What has your party done lately? The democrats seem to be calling for civil disobedience and harassment of people they don't like. Ernst Röhm would be proud of them. No surprise to me you righties embrace Trump's nationalism and his hatred of religious, racial,* and ethnic* minorities once he finishes reading his* faked compassion off the teleprompter, and then try to protect it onto the Dems for complaining about it. This is nothing but a narrative that your party has been squealing about since November of 2016 and is repeated so often that some even believe it must be true. So when is your party going to go on record regarding more immediate issues like the caravan marching towards the border and another already 3,000 strong beginning their march to Mexico and ultimately to the US border? Their silence is deafening. I suppose if I were a Trumpite with half a working brain, I'd be "working" overtime to try to find ways to rationalize Trump's racism and other pig-like behavior. As for the refugees, I'm not overly concerned about a few thousand Central Americans coming north for the opportunity to leave behind the horrors of their homelands and find decent menial work and safety for themselves and their children in the U.S.A. My grandparents on both sides did the same thing. Ok Thanks. At least you've voiced your position.* You are obviously *for* allowing thousands of immigrants to illegally enter the USA. No reason in your mind for Congress to change anything.* Let Trump deal with the problems of assimilating them into our society.* All it can do is make him look bad, right? Oh ... did your grandparents on both sides immigrate illegally or legally?* Did they apply for citizenship in accordance with law or did they sneak over the border and turn themselves in claiming "asylum"? I don't know what the status of my grandparents was when they "landed" here and got off the boats. Never discussed it with any of them. All four of them became citizens at some point. If they arrived by boat as my grandparents did in 1907, it's doubtful that they entered the USA illegally. I recently came across my grandfather's naturalization papers. He arrived from Sweden in 1907 at the age of 17 and became naturalized in 1916. By then he was married and had one son, my uncle, who was 10 years older than my father. My uncle was a marine engineer. He and I shared the same birthday (Oct 19th) although obviously he was here many years before me. |
