After about six months of rounding up the criminals, Trump will stop all $$$ for housing, food stamps, welfare etc... to illegal aliens that they will begin to self deport back to their homelands. It's going to be great! All of the fired Federal Workers can get new jobs picking fruit and washing dishes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

California was a purple state way past Reagan. It wasn’t until the 90s that we became a blue state, as a a reaction to Prop 187, an anti- immigrant measure. Reagan’s amnesty created a decades long economic boon that the nation continues to enjoy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reagan made the deal, which promised future security measures, to please anti- immigrant hardliners in his own party. But Reagan himself would have given amnesty without any such deal, he originally proposed it when he ran for President in 1980. He was always sympathetic to undocumented immigrants. It was a key part of his core ideology about what made America the “shining city on the hill.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You always boast about California. The debt ratio compares a state's liabilities to its assets and revenues. As of 2022, California had the nation's fifth-worst debt ratio, at 106%—meaning the state owes more money than it takes in. The next two most populous states, Texas and Florida, had far lower debt ratios of 46.52% and 30.26%, respectively. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Without undocumented immigrants it would be much much higher. We’re still the richest state in the union so I think we’ll survive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reagan gave amnesty, then Republicans ran on closing the border, democrats ran on giving more and more benefits, as these people started to vote, they voted blue, despite the fact reagan made them legal, fast forward, all of their kids were blue cause of all the free stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of these folks, and Latin Americans in general, voted blue over the years not because of any handouts but because they correctly perceived the growing anti-undocumented immigrant stance of Republicans as rooted in anti-Latino bigotry. Thats changed however. Many Latinos voted for Trump this time around because they were more concerned about inflation than they were about his racism, and they wrongly believed he could fix inflation. I think they will live to regret both miscalculations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Real timschochet 6,397 Posted February 9 And I expect Trump’s popularity to grow. For now. Every once in a while in our history America pulls inward and a lot of ugliness emerges. It happened in the 1930s and again in the 1950s. It’s happening now. We are a good and decent people. Most of those who voted for Trump this time around aren’t racist or awful, they just chose to overlook some stuff it’s not wise to overlook. We will recover from this. It will take a little time.

The real ugliness is the stench which has taken over Washington for decades. Endless useless wars. Taking out foreign leaders. Putting in puopet governments with rogue agencies doing all kinds of corrupt and terrible deeds. Creation of the surveillance state. Infiltrating the media. The mass censorship complex. Mass corruption putting huge amounts of money in the pockets of bootlicking deep state politicians. You think all that is some kind of wild conspiracy theory. The sad thing is even as the truth gets exposed you will defend to the end every item listed above because you are so far gone. Your love for a big centralize power where the people are merely subject shows everyday. Nothing that gets exposed will ever change your mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
