The MSM will try and ignore these reversals, basically killing any relevancy they have left. Alternative news will explode if this happens.

I don't believe America voted for lax immigration laws. It voted to make Covid and racial anxiety go away..
The racial anxiety was created by the left who sent BLM protestors into Trump rallies in 2016. They wanted to associate Trump with racism. The media kept insisting Trump wouldnt denounce white supremists even though he is on video record doing so dozens of times.

Because certainly, there wasn't such a thing as a hurricane prior to the "climate scientist" gracing us with his or her presence back in the 1970s (back when we were in danger of a new ice age). Before about 1970, the climate was completely stable and constant through all of geologic history. Nothing ever changed and there was perpetual climatic nirvana before man (primarily North American white males) began his systematic destruction of the universe.

BTW, which borders did Katrina survivors jump? Did they all caravan to France? Or was it Canada?

Now,...we all know the Top statement is True. But what about the Second? From the Left,..or Dem?

I always see these posts and it pulls in all the "No Illegals! Rah Rah Rah.."

And the other side always mocks them with Xenophobia, Scared of non-whites,..etc,...

But never a direct counter to the sentiment of being against "Illegal Immigrants". Is that their position?

Can someone on the left/ Dem side say outright the inverse of what the Right is clamoring about? That they Want Illegal Immigration?

Is it deemed not a problem? The stats don't add up? Or an outright Hoax? An Over reaction by the Right?

Sort of like how the Right says Police killing Blacks is not supported by the Stats as some National problem. And that BLM is an over reaction by the Left.

What's the defense?
You won't getting any rational response to your questions. The left are emotional. It makes them feel good about themselves, e.g. virtue signalling, to blindly support illegal immigration.

The left will never be able to rationalize why they support illegal immigration as a good thing. Because they can never rationalize why it would be a good thing to allow complete strangers to barge into their homes unannounced, to eat their food, sleep in their beds and demand the home owner must give them money to spend.

The USA is our home. Immigrants are people we know of, and have approved of as temporary visitors, they're invited guests. Allowing uninvited strangers, who you are unaware of their intentions, who demand social welfare services, and may commit crimes, theft, and disrupt order, are not a good thing.

Simply by their presence, illegals aliens are counted as a part of the population, so they effect our electoral college. Apportionment is based purely upon population count; not based upon legal status. So a sanctuary state can gain seats in the House of Reps, simply by flooding the state with illegal aliens, thereby disenfranchising states who obey immigration laws.

Do you blame the sun? Maybe you should.


Curious how the sunspot cycle tracks right along with global warming.

Democrats suck and so does Trump.

We needed a quality republican candidate not a narcist con man who wants to be a dictator who is neither a republican nor democrat but a power hungry me me guy in Trump which is why a weak dem like Biden won election.

We needed someone who is a good republican like john kasich or Marco Rubio who are good republicans with good policies who are about the people and not democratic socialists and act presidential and also not power hungry name calling self centered manipulating dictator hungry a**holes like Trump.

Then we would not have these illegal immigrant problems nor a con man trying to be dictator trying to undue democracy at every cost.

You wanted a smooth taking yes man, who worries about how the press characterizes him, so he goes along to get along, and does nothing to protect or support the common American citizen, but acts presidential while screwing the nation.

You can cite Trump's personality flaws, that's fair, because I mostly likely agree with you on those points. However, you should acknowledge the good things Trump has done for our nation,in spite of the fierce opposition he has received. Trump accomplished what past presidents failed to do, or refused to do.

Trump did come up with some good economic policies or so we thought. Who knows how sustainable they would have been given the deregulation he tried to do which could have resulted in another 2008-2009 situation. He was in bed with corrupt Russia. I do give him credit for being hard on China and some tax cuts. That's it.

But the bottom line is, Trump cares more about himself than anyone else. It is not just that is is not smooth talking., He is an ego centric dangerous and disrespects our constitution. He cares ore about his own power than what is best for the country.

Lots of republicans could have done with Trump could have done but better while respecting our democracy and constitution. Unlike Trump who is a narcist and a poor leader and its not just because he is a bad talker and childiush. He does name calling to not just enemies of United States, but on our own hereoes. He is a bad man period!! And I cannot respect Trump at all for that. Nevermind the fact he is trying to overturn the election which is a direct insult and dangerous threat to the freedom of our country.

Oh for God's sake get a grip will you? Trump has many personality flaws but his policies were spot on. Personality won't sink our country but bad policy will.

Most of your insults/claims about him are your mere biased opinion. I suggest you stop listening to fake news aka the media. Where are you getting that he cares more about himself than other Americans? His policies showed that he did care about what is best for our country.

As for name calling, most of the time he was just retaliating against those who called him names first. Our heroes? What kind of hero attacks the president no matter who he is?

There was some evidence that the election was tampered with and he had every right to investigate it. That is a part of our freedoms in this country to do so. The danger is not making sure that our elections are honest. You go on about democracy and yet you deny him his rights?

Actually, you guys need to get a grip. Instead of stamping your feet, crying & shaking your fists, grow up & accept defeat. We all knew trump sucked, the entire world knew it. We all knew he was never going to get re-elected. This was some bizarre research project that has now been defunded. Take your parting gifts & go home.

I take no issue with Trumps personality. He gave it his best. He’s achieved great things in his life. Good for him. He’s no saint. But I haven’t met a saint on earth yet. Jesus said that no man is good. “Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good--except God alone”. No truer words were ever spoken. The vitriol toward Trump was brutal and horrifying. I wish an independent will secure the presidency someday. I’m ok with Biden. Let’s see what he can accomplish. Of course there’s a shadow government. So any president can do so much anyway. Republicans just blocked the larger stimulus bill which would have supplied greater assistance to suffering Americans. I guess they could go work at McDonald’s and make $12 an hour. That will help their families.
