I love when regressives pick and choose what fact checking is acceptable. Regressives: "well what Trump said was asking if anybody had considered injecting bleach! He didn't literally tell people to inject bleach! You have to only go by the exact words he said and not under the logical and obvious interpretation. Checkmate liberals, facts and logic literally destroy your arguments!" Also regressives: "Well when Trump said 15, 16 million immigrants are poisoning the blood of our country what he really meant is just the bad ones. He actually didn't say that, but I know that's what he really meant. Also when he said there were very fine people on both sides of the Charlottesville rally that had actual Nazis on one side what he really meant was very fine people except for the ones explicitly there to support the GOP chanting "Jews will not replace us. You can't possibly take him at his literal words when they make him look bad!" |
It's proof of legal residence and citizenship. Illegals won't have that star. Can't deport anyone who has one |
So well written. Republicans are such lying old coots. |
It’s adorable that you think the GOP would have any compunction whatsoever about getting rid of whoever the hell they wanted to get rid of. They also said Roe was settled law, remember? |
So who is in an "illegal gang"? Pretty easy to start accusing people of being gang members once the rhetoric gets ramped up and the guardrails are removed. |
lol sure. In Texas right now they will arrest you if you speak Spanish and “seem” illegal. If you speak Spanish you must be illegal. If there are 10 million illegals you will most likely arrest and detain 18-25 millions. Many times one person in a 5 person family will be illegal. What happens to their property? Surely it must be confiscated. How do you get it? Jump through a bunch of red tape created by a bureaucracy designed to take all your money and property. I would not trust any conservative or republican doing the right thing or being honest. Just listen to what they say. |
It’s really not a concern. President Trump not only records his supporters, but his opponents as well. So you might as well support him so you don’t get placed on The List. Otherwise if you get picked up it’s on you. |
I can’t tell if you’re doing deep sarcasm or if you’re actually just unaware that this is how authoritarian regimes work and you’re excited to vote for it. |
We aren’t seeing a “rapid demographic change” except in the fevered minds of white nationalists. We actually saw higher numbers of immigrants coming to this country in the early 20th century when the total US population was 1/4 - 1/5 the size it is now. That’s when so many of the grandparents of the people complaining about immigrated— the only restrictions on European immigrants were you couldn’t have infectious disease (or be a prostitute). And what did we get from that rapid demographic change? The greatest period of American prosperity ever. |
m The issue for the Trumpers is that these immigrants are not white European. I am pretty sure immigration would not be of concern if these new arrivals were Scandinavian. For many, it is just about racism, fear of the unknown, and feeling left out when people are not speaking English. |
+1 As evidenced by their support of Trump’s “sh**hole countries” and Muslim bans. |

Even the super conservative SCOTUS is unlikely to allow Trump to use the Alien Enemies Act as he has proposed it. It would likely take an official declaration of war by congress for the president to have the constitutional authority use this law in the manner he wants to use it. |
I have zero trust in the Supreme Court. Trumo can easily call any sketchy decision he makes an “official act” and get away with it. |
Cute. You think anyone is going to check your driver’s license? No, my friend, if you don’t look right or sound right or you dissed the wrong person, your butt will be deported. And do you imagine you can appeal to if a mistake has been made? Trump voters want to burn it down. So there will be no judicial system to protect you. |
