Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump today accused Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of being a ‘copycat.’

Israel has begun building a fence along part of the country’s eastern border with Jordan as Syrian civil war refugees and other migrants flee their countries. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday: “We see today what happens when countries lose control of their borders. Earlier in the day, Netanyahu bemoaned the “human tragedy” of Syria’s civil war and said Israel has helped out victims. However, he said Israel isn’t large enough to do much more.

Trump told reporters that “The Israeli prime minister needs to be more original in his pronouncements and policies instead of copying my ideas.”

Trump had proposed building a ‘great wall’ along the entire U.S.-Mexico border as a way to stop illegal immigration. He fell short of asking Netanyahu to pay him royalty fees for stealing his idea.

SARAH PALIN’S ‘SPEAK AMERICAN’ COMMENT BACKFIRES

WASILLA, Alaska (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – Speaking to CNN on Sunday, former Alaska Governor and Vice Presidential Candidate Sarah Palin said that Spanish-speaking people who are in America must, “be legal, or they’re out of here,” and that while here, “they should speak American.”

Palin, who failed in her Spanish and French language classes in high school, was reacting to Donald Trump’s criticism of fellow Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush who is bilingual in English and Spanish.

The Adobo Chronicles® caught up with Palin as she was preparing to go on a long Labor Day weekend vacation to Cancun, Mexico, and we asked her what kind of “American” speech she was referring to. Was it the southern accent, New York accent, Alaskan accent or Minnesota accent?

In response, Palin said, “Oh, I betcha, that’s one of those media ‘gotcha questions’ that I’m not gonna answer.”

Did she just say Minnesota?

UPDATING: DONALD TRUMP TURNS TO MATH TO SOLVE ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles® ) – Until recently, Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric has not been matched with concrete proposals on how exactly he plans to deport all of the estimated 11 Million undocumented immigrants now living in the U.S.

But it turns out the Relublican presidential candidate and real estate mogul is also a math wizard and has turned to his number skills to put forward a brilliant plan to solve both illegal immigration and the worsening Syrian refugee crisis.

Syria’s civil war is the worst humanitarian disaster of our time. According to mercycorps.org, the number of displaced Syrians — mostly civilians — has reached more than 11 million people thus far.

Bingo!

Trump is now proposing that the United States, following the example of many European countries — open its borders to Syrian refugees. However, he says that for every Syrian refugee accepted into the U.S. , one undocumented immigrant now living in the U.S. should be deported.

So there you go, one undocumented immigrant for one Syrian refugee. That’s 11 Million and counting.

Illegal immigration solved. Syrian refugee crisis solved. Trump for president!
