United States immigration policy should be based on what's good for the United States, not what's good for every ass$hole on the planet because then every a$$hole on the planet will come. And there's a massive difference between legal and illegal immigration. If you bring skills needed and come legally, work legally, and pay taxes: Welcome. Whatever skin color you are. Really, I'll go so far as to say that if you get a masters degree in the US, your diploma should come with a citizenship application stapled to it. If you sneak across the border or overstay a work or student visa, fock off. Go away. You should be ineligable for employment or government assistance of any kind.

Labor shortages are easy to solve. "Here are 150,000 one year work visas." And if/when the Koch brothers regain control of the GOP ship, I'll go call 1-800-Hillary or whoever it is running the Dem's ship so long as it isn't AOC or Kamala Harris. I'm only here for Trump. I didn't vote for Bush or Romney (or McCain but he'd never made my sh*t list). Fock them.

I wonder what I'm missing sometimes. Other times I find out later that being tech stupid actually worked out well.

Fantastic idea. Good job. Hope they sell well.

It's a different flavor of Democrats responsible for that. The DNC was hacked for election stuff not the White House. No, the Obama administration is responsible for the Chinese hacking of the Department of Defense and the State Department. So China knows the top secret design plans for the stealth bomber plans and state of the art naval ships that the US spent hundreds of billions developing, intending to put them twenty years ahead militarily only would up putting the US twenty minutes ahead. Meanwhile, everybody else knows what Hillary Clinton secretly thinks of them and what she was doing and up to internationally. Caught spying on Germany? Really? How about pick up the phone and call Angela Merkel, she'll be happy to talk and there's a not quite 100% chance you can get full, complete, co-operative, non-evasive answers to anything you want to know. Focking stupid.

The Coleman Young method of community un-development; he inherited a nice, viable Detroit city in 1974 and turned it into an urban wasteland with 20 years of misrule. The cops are racist, we must fire half of them. Learn not to do it.

They are mostly good people and they do good work for less. It's why the Republicans like the cheap labor and the Dems like the votes which is why the borders never actually gets closed even though both sides shed crocodile tears about doing it. Trump legitimalty wants it shut down because it'll help drive up wages for US citizens, while the GOP establishment is like "no, no you're only supposed to talk about it, not actually do anything about it."

Nice job ~stick

That's not necessarily true but the moderate Democrats are on the outs. For a long time, I'd been wanting the Hillary/Pelosi/Schumer corporatist Dems to exit the stage but, amazingly, the younger, rival replacement faction on deck is even worse, not better. Regardless, I'll be voting for Trump in 2020 but it would still be nice if we had a signs of a viable Democratic Party worth voting for as a safeguard because I won't be voting for the Bush/Romney neocon corporatist GOP if they return to power after Trump leaves office. *Surprise! We're back! Let's invade Sh*tholistan!* Fock off. I'm only here for Trump. Let me see if Kamala Harris and the pink haired freaks that hate me because I'm a white male are less annoying (likely not but only them, I'd order up a glass of Bernie's koolaid before downing a serving Bush or Romney).

The ones I know, I don't like so the establishment ones are all out: Biden, Bernie, Beto, Harris, Warren, Booker, Gillibrand. Not interested. The more I know, the more I dislike. Klobashar isn't in this group because I don't dislike her, but I'm not intrigued either and won't be looking her way. Yang and Gabbard seem fine. I like Gravel, he's funny. Frankly, I'm hearing good things about Buttgig but I'm just so focking sick of LBGT nonsense, that I've not bothered yet to give him a listen. That's unfair, I likely should and soon since he's generating some buzz. Then there are some governors I don't know all that well that could be decent, Hickenlooper seems OK at a surface level look.

Such a beautiful setup ... but given the circumstances, I'm really not in the mood to spike the ball.

Obama warned them a week or two ago to be wary of conducting a circular firing squad but that seems to be what's unfolding.

I suppose when I wake up in the morning, I'll want to read an article or two of what it is they find but I'm not all that curious and don't want to waste too much time or too many brain cells on it.

They may or may not retain the House in 2020 just like they may or may not take the Senate or may or may not beat Trump. Lots can happen between now and the election and things are not nearly settling into place.
