Another insane allegation

... Donald Trump says migrants are coming to burn down your hamlets.

“You see how bad it’s getting when you look at what’s going on with migrants attacking villages and cities throughout the Midwest,” Trump said at a rally on Saturday in North Carolina.

Of course, there are no reports of migrant attacks anywhere in the Midwest ...

Trump needs an attendant parade of encircling fire trucks, just in case he spontaneously combusts

Now, I once lived in a very small town that may be considered a village by population size and close family relationships, but NOBODY in that burg would tolerate it being called a "village".

Yeah, too much TV, not enough reality or reading. He is slipping into fantasy land. Perhaps we can convince him he's sleeping beauty and pricked his finger on the spindle. Go to sleep baby boy. When you wake, everyone will love you. Go to sleep and dream of your true love's kiss waking you....

That was a word that the author used. I didn’t see it in the quote of what Trump said. He said villages and cities. He probably doesn’t even know the word hamlet, his vocabulary is so limited.

Are these the ones with thatch houses? And resident idiots? Are they attacking with spears and slingshots throwing rocks? Are those just for the villages or are they attacking the cities with them as well?

So many questions.

And him spontaneously combusting is very near the top of my wish list.

about 400 people. With our rudimentary spanish classes we would try to talk to the "migrant kids" - kids from Texas and other places who came up in the summer with their families to work on the farms. Nobody was burning down anything! They were really hard workers, and we were excited to meet people from outside our area.
