He is drawing a line in the sand. His stance against human beings and human rights is bringing hate mainstream. People like Jan Mickelson are echoing his sentiments and making it mainstream to want to abolish birthright citizenship. If you don't have your papers you could become property of the state and sold off as slave labor.

Trump is dangerous.
