A First-Gen Mexican Immigrant Explains Why He Wants Trump to Build a Wall
10th December 2016
“What appeals to me about Trump is the same message that appeals to all Americans that voted for him,” Perez, 32, told The Daily Caller News Foundation. “Trump’s message is about putting America first and doing what’s best for the American people, even if it’s not the best for me.”
He’s a first generation immigrant from Mexico City now residing in Utah on a student visa.
“Some friends of mine make fun of me for supporting Trump and his ‘racist policies,’” he added. “But when we discuss it deeper and they think about it, they agree it’s natural to feel protective of your home.”

I have to hand it to Donald: he managed somehow to convince millions of Americans to vote against their common sense and their own best interest.

Of course, this guy’s opinion doesn’t really matter; he’s going to be deported soon along with all the rest of ’em. Or so Trump said.
But he lied about so many things he was going to do, maybe that’s just one more.

That’s your idea of common sense and your idea of their best interest; the Left is really great on deciding those for other people, which is why those other people aren’t voting for Leftists any more.

Well, that’s the thing: Trump DIDN’T say, you just made that part up. This guy is here legally, and is doing his best to qualify to stay legally, and those are the kind of people we want. If you dig the wax out of your ears and listen to what he actually said, it contained the word ‘illegal’. Feel free to look it up.
