I find it both ironic and amusing that many of our Hawaii politicians have stood in solidarity with the Democrats in their views on President Donald Trump’s wall.

I seem not to remember a time when caravans, boats and intruders just waltzed onto the shores of Oahu with the intention of staying permanently in paradise, with no legal standing. No one can swim here, and surely migrants do not come here en masse to attempt entry.

How convenient to have such courage of conviction, when they have no issue to deal with like the border states that do. In reality, it seems we the citizens of Hawaii need protection from our politicians.
