Omfg. OMFG.

Fox Guest Host Suggests Making Undocumented Immigrants Build U.S.-Mexico Wall
"Then when the wall’s finished, then they get amnesty."

A Fox News guest host suggested Monday that undocumented immigrants earn their right to stay in the U.S. by helping build the wall Donald Trump would like to see go up along the U.S.-Mexico border.

Jesse Watters, a guest co-host on "The Five," proposed the idea after the other hosts lambasted GOP candidate Trump's plan to "keep the [undocumented immigrants'] families together" when he deports them.

“Here’s what we do with them," Watters said. "Maybe we send them down to the border. Maybe the illegal alien families build the wall. Then when the wall’s finished, then they get amnesty. That’s called earned amnesty.”

He also suggested that NBC reporter Chuck Todd, who questioned Trump's planned immigration policy on Sunday's episode of "Meet the Press," house undocumented immigrants if he's so worried about their fates.

"I love how Chuck Todd’s out there sitting, whining about where are these deported illegal aliens gonna go," Watters said. "Where are they gonna go? Hey, Chuck, why don’t you put them up at your place? I mean he’s got room. He’s a compassionate guy. He’s probably got a big mansion."

Watter's support for Trump's immigration policy seemed to infuriate regular host Dana Perino.

"I would love to see you ... find some families, round them up and say, ‘Sorry, I know you’ve been here for several years. I know your children were born here in the Bronx. But you, you’re from Costa Rica. You’re all out of here,'" she said. "Because I don’t want to see any federal employee have to do what is so asinine that you’re coming up with."

OMG LOL at Costa Rica. Because SO MANY Costa Ricans try to sneak into the US LOL forever. 

I'm pretty sure there are more American retirees in Costa Rica than illegal Costa Ricans in the US.

What does he think Mexicans have been doing in this country for 100s of years if not toiling away under the hot son for the white man's purposes?

Drug smuggling, raping, and murdering. Obviously.

Hey, at least it's not as bad as Jan Mickelson's plan to enslave illegal immigrants. Seriously.

"Well, what's wrong with slavery?" --Jan Mickelson

I suspect that is how Trump imagined the construction of his wall too.

Absolutely disgusted with how this man talks about illegal immigrants as if they're property. Like barely even animals. I'm sick thinking of the possible number of politicians who agree with him.

We're seriously flirting with this exact retirement plan.

I had to restrain myself from punching a hole in the wall when I read that article and saw that bullshit.

I just don't get what is so threatening about undocumented immigrants. Admittedly, I live in a state that does not have a huge undocumented population, but still. The level of vitriol blows my mind.
