Illegals in Government !

Yes, the government hasn't built the White House fence high enough to keep out the un-American criminals planted in the White House by DemocRATraffickers who've pledged (to the invisible powers in Satan's realm) to take away the religious, social, and economic freedoms of true American patriots!
