Lindsey Graham calls Donald Trump a ‘wrecking ball’ to future of GOP
In Phoenix he prattled on for 70 minutes, basking in the attention.
It covered ground as close as downtown Phoenix and as far away as China – multiple times.
During his speech at the Phoenix Convention Center, Trump took on his critics and blasted the nation’s illegal immigration problem and USA trade policies. He said that illegal immigrants are what he has a problem with and that legal immigrants are good people, his wife being one of them.
Trump basked in the crowd’s adoration at the event, which drew thousands more people than expected, a few traversing state lines to see the billionaire real-estate mogul in action.

The presidential candidate has seen a sudden boost in the polls, but the first weeks of Trump’s campaign have also been marred by controversy over his offensive remarks about Mexican immigrants, and his refusal to back down. If he becomes president, Trump said, “They will be in such trouble…” It starts to add up. Both were emotionally engaged to end illegal immigration. “I love it. I think it’s great”, he said. I feel very bad and very disappointed with him and with the Republican party for not responding immediately and saying “Enough, stop it”. “He’s the only person talking about saving our country”.

Our enemies are a disaster. “We’re getting taken apart piece by piece, slowly”. “Everyone is ripping us off”. “I know I can trust him”, Shaw continued. “Some things he says may come out and seem wrong to people and that might be because he’s frustrated and mad, too – just like anyone else”. We must build a wall! “If we do not reject this way of thinking clearly, without any ambiguity, we will have lost our way”. “We have got to take care of everybody”.
He threw red meat to the crowd when he told them veterans were being treated like “third class citizens” and won them over with jokes about his hair and his wealth.
In his bid to attain immortality, Trump channeled morsels of his damaged soul into random vessels, called horcruxes. Bowe Bergdahl, who subsequently was charged with desertion and whom Trump dubbed “a no-good traitor”. They laugh at our stupidity. They’re taking our manufacturing jobs. “They don’t have a clue”.
