13. It was a 4k tax, whoop de do

It wasn't a "fine". If you exceed the duty free allowance, you owe tax on the goods over that.

Consisten with your spewing this birther type crap which is pretty much a rehash of stuff from a far-right xenophobic blog, you seem to think a wealthy woman traveling without her husband is somehow unusual. They had just finished a campaign and she took a shopping trip.

In the first place, that's not very unusual for a woman to travel without her husband. In the second place, there is no source for the idea she was "alone" in the first place. She was traveling without her husband, which women are allowed to do, so the stories refer to her traveling "solo" - ie without him. However, if she was traveling with friends or social acquaintances, which is highly likely, the odds are they don't want their name in the papers, and it's not as if the only sources for the story - her and him - would name the friends on the trip. As far as customs is concerned, they don't know whether any group of unrelated people are traveling together or not.

Your whole point - that she has lived in the country for decades and speaks no English is bog stupid. Likewise the "forged passport" which hasn't been possible for quite some time. When you enter the country, the passport data is scanned and checked against the database. If you go to secondary inspection at customs, it's not as if that is some "distraction" from the rest of your documents - it gets you extra scrutiny.

Again, this is racist xenophobic bullshit. which is why your other thread was locked. She speaks English with a heavy accent as do a lot of Americans, and you can watch and hear her speaking English in the video I posted above.

All those Floridians - they tailed her in Paris?

Yes, if wealthy donors were on the trip - either in Paris and had different travel itineraries back - or on the flight booked separately - they wouldn't have a way into the story, and they wouldn't want one. You don't seem to understand how news is written.

There's a reason your thread was locked and relegated to the loony bin.

So, what is suspicious about her traveling without her husband?

I'm going to guess you don't do a whole lot of travel.

None. Zero. Zilch.

You are the kind of person who thinks Mexicans should be picked up off the streets and have their papers checked.

>Do you have proof she attended such a ceremony?

Again, this is birther logic. "Why is there no plaque outside of the hospital where Obama was born?"

You are the one making the ridiculous accusation that she is not a citizen. You don't seem to understand where the evidentiary burden lies.

I haven't seen Donald Trump's birth certificate, so I'm going to say he's not a citizen. What's your proof that he is.

This is stupid rightwing bullshit that primarily comes from the anti-immigrant site Vdare. The first time you posted this shit, you used a known white supremacist as the source for your idiotic crap.

The burden of proof is on the accuser. Immigrants do not produce their papers on demand for idiots.

People get married all of the time without speaking English.

My mother was a war bride and spoke not a word when she got married and came to the US.

All of their children speak English, but she has no idea what they are saying, right? Get real.

This line of crap was offensive when Trump started it, and it's not getting any better.

yeah, because there are so many other people interested by your nonsense.

Pointing out a racist, nativist attack on the wife of a politician is not "campaigning" for that politician.

Again, there is a reason the other thread was locked.
