so many others of them bring with them, because they are future democrats after all.

DP... did you work hard like that guy and rise above his poor background? Did you serve your country? This guy is literally the epitome of the American dream and the opposite of everything Trump -- giving his life to his adopted country and working hard to get out of poverty. So many Americans, white, black, etc... have done this in the past, and all you can say about him is "a sympathetic immigrant"? I don't have sympathy for him. I have admiration and gratitude for him and am in awe of him, but not for Trump.

Agreed. I don't have "sympathy" for people who bust their ass to make a better life for themselves. This guy doesn't want Republicans' sympathy; he wants their respect and dignity.

Is that too much to ask for, Republicans?

You are just as dumb as he is.

Immigration policies should not be based on how nice the countries the immigrants come from are. That is irrelevant.

You're not very bright. Wealthy immigrants are much better than poor immigrants. That's life. And 99.9% of the immigrants from Haiti and Africa will be poor. That is reality.

DP... so why did we let in Trump's mother? She was a poor maid from Scotland. And don't say, "We don't need poor immigrants now" because that is what Americans have been saying for over 100 years.

Half the people who come in from Central American countries end up on welfare. Why wouldn't we want to restrict our immigration to people who are likely to benefit American society rather than be a net drain? We can't even take care of the poor people already here.

Again, please cite statistics to back up this claim.

You've got it backward; it's Trump who refused to engage in policy ... and you too. Trump didn't say he wants to limit Haitian (or African or Norwegian) immigration to only those who are hardworking and smart. He said he wants immigrants from Norway, and none from Haiti or African countries. "Norwegian" is not synonymous with "hardworking and smart."

He's a racist. Just own it.

Don't worry because President Trump came out today to suggest that he did not use such reprehensible language, this is all a big lie, a mischaracterization of what he actually said, and more fake news made up by the Dems in attendance, and propagated by the media. Of course, I knew there would be some reasonable explanation.

Looking at Port au Prince, the photos are really quite scary that people can live like that.

I guess it really shows how well people can survive in adverse conditions with open sewer pits.

Except that’s not what you’re asking for. You’re asking for, or rather demanding, that millions upon millions of illegal immigrants who broke the law be given amnesty, and that our immigration policy Remain one based on chain migration from third world countries and not on the type of merit that the young man in the photo clearly has.

Are you sure you know anything about immigrants from Africa and their profile? I get the strong sense that you do not. And we are talking about immigrants - not refugees. I understand some of you (including POTUS) get that mixed up.

Likewise, NPR notes that Port Au Prince has no sewer system!

The cumulative sewage of 3 million people flows through open ditches. It mixes with ubiquitous piles of garbage. Each night, an all-but-invisible army of workers called bayakou descend into man-sized holes with buckets to remove human waste from septic pits and latrines, then dump it into the canals that cut through the city. This is why they have issues with Cholera.



Were you aware that just before the article you posted Haiti was hit with one of the deadliest earthquakes in history and it still has not recovered?

Except the man in the picture - that would be 2nd Lt. Alix Schoelcher Idrache to you is actually a “chain migrant.” He came to join his father.

And far too many of them don’t share western values either and come from backwards cultures that no first world country in its right mind would want to encourage.

Give me ONE example?

I have traveled to Haiti many times. Before the earthquake, it was actually a pretty nice place to be. It has not recovered from the earthquake and may never recover.
