Clinton: Closing borders 'unrealistic'
Well, it looks like Hillary Clinton has decided that a government that takes in $3.3 Trillion in taxes can't devote even a dime for border safety. It's just "unrealistic."
Here's what's "realistic" Madame Secretary. You should negotiate a plea deal with the FBI for your treasonous disclosure of classified documents to America's enemies around the world. After you are done with your sentence, go climb in a hole somewhere and never come out. Bring your fat, stupid, womanizing husband with you.
What is realistic is your still expecting her to be indicted....
Wise up and do it quickly.
As for the OP, Ms. Clinton's idiot comment is exactly what she doesn't need to be saying. Now yes, you can secure phyical borders. We do it all the time with fences, gates etc.. We could physically build walls on both borders where our land touches the land of another nation. But that of course leaves in thousands of miles of coastline that is largely unpatrolled, tunnels, air entry etc...
She needs to stop thinking she needs to simplify things for her audience. We're much, much, much smarter than Trump's rabble of idiots. "Stopping all illegal immigration is unrealistic" would have sufficed because it is, in point and fact, the truth.
Nations other than the US are far behind on biometrics and just because someone presents themselves as Jose Luis Santana doesnt' mean he's not Mohammed Abdula. Everything could match down to his thumb print. We still do not know, for absolute positivity, the names of the 9/11 Hijackers. We have the names on the passports and traced back to reasonable origins but criminals will do whatever they can to stymie their enemy...
"Stopping all illegal immigration is unrealistic due to a number of factors. Chief amongst these is the lack of biometric screening in a person's place of origin." Should be her speech. "Therefore, I'm going to work through the UN to place top of the line fingerprinting and DNA collection capabilities at the fingertips of hospitals and embassies around the world. Not only will this assist local authorities in their crime prevention efforts, it will pay off dividends for us when we are making decisions on allowing persons to enter our nation."
Easy statement.
She runs the risk of lowering herself to the level of the average Trump supporter when she tries to make remedies too simple. Complex problems often require complex solutions and being smart enough to have a concept of the solution (if not the actual solution) in your brain is not a vice Ms. Clinton.
