I am guessing the left are forgetting this.



Humm... Flip-flopping much?

Ben Carson: Bill Clinton’s Position On Illegal Immigration Is The Same As Trump’s [VIDEO]

...
“All Americans, not only in the states most heavily affected but in every place in this country, are rightly disturbed by the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country,” Clinton said during the speech. “The jobs they hold might otherwise be held by citizens or legal immigrants. The public service they use impose burdens on our taxpayers.”

FDR interned Japanese American CITIZENS in CAMPS for YEARS. That was way worse than what DJT has done.

Heck, what about HIllary Clinton saying the same things in 2006... But like you said, when it's not their man/woman saying it, the left want to claim "that's racist, that's fascism" blah, blah, blah...



Heck, she voted for building a wall in 2006 voting for a 700 mile anti-immigration wall...

President Trump is simply SHOWING that he cares, by enacting policies that safeguard Americans. Democrats only held think-tank sessions and talked a lot.

You forget, FDR was a Democrat. So he gets the "We know he was evil, but he advanced our goals and the ends justify the means" pass from the progressive left.

So even though he did horrible things, he's one of the greatest presidents of all time, according to them.

It's a cancer.

Back then Democrats were conservatives and Republicans were liberals.

A lot of people think this is a Trump Idea. It is not, he is just pushing it more than others have done in the past. He borrowed the Idea from past presidents.

If Bill Clinton ran for President today he would be called a racist, bigot, xenophobic, southern good ole' boy. Let's not forget Clinton declared "the era of big government is over" - obviously because he hates blacks and Mexicans. There are many things I dislike about Bill's policies, but compared to today's Democrats, he was practically a right-winger.

Wow. How quickly we are willing to forget. And both sides of the house stood up and applauded. But hey, programing has been rampant the last 8 years so who can blame them.

Good guy Donald Trump saved his dear friend President Bill Clinton from returning to the white house as the first dude. I hope he repays the favor soon by coming to the defense of Trump against these unhinged emotional attacks from the extreme left who have taken over the Democratic party and forced those within the party who adhere to reason and logic into silence.

They avoid threads like these and let them die as fast and as efficiently is possible.

Not true.

Actually, FDR was a Progressive. He needed a new name for his ideology and just stole the term "Liberal" because "Progressive" sounded too third-party for him and Liberal was a descriptor for an ideal. Liberal was not a term used for a political party before FDR.

As an amusing aside, he also needed a new name for Republicans to make them sound bad so he renamed them "Conservative", which at the time sounded old-fashioned and out of date.

FDR actually manufactured the terms we use now to describe the two parties.

So technically back then Democrats were Liberal and Republicans were Conservative.

He isn't PUSHING anything!

He is simply telling these political zealots living large off the tax payer dime to follow the law and do their damn job!

Hell, what kind of country do we live in when those who represent us are exempt from following the same laws than can get us SERFS locked up behind bars?

Democrats have what is known as the "history of now" meaning you must ignore everything else they've done up until current day. All that matters is their current position even if said position is hypocritical or illogical.

For many of us he was ALWAYS a rightwinger, hiding his conservatism behind smatterings of liberal sounding rhetoric.
