Readers React: Donald Trump’s not just politically incorrect on immigration, he’s incorrect

To the editor: Donald Trump does not have a clue. There’s politically incorrect, and there’s just plain incorrect. (“More chest thumping and zero reason from Donald Trump on his border wall plan,” editorial, April 6)

He plays what I call the enemies game: I’m your friend because those people over there — the ones you don’t know like I do — are your enemies. Why? Well, they can’t help it; they’re just, well, you know.

When I was growing up in Birmingham, Ala., all kinds of people were playing this game, and some of them had microphones. The next thing you knew, the 16th Street Baptist Church got blown up, and four little girls got killed.

What happened next? Well, it was the fault of those outside agitators, terrible people — bona fide enemies.

To the editor: Is there not one writer at The Times who has bothered to point out that drug tunnels would make the proposed U.S.-Mexico border wall a joke?
