My concern had more to do with individuals who take advantage of the healthcare system without paying into it either by taxes, social security, or not paying their bills. Go into any ER in Mexico bordering state and they'll tell you difficulties of treating the patients. I believe an ER should see everyone and not turn them down, however I realize the uncomfortable position this belief requires. I would hope strong borders and deportation we could limit such abuses

There are useful idiots all over. All major politicians exploit them. For instance, I don't think anyone can possibly bring back all of the manufacturing jobs that left the rust belt. It may be possible to attract new investment and bring new jobs to the area, but that doesn't mean that places like Buffalo or Detroit have a future in manufacturing and should give up diversifying their economy.

A lot of Trump's political enemies are disingenuous and hyperbolic about him because of their own shocking defeats. They are still really upset about November so there's no limit to the nonsense they will say. From there you have the mouth pieces that spread lies, and the fools that believe them. The Russians conspiracy and Pissgate are good examples.

This morning I'm trying to line up a man who I know is here illegally to do some tree trimming. He's the best I've ever hired for this type of work. I do not care that he is here illegally because he is a productive family man with children in school and his dependability and quality of work far exceeds others I've used in the past. If necessary, I would help him evade detection and deportation because I feel he is an asset to our community. I don't give a shite about his lack of green card or citizenship. That fricking piece of paper has as much credibility to me as Donald Trump's imaginary wall.

They're not taking away Americans jobs because americans dont want to do those jobs. Harsh immigration laws tend to have very negative impacts on their economies.


Why don't Americans want to do those jobs? The answer is because they are low-paying jobs. They're low paying jobs because employers expect to be able to get illegal immigrants to do them for less because illegals can't be picky about the work they can get.

If we give all of the illegals a pathway to citizenship, then they won't have to settle for the low paying jobs they currently are limited to.

The so-called "uneducated whites" voted for Trump because they recognized that the Democrats vision of the future has them competing with these illegals for jobs in an economy that has been stagnant for years.

I do find most people who didn't vote for Trump ignorant. They simply can't see our nation's problems that Trump and his team have clearly articulated:

42% Unemployment rate
Swedish Terrorism
The Bowling Green Massacre


Democrats simply don't understand the only way to tackle these problems is to hit the links at Mar a Lago.

40% of this country believes evolution is a lie and 20% believe the universe is less than 10k years old. 85% believe you get the flu/cold from being in cold weather too long.


Of course I believe most people are ignorant.

Everyone is ignorant of one thing or another. I don't value the opinions of people who use common words incorrectly.
