Illegal immigrants

I’m not a scholar, but I did graduate college, though at one time I was a high school drop out.

As a college-educated United States citizen and taxpayer who owes the IRS zilch, I’m fed up like many of my fellow citizens with the influx of illegal immigrants who are none of the above. I can’t help but notice that El Chapo Guzman escaped a Mexican prison again. And even more disgusting is that an illegal Mexican immigrant murdered fellow citizen Kathryn Steinle in San Francisco.

Like it or not, Donald Trump and Ann Coulter aren’t hurling bombastic comments as Alvaro Huerta believes. They are tossing factual truth bombs that resonate with legal Americans.
