Are you better off today, than you were 4 years ago when Trump was POTUS?

[Fogdog]

Growing up i always wanted to support 11 million illegals wilst sending a trillion bucks to defend the money laundering Ukrainian dictator.. get to work peasants; free loaders depend on you!!

So, now you care about limiting spending? Why didn't right wing Trumpists try to cut spending when they held political power?

Trump left a mess for Biden to clean up. Deferring maintenance costs more later on. Also, like it or not, this country needs immigrants to fill jobs already waiting for them. It can work if you guys will stop obstructing the only party that actually does something.

 

[Fogdog]

They want all the illegals here for political gain.

No they don't. Prove your claim.

What do you mean by that exactly mate?.....If I had a DUI in the past 10 years as an American, I couldn't even get in to Canada. Yet migrants/immigrants just crossing the Southern border are cool to cross and get free housing and healthcare?......and voting rights?

as an immigrant to the usa, you do not get voting rights , free housing or healthcare.


i think i would know ,

How the republicans views on immigrants have shifted over the years…..

Here is what his bill was trying to do (day one of his presidency).

DAY ONE IMMIGRATION BILL: U.S. Citizenship Act of 2021

Well that worked well

Yeah it is a real shame that Biden and the Democrats were unable to deal with every single issue America would benefit from improving, but since they were busy cleaning up another Republican economic meltdown, and attempted insurrection on day one, and slow rolling appointments, immigration once again got put on the back burner.

Our immigration system would have been far better off if they could have done everything, but the obstructionist GQP won't let it happen.

Repubclains don't want to fix our immigration system, they want to run on scaring their followers with it too much for that.

Another one who uses “illegals” without irony.

I stand corrected. SOME documented Immigrants.

Does someone need some attention?? I'm guessing you have no idea how funding Ukraine' defense actually works? Makes it kinda hard to have a conversation about it to be honest. To insinuate that unauthorized migrants are "free loaders" doesn't make any sense, they are doing the hard labor... never mind - this goes nowhere.

Honestly, I love the work ethic of Mexican migrants . I've had 2 roofs replaced in 5 years due to hail damage. I have a 12/12 pitch roof, and a lot of different angles, and these guys showed up at 6 am pulling shingles and had it all pulled and new tarp laid the first day in 102 degree heat. 2nd day, it was done. Not a nail to be found around the house, garden, etc. Nobody spoke English, but I know some Spanish. Their van was leaking coolant like a MF.... I told the lead crew member to give me his keys, and I'd have a look in my shop. Me and my dad found 2 sections of copper tubing that were rotted out and leaking badly. We cut out the bad sections, and fixed them up so they could get back to OKC before dark. Fed them some pizza, homemade salsa (prob not hot enough for them), loaded the shingles to the roof with my front end loader so they didn't have to carry them up a pack at a time on a ladder..... I could lift 15 packs per load. Some weed for them at the end of shift, and I felt like I made the best friends of my life. ... sometimes a language barrier is a great thing. It'd be harder than woodpecker lips to find harder working guys.

... but! We must keep in mind too that the Southern boarder is not just Mexicans crossing illegally.. it's Afghans, India (no threat there,.. thier food is awesome), Iranians, Pakistanis (again great food)... I just think every crosser should be fully vetted and done the right way..... just like any other Country in the World.

I'd wager that there are other countries with immigration problems

Man, I don’t know…. I’ve been to a lot of places on Earth, and Mexico seems to be the largest gate to any other that is not in check… try getting into Canada under the radar.

 

[CANON_Grow]

I'm reminded of some tips sunni gave for recognizing trolls: "brand new member 2 posts in politics. usually probably not someone you wanna interact with."

Thing is, some trolls know that too, so what they do is post a few nonsense short posts in the grow forums before they come here with their nonsense and need for attention. hint hint...

My bad. Let sleeping dogs lie <- something I need to work on.

Don’t accept “illegals” as a legitimate word. It’s loaded.

Understandable… but I asked the Contractor if they were legals, and he said negative. However, I will correct it.

“Legals” has the same underlying problem.
