You can tell things are collapsing for Trump when people have to resort to these hypotheticals to defend his failed policies

I believe the country would be headed in a better direction with Harris and Walz. They prioritize policies like affordable healthcare, climate action, and social equity, which address systemic issues and promote inclusivity. Trump and Vance, on the other hand, often push divisive rhetoric and policies that favor the wealthy, neglecting the needs of marginalized groups and environmental concerns. Harris and Walz offer a vision for a more just and sustainable future

Agreed. And I never claimed they did.

If one single policy positively affects you (tax cuts, etc) then you have to admit that the Republicans did more for you than the Democrats.


They are all the same. If a policy happens to positively impact me, it will be by happenstance.

Then you should vote for the next Republican candidate in 2028, correct?


I doubt I will ever vote for a R or D for president again. But I live in LA so you can rest easy knowing my electors will always vote for the R.

We would absolutely be much better off.

Trump policies have significantly harmed almost all sectors of our economy. I can't really identify a Trump policy that has been good for America.


So, you actually favored letting up to 20 million illegal invaders into our country, including many who were/are dangerous criminals, while completely ignoring our laws?

You were okay with voting for a "president" who is so inarticulate that she actually had to "negotiate" with CNN, a corrupt news organization that was actually in the tank for her? You were okay with the fact that the idiot did such a poor job in an interview with 60 Minutes that they had to strongly edit her performance? You would really be okay with an idiot like her talking to world leaders and representing America?

You really favored the candidate who had neither a plan or any desire to reduce waste and fraud in our government?

And finally, didnt it arouse your curiosity regarding some of the people who supported each candidate? Did it not bother you that one of the biggest Military Industrial Complex cronies, WAR CRIMINAL Dick Cheney, came out in support of Kamala Harris? MEANWHILE, Bobby Kennedy and Tulsi Gabbard crossed the aisle to support Trump. That didn't tell you anything?

Congratulations on supporting a totally incompetent woman who would've been nothing more than a puppet for the Political Establishment just like Biden was.

I'm sure I won't get anything but a soundbyte response, but that's indicative of what our #1 problem is in this country. 50% of the voters in our country are so damn stupid and easily manipulated that it allows our corrupt Political Establishment to keep on rolling along like the Mississippi River.

"Congratulations" on being one of those clueless fools.

I asked a 80 year old (who is tip top physicallly and mentally) this question who I know is a democrat , why he voted for Kamala.

He told me he didn’t vote for her but for trump. He then explained this is not the democrat party he once knew and that they have lost their way.

He explained that voting for Trump was really like voting for John F Kennedy or a Bill Clinton and he don’t know what in the hell the democrat party is trying to do other than destroy America.

That’s his take.

Sorry to see you're still as clueless as ever.

That poll was conducted by one of the least accurate polling firms. The most accurate polling firm, Rasmussen, has Trump's approval rating the same as it was when he was elected.

You fell for obvious propaganda.

I never claimed that, nor am I melting about him. I don’t think I even criticized him. The only thing that would give any indication of how I feel about Trump is that I wrote that I voted for him, contributed to him, and am in favor of his tariffs.

Count me in, among the 59% of Americans who have been so scurrilously designated as "without a brain." All Trump and Musk have accomplished is disharmony and glaring dysfunction.

Yeah, well Eisenhower also had the lowest disapproval ratings when he left office and the 3rd highest approval rating for all the presidents in those 72 years. So the 100-day mark polls mean little in the grand scheme of things.

What have they actually accomplished? Ended the war in Ukraine? Built the wall?

He’s cracked down on illegal immigration. How has your life tangibly improved from that? I’m not talking about feelings. I don’t care who feels better about it. How specifically has your life tangibly improved because only 7 million people illegally crossed into the US last month? Illegal immigration is a huge red herring.

The Washington Post reported that the border catch and release numbers have currently dropped 99.9% from the Biden administration's worth month. That's incredible.

How many politicians have ever done anything at all to positively affect anyone within the first 100 days in office? Government is known as slow-moving and often ineffective for a reason. Not every accomplishment includes an instant personal reward for every citizen. Stopping illegal immigration in its tracks by these kinds of unbelievable numbers obviously benefits all legal American citizens in the long run due to less financial resources being used/stolen by illegals, less crime potential, less people taking jobs that legal residents could have, etc.

Not recognizing the huge illegal immigration crackdown as a success so early on in his 2nd term is just being disingenuous. Trump overpromises on numerous things, but in part, he has not underdelivered on the border safety part and it is very important.

Yes, that comment is just as ridiculous as the people who scoff at the idea that there's a corrupt Political Establishment in America which has been sucking the very essence out of this country for decades.

That's the thing - how has decreasing illegal immigration positively affected you?

Illegal immigration did not negatively OR positively impact me or anyone I know. It's a giant red herring.

A lot of people knew Laken Riley. But as long as you didn't know her, you don't care that she was brutally murdered? Are you really this heartless?

I bet you would've cared if it had been one of your children.

Ok let’s say only 7 people crossed illegally. Or even 0 people.

How has your life Improved?


Your math isn't mathing. If it used to be 7,000,000 (your number) and now its only 7, my life in Houston has vastly improved.

If I get through a light faster, I have more of my life to live not in traffic. If I can send my kids to public schools because they are now at reasonable class sizes and taught in english, it will save me the $50,000 a year that I pay for private schooling for two kids. If I have to go to the ER, I won't have to wait 6 hours to get stitches (like last time) and it won't cost me $3800 subsidizing uninsured (like last time) . Car insurance would go way down, as a parent to 3 driving teens and 6 cars, that would be thousands each year saved (half the drivers on Houston's roads are uninsured/unlicensed) Crime in Houston would go waaaaay down if MS13 gang bangers were kept out of the country... less crime benefits me not only because I appreciate not being killed, but would need fewer police on the street, an additional tax savings.

Do you need more? Damn, these were just off my head. I'm personally spending prob $70k a year in pretax income because Houston has so many poor illegals.

I don't judge how successful or impactful something is just based on how it affects me. I'm part of a country and I want success for my family, friends and fellow citizens. The current border numbers are an obvious huge success story for us as a country for the reasons I previously pointed out. Anyone honestly looking at the big picture when considering all of the issues that illegal immigration causes can admit to this.

But to answer your question, in my field of work, I have seen less illegal immigrants applying for jobs. Of course, you could say it's just a coincidence, but we usually have a few that start some of the application process for certain positions and then we find out that they don't have the legal identification documents to work with us. That hasn't happened recently. It seems that people who have been here illegally or just gotten here illegally are getting much more careful about who they reach out to for employment due to the illegal immigrant crackdown. And that's a time saver for me in my field of work.

Let's say Harris and Walz had won. Who here 1) thinks the country would be headed in a better direction, and 2) why do you feel that way? What would be better?

Here's your chance to convince those of us who are ecstatic that it's Trump and Vance instead of those two.


I dont think Kamala or Walz would be great leaders, but I also don't think they would outright ignore the constitution the way that this administration has. I do think if they had enacted the same policies that Trump has, from Tarrifs to AEA, the right would be screaming for their heads.
