David Duke: "Every new immigrant adds to our crime problem, our welfare rolls and unemployment of American citizens...." (Duke -1982 interview)
Trump Immigration Reform Plan: "The impact in terms of crime has been tragic. In recent weeks, the headlines have been covered with cases of criminals who crossed our border illegally only to go on to commit horrific crimes against Americans."
Donald Trump: the Mexican government: "...send the bad ones over because they don't want to pay for them, they don't want to take care of them." - (Conservative Review)
Donald Trump: "When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best. They’re sending people that have lots of problems. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists."
Donald Trump: "The costs for the United States have been extraordinary: U.S. taxpayers have been asked to pick up hundreds of billions in healthcare costs, housing costs, education costs, welfare costs, etc."
Donald Trump: "Likewise, tremendous infectious disease is pouring across the border. The United States has become a dumping ground for Mexico and, in fact, for many other parts of the world." - (Business Insider)
David Duke: We are being invaded in the Southwest as if a foreign army were coming over the border. The Mexican immigrants in these states are of the lowest social strata. Their future political impact as voters will be tremendous. They will certainly strengthen the leftist power block. They're going to vote for legislation that will take more and more hard-earned money away from the productive middle class in the form of taxes and social programs. (1982)
Rand Paul: "If you look at new immigrants from Mexico, they register three to one Democrat. The Democrat Party is for easy citizenship for allowing them to vote." (May, 2010)
Rush Limbaugh: What is happening on our Southern border is not immigration. This is an invasion. And it's not just happening here. [...] It's on purpose. This invasion is sponsored. This invasion is desired. Both political parties in Washington have their own interests in this invasion. The Democrats see new voters. [...]
They need to replace them. The Democrat Party also needs a permanent underclass of dependent, uneducated, low-skilled people who are going to have to be dependent on government to live. Ideal Democrat voters.
Rush Limbaugh: Okay, if the word "invasion" is too much for you, if that makes you uncomfortable -- you don't want to think of the daily border crossings as an invasion -- then think of it as colonization.
They're not assimilating. There is no desire to assimilate, and we are not forcing it. We are making it very easy for subcultures to exist as subsets of the American culture or with no relationship to the American culture, and it's destructive. - (Rush Limbaugh Show / Aug 19, 2015)

TRUMPTY DUMPTY BUILT A GREAT WALL...
David Duke: Duke's plan for stemming the flow of illegal aliens into the United States called for sealing the border. "I'd make the Mexican-American border almost like a Maginot Line," he said, referring to a system of heavy fortifications that France built on its eastern border before World War II. He said he would prohibit businesses from hiring illegal aliens, round up all the illegal aliens, and deport them. He laid out his plan on October 16, 1977, as he and Tom Metzger, his California grand dragon, toured the San Ysidro Port of Entry near San Diego. [Tyler Bridges / Rise of David Duke, page 67]
Trump: "I will build a great wall — and nobody builds walls better than me, believe me —and I’ll build them very inexpensively. I will build a great, great wall on our southern border, and I will make Mexico pay for that wall. Mark my words."
Trump: I am impressed with the success of the double- and triple-layered fence in places like Yuma, Arizona. The wall there is a serious 20-foot wall. It has three walls separated by 75-yard "no man's lands" for border agents to zoom up and down in vehicles. It also has cameras, radio systems, radar, and pole-topped lights. After the triple-layered fence was installed, the 120-mile stretch of the US-Mexican border known as the Yuma sector experienced a 72 percent plunge in illegal immigrant apprehensions.
We need to be ready to build other kinds of fences, too. The point is that properly built walls work. We just need the political will to finish the job. And by the way, finishing the job will employ a lot of construction workers. Moreover, I call on Congress and the president to hire another 25,000 border patrol agents and give them the aerial equipment they need, such as Predator drones, to provide real-time aerial reconnaissance information to agents guarding the border wall.

George Will: Trump evidently plans to deport almost 10 percent of California’s workers and 13 percent of that state’s K-12 students. He is, however, at his most Republican when he honors family values: He proposes to deport intact families, including children who are citizens. "We have to keep the families together," he says, "but they have to go." Trump would deport everyone, then "have an expedited way of getting them ["the good ones"; "when somebody is terrific"] back." Big Brother government will identify the "good" and "terrific" from among the wretched refuse of other teeming shores.
Trump proposes seizing money that illegal immigrants from Mexico try to send home. This might involve sacrificing mail privacy, but desperate times require desperate measures. -

ANCHOR BABIES
Trump: "We're going to keep the families together ... but they have to go."
TRUMP: The root cause of all the welfare payments to illegal aliens is the so-called "anchor baby" phenomenon, which is when illegal immigrant mothers have a baby on American soil. The child automatically becomes an American citizen, Though this was NEVER the intention of the Fourteenth Amendment, which states, "All citizens born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and the state wherein they reside." The clear purpose of the Fourteenth Amendment, ratified in 1868, three years after the end of the Civil War, was to guarantee full citizenship rights to now emancipated former slaves. It was not intended to guarantee untrammeled immigration to the United States. - ( Time to Get Tough, by Donald Trump, p.140-141 , Dec 5, 2011 )
--------------------
NOTE: The term "anchor children" tracks back to the Vietnamese boat people in the late 1980s.
They are "anchor children," saddled with the extra burden of having to attain a financial foothold in America to sponsor family members who remain in Vietnam. - (A Profile of a Lost Generation - Dec. 13, 1987 / LA Times)
---------------------
RUSH LIMBAUGH: The Constitution says nothing about anchor babies. [...] Everybody's upset over the term, as though it's some sort of PC, political correctness violation or something, "anchor babies." (Rush Limbaugh radio show August 15, 2015)
Ron Paul: We absolutely must get rid of the anchor baby loophole otherwise we will be stuck with millions of "next generation" illegals. (Source: DavidDuke.com, Jan 1, 2008 / davidduke.com/ron-paul-on-border-enforcement-issues/

VIVA MEXICO!
David Duke: "Mexico is great to visit, I’ve been there a few times. I respect all peoples of the world." (Podcast / July 4, 2006)
Trump: I love the Mexican people," Trump told Sean Hannity on Fox News on Thursday night. "They have tremendous spirit. They have tremendous vibrance and life." - (Newsmax / July 10, 2015)

THIRD PARTY RUN
Duke: "I want to say this to George Bush -- you know, whether I run third party or not is going to depend on what he does." (NYTimes)
Analysts say Mr. Duke's greatest peril to Mr. Bush could be if he uses the primaries to build a basis for an independent challenge next fall, which Mr. Duke said today he was "not ruling out." (NYTimes Dec. 5, 1991)
Trump: "I’m a front-runner — obviously I’d much rather run as Republican and let that be clear," Mr. Trump said on MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe.’ "And I just want to see if somebody gets in that I like and if I’m treated with respect, I would not run as an Independent. But I want to leave the option open just in case that doesn’t happen."

POLITICAL CORRECTNESS / 1991
(On Duke): Another theme news media prepackaged for Duke was the idea that complaints about racist speech are often evidence of intolerant "political correctness." The torrent of articles on the "P.C." menace has helped shift attention away from racism towards the alleged overzealousness of anti-racist activists. On Nightline (11/15/91) and elsewhere, Duke deflected criticism of his racial appeals by claiming to be a victim of "politically correct" speech codes. - (Friendly Fascism: National Media Give David Duke a Face-Lift - FAIR.org., Jan/Feb 1992 By Martin A. Lee)
TRUMP: I think the big problem this country has is being politically correct.
(APPLAUSE)
I’ve been challenged by so many people, and I don’t frankly have time for total political correctness. And to be honest with you, this country doesn’t have time either. This country is in big trouble. We don’t win anymore. We lose to China. We lose to Mexico both in trade and at the border. We lose to everybody.
