When the Salt Lake City Tribune calls out a Republican, you can be assured the Republican is a POS.

Reports indicate that refugees at the U.S. southern border could reach the 1 million mark this year, and the Trump administration has no plan to address this crisis. No plan at all.

Other than to tell Mexico to solve the problem by intercepting these fearful, exhausted and impoverished people, and to close the door to any asylum seekers without respect to American law, this president has done nothing but rant about his own failures both privately and publicly.

...As the president stimulates and endorses internal and international unrest, he is simultaneously destabilizing his own government by side-stepping a Congress meant to provide checks and balances to his reign. Many of the senior posts within his administration remain unfilled, or when his act requires another contestant to administer his whims and take the blame for more failures, he appoints an “acting” chair, absolved of any public oversight via Senate confirmation.

These indicators of a failed and noxious presidency are there for all to see in the numerous, careening accounts that reach our subsequent awareness and conversations.

That's a great opinion piece. I agree 110%. I could have written it myself.

I don't think the Dems should let Trump get away with blaming them for his failures. He's the President; it's his job to lead. He just can't get it done; he can't work with people. And I never thought I'd say it, but after watching the immigration situation explode under him, this situation could be heading towards some type of rupture.

Obama faced a very similar situation in 2014, but he worked with Congress and other nations to get a handle on it, stemming the tide & decreasing the numbers. Trump just seems to be making things worse, and the numbers keep going up. And now he wants to welcome illegals, busing them deeper into the country with taxpayer's funds?

The one question that remains is how long it will take American to recover from the rot and decay that is Trump.

How A Trump Proposal Could Reduce 'Happy' Disabled People

A new policy proposal by the Trump administration calls for the surveillance of disabled people’s social media profiles to determine the necessity of their disability benefits. The proposal, which reportedly aims to cut down on the number of fraudulent disability claims would, monitor the profiles of disabled people and flag content that shows them doing physical activities. When it comes down to it, the policy dictates that disabled people shouldn’t be seen living their lives for fear of losing vital financial aid and, possibly, medical care.


Quick, she looks too happy. Cut her benefits!

Aside from the cruelty it takes to cut necessary funds from a disabled person’s life because of a moment of activity, it seems willfully ignorant. Many in society already see disabled as “fakers” trying to take money from unsuspecting people, and this policy would only raise those tensions among the public. Disabled people are people, and as such, lead complex lives with ups and downs like the rest of the population. Relying upon a reductive narrative of disability is dangerous and will cost lives. Due to this, the administration should look inward and learn how to #BeBest.

Willful ignorance is synonymous with Trump, his team and his followers. So, there is certainly no surprise there.

Don't forget the corruption. Trump is President because he is making $$$ from his businesses like that DC hotel.

Lead. Work with Congress. Forge a deal.

He had a wall-for-DACA deal, but he threw it away. That would have been a great start to help stem the illegal crossing tide, and also do right by the DACA kids. And it perhaps more importantly would have been a great start to productive policy & legislative sessions with his new Congress. Instead he not only threw his best deal away, but he shutdown the government dashing any hopes of future Congressional assistance.

With Trump in office, there is no hope of substantive immigration reform, which is something the country really needs. If the Dems are smart, they'll run on immigration reform and let Trump's record on the matter stand for itself.

The only acceptable thing for Trump to do is whatever congressional Democrats tell him to do. Even that won't make the ****ers happy but at least it might shut them up for an hour or two.

They have shot down every single thing Trump has tried and then they blame him for not doing anything. Hell, two weeks ago their main reason for shooting everything down is that there was no "crisis" and that it was all made up. This week it's a huge crisis and it's all Trump's fault. These Democrats are the most dishonest, deceitful, scumbags I've ever run across.

When both parties nominate bum candidates instead of decent candidates like both had the opportunity to do so. It didn't matter who won, this country was guaranteed to be hip deep in problems. It can only get worse until one or the other of our two major parties wake up and come up with candidates good for America. Not just their political party's base. But the country as a whole, all of us.

That's because the Democrats won't give him the money to deal with the problem.

How long will it take to review the cases of the 100,000+ taken in custody just last month?

Why won't Congress do something about this?

Oh...wait...it's all Trump's fault, right?

Even more deceitful and dishonest than the Republicans who controlled Congress for two years and did none of the things they say the Democrats should do now? Wow, that's some big deceit and dishonesty.

Speaking of crises, why is the illegal immigration issue a crisis now but was ignored when the Republicans held the purse strings? Here's a suggestion- the Republicans are incapable of governing. They can't actually do anything, all they have in their quiver is bleating about how the Democrats won't do it for them.

Yes, it is.

You cannot "make a deal" with someone who doesn't want to negotiate.

Dealing with Democrats is like dealing with the Norks. No deal is better than a bad deal. Republicans capitulate, Trump does not.

And that's Trump's fault how? He's not the one shouting "come on up"; that's your brethren on the left trolling for new voters. Hint: calling something a "commentary" means "we can prove any of this"? You knew that, right?

Yet another fascist inspired abomination from the Trump administration.

On July 14, 1933, the German government instituted the “Law for the Prevention of Progeny with Hereditary Diseases.” This law called for the sterilization of all persons who suffered from diseases considered hereditary, including mental illness, learning disabilities, physical deformity, epilepsy, blindness, deafness, and severe alcoholism. With the law’s passage the Third Reich also stepped up its propaganda against the disabled, regularly labeling them “life unworthy of life” or “useless eaters” and highlighting their burden upon society.

Red:
It may be so that when the Salt Lake Tribune ridicules a GOP-er, the GOP-er in question is a real POS; however, the article you've referenced doesn't represent the opinion of the paper's editorial board and publisher. The essay you've referenced is an op-ed, that is, it's the personal/independent opinion of its author.

Papers routinely publish opinion pieces by authors expressing points of view other than those the paper's publisher and editorial board hold. Such pieces go by a number of terms: op-ed, column, commentary. An editorial, for a paper at least, is an opinion piece wherein the publisher/editorial board express their own opinion. They generally don't identify the author's name (no "by-line" or the by-line is something akin to "the editorial board") because the paper itself is speaking, not any specific person.

Why do papers publish opinion pieces that don't agree with the publisher's/editorial board's views? Because it's a paper's job, at least if the paper would have people take it seriously, to do so. Thus the WaPo, NY Times and other world-class papers publish liberal and conservative op-eds. To know what "the paper" thinks, read the editorial pages, not the op-eds and columns, syndicated or non-syndicated.

It is important to note that in radio and television news, there generally isn't a direct equivalent to a newspaper's editorial. Rarely, if ever, do television network owners and executive managers (equivalent to the editorial board of a paper) on-air express their own opinions; however, program hosts routinely do. Such owners/executives may express their own views in some other venue. Mind, that's not to say non-print media execs/owners never use their network's air to express an institutional opinion; it's to say they rarely do. Why? Because airtime's expensive and few advertisers are willing to pay for the opinion of a network's institutional POV. In contrast, papers can simply "eat" the cost of their editorial page; paper and ink don't cost anything near what airtime does.

What has Congress proposed to solve the problem?

It's ignorant to blame the surge on President Trump. These caravans are organized and supported by open borders activists whose goal is to overwhelm and collapse the systen creating a defacto open border.
