Dems Worried About One Immigrant: *Melania Trump* Issue of convenience. 8.9.2016 News <http://www.truthrevolt.org/news> Brian Lilley <http://www.truthrevolt.org/author/brian-lilley> 42 <http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/dems-worried-about-one-immigrant-melania-trump#disqus_thread>
Democrats are known for embracing illegal immigrants -- they even featured several of them at their convention last month. But now they are being critical of Donald Trump's wife Melania, insinuating that she entered the United States illegally, which in this particular instance is a bad thing. When Trump supporter and former House Speaker Newt Gingrich faced off against Democratic Congressman Xavier Becerra on *Fox News Sunday*, Becerra tried to claim that Melania Trump's status was unknown. "We don’t yet know how his wife gained her immigration status because he won’t reveal that as well," Becerra said in the middle of a rant about Trump and his taxes. The claim had Gingrich stopping the conversation to try and correct the record. "First of all, we know that his wife had a green card before she met him," Gingrich said. "How did she get the green card?" Becerra asked several . "She came here legally. She applied for a green card," Gingrich responded. "This is the only immigrant in America you’re worried about," Gingrich said. "I think it’s amazing that the one person you decide to pick on happens to be the wife of Donald Trump." When Becerra called Trump an immigrant basher, Gingrich noted that both his wife and mother were legal immigrants and that he has employed many legal immigrants. "He just likes his immigrants to be legal," Gingrich said. "I’m the son of immigrants," Becerra said. "But what does concern is when some guy goes out and bashes immigrants, not only undocumented but legal immigrants, and won’t explain how his wife gained her legal status, it’s important to note." Becerra's parents came to the United States from Mexico. The congressman was born in Sacramento, California. http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/dems-worried-about-one-immigrant-melania-trump -- -- Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
