Democratic candidate Julian Castro, who along with 13 other Democrats is polling at 0 percent according to the most recent Quinnipiac University poll, took part in a town hall on Fox News Thursday afternoon. Well, he sort of took part — when asked about releasing illegal aliens who’d committed crimes, he took a bit of a detour.

Illegal aliens steal people’s Social Security numbers and identities? No way!
Master deflector

Is this Jimmy Fallon because I would understand this answer to be a joke.

According to J Castro identity theft is not a serious crime. Good to know!

Crime happens. But we damned sure don’t have to import it!

Illegals don’t just happen. Illegals are primarily drawn by Leftist Democrat policies and agendas. Illegals by default are criminals. The devastation they exact on our people and our society is at the hands of Leftist Democrats.

Why can't any Democrat say "illegal immigrant"? They try so hard not to say that, soon the are going to start calling them "undocumented Americans" or something like that.

Weasel words. The hallmark of the progressive left.

Wow he went to the Obama school of talk and say nothing
— BillsfanDan (@bflbilsfan1) June 13, 2019
And we're still waiting to hear him answer the question
— Dan Alden ⭐⭐⭐ (@DanAlden73) June 13, 2019
He's refusing to answer any question. He's pretty much ignoring the question and going to his left wing talking points.
He wouldn't even make a good vp running mate choice. He's the boring vanilla of the left wing.

It’s amazing to watch these people go into these rabbit hole tangents that don’t answer the question at all but only further their political ideology.
