Which Americans? Many Americans are liberals. And some Americans just don't care.

I actually agree with that...that's because there are few real true conservatives left in the party.


The entire republican party has been infiltrated and hijacked by left-wingers like Bill Kristol, Bret Stephens, Max Boot and so on...

Neither party really had the best interests of ALL Americans. The two parties have the interests of their constituents. And in some cases, not even to that degree. The Republican Party has a habit of looking out for its constituents, which are mainly White conservatives. The Democratic Party looks out for women, White liberals (including the LGBTQ community) and most minorities, some more than others. Of course, being Black, I'm learning that both political parties put Black people last. For this reason, when I hear people complain about "those liberals", my thoughts are "not my problem, I have my own issues to deal with, that neither conservatives or liberals can solve".

Tell me who is making money off illegals. Tell me who employs illegals. Tell me if the USA is a free enterprise economy or a very controlled one. Which do you want?

Do you think the homebuilder who got so rich off the labor of illegals and the ignorance of consumers he was able to give millions and millions to the Republican Party?

My feeling is that both major parties are concerned only with their own political fortunes. The "best interests" of the country are simply are a cardboard backdrop against which the really important work of politicking is played.

The Democrats are only interested in power. They now realize the only way they can complete their power grab and institute socialism is by importing millions of illegals, then legalizing them and depending on their children to mindlessly vote for their agenda.

This stuff is not easy, and it’s not fast.

How is advocating for amnesty for illegal aliens and opposing a wall to stop more illegals from getting into our country a concern for the common good? Please don't come back with claims that have already been debunked over and over either.

Too me its even worse that that. That dumbass Pelosi gets up on a podium and lectures the American people that border walls are "immoral" Who does this woman thinks she is, to tell us that border walls are immoral, I mean she's got a great big ol set of man balls on her to say something like.

Yeah, Nance, get rid of your doors and walls and security and come and talk to me about border walls being immoral.

Stupid idiot.
