One of the reasons many of us were heartened when Donald Trump shunned the debate on Fox news Thursday night is because we feel that the networks game the system and push their own agendas rather than seek an honest dialogue between candidates.
This was especially clear when the debate invited a certain questioner to address the candidates. She was a young, well-spoken, attractive and successful Latina who was also an illegal alien who entered the U.S. with her mother back in 1994. She served in the U.S. army in 2006, but it is unclear if she is currently a citizen.
She is certainly not representative of the millions of illegals who have come to this country with low skills and little to offer the economy or society. It is clear that ordinary citizens want a controlled and limited immigration program, but big business and elites such as Google chairman Eric Schmidt and Rupert Murdoch, owner of Fox news want far more immigration in order to hire cheap labor and displace more expensive American citizens in the job market.
And so the young woman was trotted out to ask the candidates their position on immigration, legal and otherwise, and the context was clearly designed to suggest that immigration is good and that all incoming migrants will be a true asset to the country.
Donald Trump has said he opposes unlimited immigration, and it is likely that the young Latina was actually there to embarrass Trump and make him look hard hearted and out of touch with the situation. By not being there, he avoided that confrontation.

The planned ambush did not work out for Fox.
Ship her$#%&!@*back where she came from.
There should of been an AMERICAN as a guest , Fox was founded by a powerful advocate for open borders… very anti american.. I’ve boycotted these idiots and I’m so glad Trump didn’t walk into the planned attack they had prepared for him.
Why did the Donald miss the debate ? DUH !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fox news has turned from the king of the hill To the slime on the bottom of the cesspool . pretty dam pathetic
Gov jerry brown.. calif just passed a bill yesterday to allow illegals to vote , no history here not a citizen here but yet they vote ? he disgusts me !!!!!
If you actually do some research she did become a citizen and served in the Army. She immigrated 22 years ago…this article refers to her as Illegal just to p**s people off and get them to react.
She had no right be to be on the show. Period. Regardless of her position now, she is a criminal, never prosecuted for being here illegally. My response to her question would have been… “I refuse to answer on the grounds you are a criminal, not due a response from me.” Period. Next question, please!
She also benefits from our tax payer supported department of transportation, law enforcement, military, and possibly schools as well as medical aid etc… Not economically cool. Math means something.
She should have been arrested and deported on the spot.
