But he didn't say anything inflammatory and unsubstantiated towards Mexican Immigrants


Lets put you in a group and then lets rephrase a comment. This one is easy, since we're all gamers, so lets say I said:

"I'm sure some gamers are good people, but some of them are murderers and rapists in there too that we need to be worried about that."

You wouldn't find that to be an inflammatory statement? Pretty sure the game community would melt down over that.

Of course not.  Why would I find that to be an inflammatory statement?

Let me ask you some questions and make some statements.  There are two countries that border the United States.  When people are talking about illegal immigrants, they are talking about those that are crossing the Mexico-United States border.

So my questions to you is this:
What is the nationality of the illegal immigrants coming from Mexico?
If you were to answer "Mexican", you would be incorrect.  That is like saying every single Muslim is a terrorist.  
Can a person not drive into Mexico and then cross the Mexico-US border?  Can someone not fly into Mexico and then cross the US-Mexico border?  If they are crossing that border illegally, are they Mexican too?  Of course not!  

So why on Earth are people labeling these illegal immigrants with a nationality?  God forbid that there is a Chinese person who crosses the US-Mexican border illegally.  Are you going to classify that Chinese person a Mexican too?  

So trump says that there are illegal immigrants who are rapists, killers, drug dealers etc coming from Mexico.  Uhhh what other country is there where they can cross from?  He can't say they are coming from Brazil because Brazil doesn't border the US.  You obviously have heard of the Cartel (drug dealers) and the elderly woman that was raped and killed with hammer by an illegal immigrant.  So yes, that statement is true. 

Including in the drug dealer, rapist, and criminals, he also said there are good people coming over as well. So what on Earth did he say incorrectly?  Every single statement that he said was factual and in no way was directed towards any nation. It is people like you and many others who are labeling these illegal immigrants as Mexicans when they are ALL DIFFERENT forms of nationality.
