If you are voting for Trump based on immigration- why?

Anonymous
No, I'm not. We have an issue at the border but he has proven that he is incapable of sound problem-solving on the issue, and that he is more interested in keeping the border as a problem, since that works for him politically.

So, no. Absolutely not.

The only MAGA person I know (not Republican, because MAGA is MAGA) lives in San Diego County. She has been anti-Mexican for many years. I don't think it matters to her if they are here legally or not. She does not like them and thus would like to see them removed.

"NEW YORK (AP) — The co-founder of a fundraising group linked to Steve Bannon that promised to help Donald Trump construct a wall along the southern U.S. border was sentenced to four years and three months in prison on Wednesday for stealing hundreds of thousands of dollars from donors."

I'm a teacher. Do you honestly think a class in which 75% or more of the students are learning English as a second language doesn't impact the instructional pace? That's not a racist comment. It's a big challenge for the teachers and students.


Can you provide some data showing that 75% of the kids in Sterling are in ESL?

My wife is a school nurse.

They need to give combat pay for title one schools but there is no salary adjustment so everyone runs away from These schools .

But the liberal elites never show up. Or help. They just yell RACIST!


Can you let us know how Trump made your wife’s job easier? Did her salary decrease under Biden? Also, which GOP elites showed up to the school? Just curious.

I grew up in CA and they have been complaining about immigration for 45 years, even through GOP leadership. It’s a refrain there to be sure.

October 31 2020:
"Before (Trump) took office, there were 654 miles (just over 1,000km) of barrier along the southern border - made up of 354 miles of barricades to stop pedestrians and 300 miles of anti-vehicle fencing. Now, according to US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) ...in areas where no barricades existed before, they have built 15 miles of new, primary barrier or "border wall system", as it is called by CBP.

What Mr Trump has actually built is far from what he promised at the start of his 2016 election campaign, when he pledged to build a concrete wall along the border's entire 2,000-mile length."

He has the concepts of a plan for healthcare! Maybe in 2050 his ghost will actually come out with a plan!



You've earned your "deplorable" nickname, MAGAs.



“Didn’t do anything”? Here’s only some of what he did to address the border:

Migrant Protection Protocols (MPP):
Sending migrants back to wait in Mexico until their hearings.
Third-Party Asylum Rule: self-explanatory

And when Joe Biden took office in 2021, he proceeded to immediately rescind all of Trump’s border policies that were working. So we are all aware that Trump took border security seriously, and Biden ended everything that Trump did to secure the border.

We’re also aware that under the Biden/Harris administration, the U.S. experienced record levels of illegal immigration, creating a full-blown crisis at the border - which Democrats denied was happening and refused to address until 3 1/2 years had passed and Biden found himself in an election year. It was only then that he decided to create an EO of his own - something he could have done at the start of his administration but didn’t.

So you can stop your gaslighting and lying. The only candidate who takes illegal immigration seriously is Trump. Harris will just be more of Biden’s utter mismanagement and probably amnesty for those already in the country illegally. No thanks.

Umm what voting demographic do you think a majority of teachers are. Most of us have a lot more empathy than your wife and the PP

"MONTEZUMA PASS, Ariz. Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump came here on Thursday to heap praise on the structure standing to his right — “the Rolls-Royce of walls,” he called it.... Joining him, Border Patrol union leader Paul A. Perez called the standing fence “Trump wall” ...This section of 20-foot steel slats was actually built in 2008, at the tail end of the George W. Bush administration."

DING

Notice all the hand-wringing about "immigrants are flooding our schools and making our kids dumb" bullshit never gets into detail. It's all noise with no evidence.


No one said that.
School A has an influx of migrant kids and has failing test scores as a result since these kids can't read or write in any language.
School B has middle to high income households with high test scores.
School board is planning to redraw boundaries so that kids from School B move to school A to raise the average test scores and cover up the fact that the original kids from School A still can't read or write in any language.


Exactly this. And apparently, caring about good test scores (and behavior) is “RACIST!!!”

I didn't say in Sterling. I'm giving an example. I live in Atlanta.
