QOTD: Jan Brewer
by digby
Here’s your responsible Republican Governor for you:
“I believe that Mr. Trump is kind of telling it like it really, truly is,” Brewer said on “CNN Tonight,” calling herself the governor of the “gateway of illegal immigration.”
She went on to echo Trump’s repeated statements calling immigrants, “rapists, killers and drug dealers.”
“I think that the people of Arizona realize that we picked up the tab for the majority of the violence that comes across our border in regards to the drug cartels, the smugglers, the drop houses,” she said.
“It has been horrendous,” Brewer added. “I think everybody knows that he’s right.”
Boy, if we could just get rid of all those immigrants we wouldn’t have any crime at all.
This should be good:
D
onald Trump is holding a massive rally in Phoenix Saturday to take on illegal immigration — an event that generated so much interest that the campaign had to book a larger venue.
Trump will speak at the Phoenix Convention Center, after aides said demand for tickets exceeded space at the original venue, the Biltmore Resort and Spa.
This is where America gets a good look at the GOP base. It’s always clarifying.
Update: And the GOP intelligentsia too:
Bad Trump! But when Obama, advocating gun control, is introduced by relatives of victim of gun violence? Just fine. https://t.co/M8kd6xyfQK— Bill Kristol (@BillKristol) July 11, 2015
They’re just blubbering incoherently now.
