Absolutely. Should have happened after German reunification.

I am for an America first policy, but not isolationist policies.
Our trade agreements should always be to our own benefit first and always.
Our immigration policies should always reflect what this country actually needs and what is in our own best interests. As it stands over half of immigrant households are receiving some form of welfare. How is this in the best interest of our nation?

Just tariff them so it's fair.

How does imposing tariffs which every other country on the planet does equal isolation?

America already has an America-first policy. The government always acts in its interests, especially in its economic and geopolitical interests.

If it wasn't in the interest of your leaders to bring in millions of immigrants/refugees, they wouldn't be doing it. The common man is not important, and can always be dragged along by his leaders, one way or another.


Stop acting like you matter. Go be a sheep(IE a resource) for your government, keep working, keep paying your taxes, and do as you are told.

I'm in...

Plus - allow intelligent profiling of criminals and terrorists

Plus - stop birth right citizenship and end the rest of the magnets for illegals.

Plus - stop all foreign aid to the countries that hate us and that promote terrorism, and use that money to build roads, bridges, and schools HERE.

Plus - honor our police and military again.

Why do you think the Romans killed him? Jesus was a political radical, and was practically telling people not to pay their taxes. He was a threat to the Roman state, or more specifically, he had made himself an "enemy of the state".

He also made himself an enemy of the Jews. Thus, all the major powers in the region, saw him as a threat, and wanted to get rid of him. So they killed him.



If Jesus was around, we would all be living a lot like the Amish. And immigration decisions would be made locally, instead of by a federal government. Which already imposes immigration rules that already aren't popularly supported, and even then, it refuses to enforce them.


Jesus would see the United States of America as the New Roman Empire. And he would not be happy with these delusional, immoral, statist liberals. Who have either ignored his teachings when beneficial, or distorted them into meaninglessness. All while trying to manipulate conservatives into supporting their corrupt agendas, by trying to make them feel guilty.

If there is a hell, its going to be full of people like yourself.

Our trade agreements at the very least should mirror those four trading partners. One need only look at the Tariffs and consumption taxes imposed on US goods exported to countries like China and Japan.
