Saying that immigrants from countries that are mostly black are bad, but from lilly white Norway are good, is classic racism. Mexicans are rapists, scapegoating immigrants as criminals, declaring that their are good people among the Nazis that murdered someone, I mean what more do you want?

3rdnlng Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 5 minutes ago, Doc Brown said: Lindsay Graham confirmed he said it and Graham's been Trump's biggest cheerleader these last few months. I think Congress members have come to a place where they need they feel to educate the president because Graham apparently tried to educate Trump on immigration yesterday. Another example is at that televised meeting where Feinstein asked if he'd be open to a DACA stand alone bill and Trump basically said yes. That they'd do DACA first and then move on to comprehensive immigration reform. McCarthy (GOP majority leader) jumped in to explain to the president why that was a horrible deal for them. Trump just looked confused. When Trump does his homework on something he seems to make the right decisions (Paris Climate Accords, moving US Embassy to Jerusalem, slashing unnecessary regulations, etc.). When he doesn't you get dumb comments like he made yesterday that the media is ready to pounce on. As Trump explained later he was open to a DACA deal if it included the other provisions he wanted. He'd be crazy to give the dems a DACA deal without getting what he wants in a trade-off. In order to allow the dreamers permanent residency (not citizenship) he needs to get the following: End of chain immigration. End of lottery. Authorization and funding for a wall/fence and other border security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindsey Graham switches around so much I'm surprised his head is still attached. On a related note, in a sane society Lindsay Graham would have been dragged into the public square with a black hood over his head long ago. I mean seriously, you trust a guy who looks like this?

Paulus Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 39 minutes ago, Justice said: Trump is embarrassing. No doubt about that. I didn’t vote for him and I didn’t vote for Hillary. I don’t like either one. Having said that I can only assume being a Trump supporter is much like being a dog that has an owner that spreads peanut butter on his nutsack. I vote for entertainment, chaos, and excitement in my lifetime. Free the prisoners of CA! Increase taxes until peoples' eyes explode! War with whatever! That said, Trump 2020, Newsom 2024. If we don't see the apocalypse between those two, I might not see it in my lifetime. Boring!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt he said it, but even if he did it's not the four alarm media emergency that it's being made out to be. It's not the first, nor last time, a sitting president has used foul language to describe other nationalities. Which is why I say it's a distraction. There are a lot of stories that need distracting right now. Some of these people are literally fighting to keep their asses out of the clink at this very moment.

Tiberius Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Sad to see the Republican party descend into a party based on racial paranoia. We are a country based on republican ideals, a country of laws. The Republicans seems to think we are country based on skin color (shithole countries vs. Norwegian immigrants). Building a stupid and useless wall is the physical and ideological expression of this direction of the Republican party. Remember when Reagan demanded a wall get torn down? Capitalism works and the free flow of labor is a major component of capitalism, as Reagan understood. Now we have the Republicans following the scapegoating tactics of the Nazis. They ran a commercial this week scapegoating immigrants for crime and murder. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2018/01/20/in-campaign-ad-trump-says-democrats-complicit-in-crimes-by-immigrants/?tid=a_mcntx&utm_term=.780e5c39b286 Even other Republicans were throwing their arms up in disgust.

Buffalo_Gal Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 Up to 210 miles of the wall is completed. (Trump at presser just now) And, he mentioned the 9 court cases the administration had to go through to build the new wall. 500 miles by next year. I posted this in a different thread last month. Better here: 0 at 10:23 AM, Buffalo_Gal said: Trump is on Maria Bartiromo this morning (recorded interview) and said that there will be 500 miles of new wall by early next year. This is in addition to rebuilding the old wall. (me) There are 1,954 miles of border, 580 miles of existing wall (in 2016), adding 500 more miles would be 1080 miles. This 2019 article is very anti-Trump, but it lists the natural barriers and the areas that would be covered by troops instead of walls. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
