’d like to point out that I said the GND was impractical
Impractical? Thats a kids glove descriptor .

How about insane, impossible, and a complete undermining of America. A power grab of ultimate measures. Not to mention the millions of dead Americans that would result from the full implementation of the GND

Yes it is. Even if the numbers you have were accurate that’s still one month. What’s the last quarter? The last year? The last 5 years? Donald Trump didn’t devise this strategy last week.

How bout a win for the integrity of our borders and our ability to support a large poor segment of our population with social services? Surely, you realize this isn’t sustainable financially. Your comments unfortunately reflect the true mentality of the majority of the Dems as you’d rather hurt our country than support common sense measures while Trump is President. I know of none of my conservative friends that would have rather spited our country than give Obama ‘a policy win”. The selfishness, narcissism and ignorance behind these type of stances saddens me as a American as if the majority of your friends feel like this our sovereignty is lost. Hope you can evolve your stance to Country over Party.

I never understood this debate point. If I was in another country with my kids and broke a law that resulted in my incarceration, what would happen to my kids?

The wall is the hill the right wants to die on because it’s a visual representation of the fear they’ve been fed. It’s not a nuanced discussion about the realities of illegal immigration and a strategy on how to deal with it. I’m sure a wall in some areas is the best use of our resources. I’m totally fine with that. We already have walls in some areas.

Depends on the country now doesn’t it? As a civilized society don’t you think it’s a good policy to not break up families? Can’t we have that and border security too?

Now project that number into the future. Seriously, how can you be so dumb? Caravans flooding into the country is not overblown you fricking simpleton. Just wait until Dems get control and give them voting rights. our country's leaders will be decided by foreigners .

It was a rhetorical question even if you are too dumb to realize it. Of course both sides pander.

So you dont want to address how children in America are separated from their families on a daily basis? Thought so

I can’t speak for you or your friends but this was absolutely the tact Republicans in Congress took with Obama and it was a very popular one with the majority of the right. Republicans were rewarded for this strategy in the 2016 election. Why wouldn’t Democrats use that formula?

Immigration? The last 5 months are already above the last full fiscal year in terms of apprehensions. There has been enough heroin and Fentanyl recovered at the border in the last six months to kill over 50 million people. A recent Yale study places the number of illegals in the US around 30 million.

You don’t know what tf you are talking about.

You, uh, know illegal immigrants isn’t the only thing the wall is for.... right?

Does it? I would imagine that I would be separated from my kids in any country at a minimum. If I intentionally involved my kids with breaking a law in another country that resulted in myself being incarcerated, I don’t believe I would too much moral and/or legal ground to stand on.

Temporary child separation was an Obama era policy designed to protect unidentifiable migrant children from accompanying adults, who in many cases, were sex traffickers, coyotes, or kidnappers. Dems had no issue with it until Trump was elected. And this bitch wants to lecture conservatives about pandering and demagoguery.

Think about how bad you have been brainwashed to believe that filth. We dont need a visual representation....we want a fricking wall to stop people from walking across our borders and claiming rights under our constitution. thats it. That is our fricking reason. accept it

Well #1 y’all keep citing numbers with no support so I have no idea how accurate what you’re saying is or isn’t.

#2 Even if you’re correct, I’ve said at least twice in this thread that I’m not against wall/fencing as part of an larger border security strategy.
