We have a bipartisan bill that addresses the border issue, but MAGAturds don't want it because it takes a big chunk out of Clownzo's golf bag of issues to hypercatastrophize and fearmonger. Again, how do you "close" a 1,254-mile-long border? I'll sit back and listen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guys like Pimpadouche just want the lefty propaganda. That's it. He's too stupid to realize that "bipartisan" DOESN'T mean 300 Democrats and 2 Republicans.

Hardcore troubadour 14,930 Posted February 8, 2024 Community centers in poor areas weren’t being closed to the people in those communities to house migrants until Biden came along. Go ahead and tell those people it’s Trumps fault. I don’t think they will agree. Before and after. The evidence is clear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will adress it: I don’t believe that undocumented immigrants should be given priority over anyone already here. We should always help our veterans. But I think we should try to help these people too. I also object to the conservative mantra that whenever we spend money it’s always at the expense of somebody else that we didn’t spend money on. You guys use that for Ukraine a lot. Leftists used to use the same argument against the space program. It doesn’t fly with me. We should spend government money on whatever makes sense to spend it on, irregardless of other issues. Each issue should be looked at separately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This would be a legitimate argument for conservatives except that when they get into power they never cut any spending and consistently increase the debt worse than liberals do. So it’s not a question of too much spending, it’s only a question of what spending is preferred. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joe Biden has the most border crossings in the history of the country. All you have to figure out is what changed, and this thread is loaded with the reasons I assume you are talking about his 2017 numbers. Which is before allowing the highest spike in a decade, leading to the policies that people are touting around here like Title 42 and Remain in Mexico, then the numbers dropped again. Then they were back down to what they had been for most of the decade. Just think it's odd to take credit for that low number, but not admitting it was before he allowed that spike that led to policies I assume you like. Also it's odd that those policies and drop also came right before an election, but that never seems to be honestly admitted by his followers either. Yes, the border under Biden is way worse and the border is a sh1t show now. I just think it's funny that people tout Trump as a one of a kind border hawk when after his policies he didn't even have as low as numbers as the previous administration.
