Donald Trump will visit Mexico-Texas border Thursday

Since first receiving backlash last month for saying in his announcement speech that Mexico is sending criminals and rapists into the United States, Trump has discussed immigration at length in interviews and in speeches.

Trump also has criticized former Texas governor and fellow Republican candidate Rick Perry.

The big-talking presidential hopeful will jet to Texas Thursday for a trip to the U.S.-Mexico line followed by a meeting with officials of a union representing border patrol agents.

Trump’s hard charging, blunt talking, tell‐it‐like‐it‐is, pull no punches personality has taken America and the world by storm thanks to the news and social media.

He said Trump had “crossed the line with the American people” and predicted this would be “the beginning of the end with Donald Trump”.

Trump has surged to the top of GOP polls, in large part due to his blunt talk about the nation’s porous border.

Then, over the weekend he came under fire for mocking Senator John McCainexperience as a tortured prisoner of war in Vietnam.

The feud appears not to have bothered some voters who have made Trump a surprise front-runner among the 16 candidates vying for the Republican Party nomination in the November 2016 election.

Companies such as Macy’s, Univision and NBC cut ties with Trump, but the mogul has stuck to his guns, refusing to back down.

McCain said Tuesday he would no longer respond to Trump’s comments.

You were wrong on that, at least in how you worded it.

For years, Jones has cited the flow of people across the U.S.-Mexican border as a prime contributor to drug and economic problems in the country, Ohio and Butler County. Though staff decided that Trump’s candidacy doesn’t merit political coverage, they knew it called for coverage of some nature.

The failures and shortcomings of the criminal justice system should be corrected, but we can not allow tragedies to be used by extremist people and organizations to promote hate and racism.

Another GOP rival, Rand Paul, was more dismissive.
