I think it remains to be seem if 'reducing illegal immigration' will hurt folks. As the farmer video shows, reducing migrant workforce will in fact hurt everyone. His promise to "work on the economy" means increasing gains to the rich. That will indeed hurt poor people. Trickle down economics doesn't work and someone has to pay for those gains. It's not the rich. He promised "some crazy shit" that "won't happen." Why did you vote for him then? I'm hearing an awful lot of "but that won't happen," "he can't do that," "never in a million years." Why did you vote for someone promising to do things you are so sure he won't do? |
These people are idiots. They won't learn a GD thing. |
You actually believed his lies. You and Trump are both idiots. We can only hope he continues to be incompetent and can't manifest any of his promises. Just like the first time. |
We need a bingo card every time Trump says, "Who knew [insert policy he promised to solve] would be so hard?" So far, it's been healthcare and bringing down grocery prices. I fully expect the same from tariffs, mass deportations without negative consequences, solving housing crisis, and cutting government spending (without touching the military, Medicare, Medicaid or Social Security). |
Well said! |
Again, it's incredible how foolish you are. When there is chaos, no one distinguishes good people from bad people. If demonizing the 1% -er who was killed makes you sleep better at night, have at it. This man was working within an existing system that promotes that level of greed and callousness. Many comfortable people including doctors, lawyers, bankers, lobbyist, consultants etc are working in the same system. If you think people who are hurting for one reason will continue to make distinctions between this man and them, you are naive. If they were capable of distinction, we will not have Trump as president, and we would not have had what happened on Jan 6. We need to come together to fix this country. You might be shocked at how your fellow American is reacting to the issues facing this country, but you cannot ignore that there are real issues. Wishing for Trump to make things much worse just so you can gloat is childish and unproductive especially because you and I will definitely not be immune from the consequences. |
Yes, and I want the democrats to stay out of it completely. I don’t want to hear a word from them unless it threatens our very existence. Let them have at it. Let them try to do all those things. I want to see how they twist themselves into pretzels while they control every branch of government, and there is nobody else to blame, if it doesn’t go well. |
It’s going to suck re-living the 30s. Trumpers are so ignorant and so spoiled, they have no idea how awful unregulated greed is.
Hey trumpers, Google polio and the FDIC. |
They won’t be able to deport many people. Just a total lack of resources and manpower. Plus, the country of origin has to accept them back. Perhaps some criminals may get deported, and then there will be some tragic stories of people caught up in this. But mostly other countries will say; we don’t want these people back, or; they are not ours anymore! Europe has been dealing with this for a decade with no solution in sight. Regardless from the fiasco that immigration has always been, democrats need to wake up and realize that the majority of their constituents also want to crack down hard on crime. I would love to see arrests and sentences for every carjacking, etc. If El Salvador could make a complete turn around, so could we! (In less than a decade, El Salvador has gone from the murder capital of the world to having one of the lowest homicide rates in the Western Hemisphere.) |
The border was always wide open! That includes all past Republican presidents. Legal immigration was always unnaturally difficult in the past 40 years, including all past Democratic presidents. In short, immigration is a mess, and has been, for a very long time! |
I think a lot of people realize the house will have to be burned down to roast the pig. |
Trump did have one trick up his sleeve to slow down immigration - he made the country so uninviting that fewer migrants made the attempt to come here. |
How many is a lot? |
Don’t throw out the baby with the dirty bath water. |
