Oh, Tom Cotton couldn't recall.

Just like how many times they said "I cannot recall" during the Iran Contra testimony.

LMAO!

If he can't recall what was said in a meeting just a few days ago then either he is a.) mentally incompetent to hold political office or b.) he is covering for a racist. Sorry, but there is no c.)


Tom Cotton should just step down from office now. What a disgrace.


Why should he ? This is the golden age of xenophobia disguised as patriotism


He should not only recall, he should restate the point. Because trump is right. Many of these places are s-holes. Why else would everyone want to leave?


For the exact same reason your ancestors left whatever shithole your family came from to be here.

Immigrants from so many impoverished and deadly places made America rich in all ways. They built America's great cities and industries, factories and schools. They made the American dream come alive in the world. As Margaret Thatcher observed from across the ocean, "Europe was created by history. America was created by philosophy."

LMAO. Seems like we’d have to offer tax incentives to get the Norwegians to come here.

The PM said that? Really. Interesting. Thank you.

Wow. Those are hardworking Americans you are disparaging. It’s not their fault the immigrants are taking all their jobs. What a liberal elitist you are.

I'm not sure why you posted this but I'll infer that you want everyone to believe Nigeria is in fact a terrible country to live in. I'm not sure why present day people are getting so much satisfaction out of "America is the best" status. What exactly have you done that contributed to the fact that the US is a wealthy and powerful country? Probably not much. And don't say your ancestors because if they're accused of harming POC, your excuse is that it was a long time ago don't blame me. What exactly is there to be proud of other than the circumstance of your birth?

We’re proud of America because America is the best. Our contribution is that we are part of the best country in the world—it could be more, but it doesn’t need to be. What’s your excuse for hating America?


That's what I figured, you haven't done much.

That wouldn't be very hard. They pay around 50% in taxes which is insane.

And yet the lower taxes isn’t enticing them so far. How low do we need to go?

If it's so great, go move there. Enjoy the shitty weather, wretched women, gun control, crazy taxes, etc. It's a liberals wet dream.

WTF. I have an idea: stop the people from running drugs South of the Border. Don’t worry about the rest: Trump’s got this. Have a nice day.

Not really. It all depends what you get in return. Free university tuition and universal healthcare not tied to an employer is something many Americans would like.
