Ana Navarro on The View

The Friday, July 11, episode of The View kicked off with the women discussing “Alligator Alcatraz,” an immigration detention center in Florida. As Joy Behar pointed out, “Families of detainees say the conditions are horrible and dangerous, but some MAGA faithful are treating it like some kind of tourist attraction.”

The conversation then opened up to immigration policies in the United States, and Ana Navarro had a lot to say. After pointing out that there were reports of undocumented immigrants working for Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago when he was first running for president, she insisted what’s going on at “Alligator Alcatraz” is “horrible.”

“If you are out there in the Everglades, driving out there and getting out of your car to take a picture [of ‘Alligator Alcatraz’] as if it was the Eiffel Tower, you are a racist and you are a horrible human being,” Navarro said. She also pointed out that certain people being kept at the detention center are “legal permanent residents,” adding, “This is not just about undocumented immigrants.”

Navarro continued, “When you are taking away temporary protective status, when you are putting legal permanent residents in detention and deporting them, when you are threatening U.S. citizens that you don’t like that you’re going to take their citizenship, naturalized ones, when you are talking about birthright citizenship and taking that away … this is not about going after criminals and gang members. This is about making America white again.”

The audience erupted in applause at that point, and people on social media applauded Navarro for her statement.

To further prove her point, Navarro said, “Think about this. At the same time that they are rounding up Latino immigrants and Brown immigrants, they are opening the doors for White South Africanos fleeing from a non-existent genocide? This is about one, deporting people, and two, scaring people out of this country.”

She went on to continue to slam Trump: “That is why he has sent people to a gulag in El Salvador, to disappear them. A gulag where people only leave if they’re dead. That is why he is using military personnel in L.A. to go into parks where children are playing to terrorize them.”

When Behar questioned why Republican lawmakers are letting Trump get away with this, Navarro insisted, “They’re a bunch of cowards!” She specifically referenced Marco Rubio. “He built his career on railing against the dictatorships in Cuba, in Venezuela, in Nicaragua, and he is standing in complicit silence as this administration returns people to those cruel dictatorships.”

      It's delusional to remove people who are here in the our country illegally???

      How so?

      Do you think El Salvador, would roll out the red carpet, and give you free everything if you just showed up there illegally? Venezuela? Haiti? Yemen? Uganda? Afghanistan?

      No. You would probably be beaten, raped and murdered. Definitely incarcerated.

      But we're going to shell out multi billions???????

      Why?

      Do you have a good answer?

      Besides, I hate Trump?

        I'm actually referring to what the president said during his Texas visit when he told someone asking about the non preparedness of the warnings during that disaster said that was an evil question implying that person shouldn't have ever asked it. How dare he/she ask him, the president, such an EVIL question! (sarcasm)

        I agree with you. Every other country in the world has borders but they want the U.S. to be borderless.

        One detail they always choose to ignore is that it is ILLEGAL immigrates that are being removed.

        They are in fact all criminals because they broke our laws when they invaded the country.

        There’s no issue for those who follow the law and enter LEGALLY!!!

      People capable of living in reality, and not in a delusional bubble of TDS see who and where the delusional rantings and hate speech come from!!

      The violence, hate speech, and vile behavior is coming from the Left and the Dems who seem incapable of getting over the fact that they lost and had their behinds handed to them.

      Apparently this is what loosing looks like in the Dems Leftist world. Soooo sad and truly pathetic. But the country and the entire world sees them for what they are.

    Why does she choose to live in a majority white nation, and not a black or brown majority nation?

    And why do so many recent immigrants want to change USA?

    Just leave....go back to where you come from. We don't want or need you to "make us better" to suit your image. If you are so smart, why not make the country you left better and stay there.

      I keep skiing myself, why millions have invaded our country, illegally, if this country is so terrible??

      Right, because it’s NOT terrible. It’s certain people like the vile women on the View that make it terrible!!

    Hopefully, enough Democrats will be elected in Congress during the midterms to rebut everything wrong that is said and done by the current president and his fellow Republicans!

      That's not true, at least not that anything ant-Trump gets deleted because I have made some anti-Trump comments and none have been deleted. I suppose it all depends on how someone phrases the comments.

    Do people actually watch this garbage? It reminds me of my grandma and her friends sitting around gossiping and getting EVERYTHING WRONG. Could you imagine being married to one of these people? OMG - I’m pretty sure if any of these people have husbands these guys are just frayed down to the bone. OK honey, whatever you say honey. Yes, honey I did it. Yes honey you’re right. Yes honey, I’m wrong. Yes honey, I’m stupid. They probably give hand signals to servers at restaurants like “Help - please help me.” Like walking zombies wondering what happened to their lives. Better them than me I guess.
