I don't know anyone who hates immigration. Now I am not fond of lawless people who think our laws do not apply to them. These people with no respect for our laws are not good people. They are not immigrants but criminals that need to be removed from our country so decent law abiding people can legally immigrate.

My point has been that Trump has trashed legal immigrants, refugees and asylum seekers with things like his snake poem.

When it involves insulting women and lying about various ethnic and racial groups, yes it is. He is supposed to unite the country, not insult half of it.

Are you a woman he insulted?

I'll take that loud mouthed, uncouth lout, ANY DAY over a weak wristed liberal, male or female. You'll just have to figure out what actually is a lie.

smallvoice,
You are right. If Trump got rid of Barry's social justice warrior orders in order to improve the economy, then that is a good thing - up until about three weeks. Now, what does that all matter?
Now Trump has to lead the country out of this mess and encourage the economy to, once more, rev up again. Can he do that before November? Who knows?
We need to get back to where we were so we can feel normal again.
I want Trump to help us do that. Our future and his political fortunes depend on that.

Nice post. Do you actually think that anything Trump did caused this virus? This will be over eventually, and we will steam on.

So you prefer loud mouthed, uncouth lout Conservatives who are too limp wristed to serve their country in the military when called; opting to use daddy's clout to " sleep around in Manhattan, avoid STDs", and brag about it as true American Patriot's bodies roll down conveyor belts in caskets at DOVER AFB, after giving the ultimate sacrifice?

Having trouble reading or did you just feel the need to paraphrase what I said into what you wanted me to say?

Still having trouble reading? I answered you. Maybe it's 'understanding' that is the problem.

Or more likely a refusal to answer a fair YES or No question about a limp wristed 5 time draft dodging cowardly, orange POTUS.

I believe Biden had deferments as well. I don't think Bernie served either. So it is a non-issue in this election

This thread is about Trump. If you'd like to discuss Biden, start a new thread in the proper forum area, and Biden can be discussed there. No need to derail a Trump thread with talk about Biden.

Former high school football star Biden got a 1-Y draft deferment for “asthma as a teenager.” It was one of five deferments Biden received and allowed him to avoid being drafted at the height of the war.

If you complain about Trump not serving, then a consistent and honest position would be to also complain about all those Dems who never served-such as Biden.

Interesting-he could play college ball but not hump a rifle in a rice paddy. sort of like Howard-the scream-Dean who also got some sort of deferment so he could go skiing in the Swiss Alps

Military service is a non-issue in an election where neither candidate served. I like Trump because he respects the military far more than Hillary or Biden does

No. I've had enough. You are now on the ignore list, you have NOTHING to add.

I lived in Fremont, CA from 1965 until June of 2019 and saw a massive change. it went from white farmers and tract home owners to what now appears to be a city found in China. But wait, there are also tons of people of India and of Afghanistan.

Now, how did diversity improve my former city? Easy peasy. The Chinese tend to favor good education for their kids.

So you've lived through it all:

1970 demographics
Whites 15 million
Latinos 2.5 million
Asians 1 million
Blacks 2 million

2017 demographics
Whites 15 million
Latinos 16 million
Asians 8 million
Blacks 3 million

California is no longer the paradise over the mountains like it became for Americans in the 40's,
50's & even 60's but it's a far better place for Mexicans than Mexico & far better place for Chinese
than China & far better place for the Phillipinos, Vietnamese, Laotians & Cambodians than is Asia.

1.) and so....you attribute that carte blanche?

++ No, I am just relating history, not approving of it.

2) then I concede I may have mistakenly thought you female. What is puzzling still, is how you can condemn our President, when as a male, you likely participated in base locker room speak, or got your butt kicked for being too feminine.

++ As I said, was in high school locker rooms on both coasts in urban and suburban schools, but never heard anyone brag about ***** grabbing. My fellow locker roomers would have maybe smiled but not get into that sort of conversation again with the oaf that said it.

3) So you are trying to remember those specific words? C'mon. You have heard a helluva lot worse. So whom are we to criticize? You, me, and everyone in the locker room? It is the affect of testosterone. It would seem your concern is natural tendency. I don't know how one can, or ought, fix that.

CP

The Chinese I talked to told me their plan was make money here, live back in China.

The exact quotes in my post have quotation marks. You can google "Trump tweet saying blacks responsible for majority of white homicides." and get several sources. The "Crime Statistics Bureau" is the source, and is apparently non-existent. Trump got a Pants on Fire from Politifact. He himself when challenged trashed the source as not very good. The false number was 81%. Those reporting made reference to FBI stats that are nowhere near that.

It has been my experience that if one does not like Trump, one vividly imagines he has done all kinds of evil. Ps. I too am old.

Style is meaning. Obama focused on criminal aliens and also others, but didn't make bigoted comments about them.

How would you discuss people who break laws? Are you saying Obama was gentle to them as he kicked their asses back to Guatemala?
