Trump bashed unfairly

Sat., July 18, 2015

Your July 12 editorial is typical of the outpouring from the liberal press. The total failure of the federal government, Republican and Democrat, to control our borders has resulted in this huge population of illegal aliens, a high percentage of which are not good additions to our country.

You bash Donald Trump for speaking the truth. I have not heard Trump condemn all aliens or Mexicans, but focuses on the illegals and our failure to control them. I could support welcoming immigrants if I was confident we had checked them out, and weeded out the potential criminals as best we possibly could.
