I will be waiting for another presidential foreign apology tour and another money give away for offending the Iran regime.

To legalize it he will need Congress. I don't see McConnell agreeing to this, unless there is some serious quid pro quo. And even then it's a longer-term path to citizenship. Not "welcome, here's your voter ID".

As to illegals and open immigration, should Biden even try using EOs to get this done it WILL be shot down in the courts. Unless the Democrats gain more House seats and win back the Senate in 2022 it is impossible.

NOTHING will be accomplished with respect to immigration reform over the next 4 years. Given COVID it's not even a high priority on most people's list.

Wait a minute..congress, when DACA come up for a vote in 2017 turned it down. Republican tried to force democrats to vote on the Dreamers and democrats turned it down four times.

Democrats got Trump out. +1 for Democrats. Democrats failed to take the Senate. -1 for the Democrats. Democrats lost many seats in the House, instead of taking 15 seats in the House. -1 for the Democrats. Democrats now in the hole. Democrats now eating their own for the lost seats. +100,000 for me.

You sound very much like McConnell. The thing is--Biden has good relationships with many in Congress and has worked across the aisle his entire career. He will get things done and not the way Trump did. Biden plays well with others and is a good decent guy.

The MAGA crowd can hang onto their anger, but most people want the hate and divisions to end.

Americans are tired of fighting. The last 4 years have been exhausting and ugly. Unity defeated Trump.

Kind of hypocritical of you isn’t it? I mean you spent the last four years battling with Trump even when he had some ideas that were good for the country. Sure he is a jerk but he did value manufacturing things in American, good solid blue color jobs in energy, and controlling our broader so we can stay safe and financially solvent. Now you want to claim that all the fighting was him ? That not reality. The left has shown their ugliness by calling anyone that disagrees with them some sort off name, pushing political correctness which is an assault to freedom of speech and pushing an agenda to oust a duly elected president with a Russia hoax. Sorry, I’m not ready for the ugliness to end. In fact, if the left continues to push political correctness and identity politics, I say let the war begin. I am beginning to think that will be the only way to save the US And bring civility back. The left is truly the enemy of America, democracy, free speech and freedom.

No Republican is going to pass the AOC/Sanders type agenda. Ain't gonna happen. Mitch will just block it and I am thankful for that.

There will be no unity. Just because a Democrat became President does not mean people are united. It just means the most vocal, annoying, violent half of the country will finally shut the hell up. The other half will still be against every single socialist agenda.
