Who is even the immigration issue in anyway similar!? Anyone with an EU passport can come to live and work here. With the huge popularity with Zero Hour contracts means that they can stay indefinitely.

Yeah that’s right throw trump in there again. The reporter doesn’t understand why people voted for trump because she will be in a high paid job on an expensive street somewhere away from the troubles everyday people have. Also people appreciate trumps honesty and directness to answer a question. Other politicians never directly answer a question with a yes or no or truly say what they think

Trump honest. Considering he’s a businessman honestly is hilariously inaccurate

[@lilycanter9164]

trump has literally never once answered a question with a straightforward answer.
