    NumbersUSA, for the period I was addressing anyway, gave Romney a B- ... much to do with his, "self-deportation," philosophy.

    You must stay current, then you will see their real intentions. Dad always said "the road to hell is paved with good intentions". John McCain said, "build the damn wall".....did he even help to do it? Obama even spoke, at one time, of illegals must obey the laws......that was before he decided they could stay.
    F- is a really poor grade.
    E verify IS a really good concept........there are ways around it. Why not send them back when caught? It's always been my question. Burn a candle at both ends.....they'll leave eventually by attrition. Then we can be proud of our sovereignty.

    You have repeatedly made it clear that you hold trump to the same standard as an internet troll.

    Value should not be derived by the amount of hatred one garners.

    when it comes to how butthurt you are over his personality.

    People shouldn't change for you you're not important enough.
    When the hatred he garners is how much of a socialist he's not then yes, that is something I value in a leader of a republic.

    I'm not a socialist, I don't like socialists. Those ideas lead to genocide. Anybody who promotes this genocidal crap should be considered an enemy to the state.

    That was your socialist and this hurts your feelings good. I'm not saying what I think to be nice to you.

    I actually agree with this as a rule, but Trump haters are so consumed with hatred, grinding their teeth 24/7, that they wind up generating sympathy for Trump from the non-haters, who, like me, don't even think about national politics very much (they have real lives to lead), but they do know they don't want to be like you.

    Remember the old gay rights mantra from the 80's, "Hate is not a Family Value!"? Well, the gays were right. It isn't. It's a huge turnoff to normal people. And it's been going on daily since before his inauguration!

    But as they used to say, haters gonna hate.

    No, it is absolutely impossible for you to justify your internet troll-esque levels of support based on some irrational divide between Socialism and whatever form of Government you think Trump embodies. You have repeatedly and explicitly based your love for Trump solely on the notion of whether Trump has garnered hatred from your fellow Americans - while simultaneously calling those Americans the enemy and the plague.

    Case in point, how much does it take for a Trump supporter to become a Socialist?

    ~1200$ per adult.

    I just did. So much for your impossibilities.

    the enemy is within.
    I'm sorry a bailout doesn't equal socialism. Nice try.

    Taking care of citizens in times of famine and pestilence is what gave rise to government in the first place! It maybe the first responsiblity of the governing.

    And in America, you would have gotten nothing more than an angry retort. In Russia, China and N. Korea, maybe more serious consequences, so your own examples invalidate your point, k-l-e-v-i-r!

    TO BE FAIR, IT WAS A SAFE BET, STATISTICALLY: FACT CHECK: Trump Asked a Reporter If She Was Working For China… She Is.

    She lied, of course.

    President Trump asked a reporter at his April 6th press event if she was working for the government of China, following a hostile question.

    She replied that her company – Phoenix Media – is “privately” owned.

    She’s lying.

    The Hong Kong/Cayman Islands based Phoenix Media is actually owned in large part by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and by a former CCP propaganda officer.

    65 percent of the company is owned by the government of China.

    The White House Correspondents Association must surely answer to why they are allowing a CCP propagandist a seat in the White House Press Briefing Room.

    Huh?

    When the ONLY Reason that Trump even holds those briefings is so that Trump can Spew his Brain-Dead Propaganda?

    Wait. So is Trump a horrible person for trying to help people and do something “socialist?” Or did you agree with the bailout? Do you support anything he does if all you had to do was switch his name? If Hillary was doing all this right now, you’d be calling her a Great leader, kind empathetic and caring person.

    So... when a person gets aid from the government, because it's sick or something, gets financial aid to go to the hospital. Than we got socialism. But when companies get aid from the same government because of a sickness.... than it's not socialism.

    Right...
    That's not really convincing, now is it?

    Propaganda or not...
    The US is probably buying massive amounts of medical equipment like face masks etc, to combat this virus. And that reporter sure did make Donald look bad. I mean, he first downplayed that virus as if it's just a flu, to than flip flop into an emergency, and blame China that he didn't know it was bad... when we all knew they were stacking up the corpses,.... to now... oh please China can I have some more face masks. Good lord. This aint no MAGA.

    pretty convincing for me. there's a difference between being out of work because the govt ordered your business closed vs deciding you want to sit home by choice. (duly noted that's not applicable to all welfare recipients)

    I haven't been affected yet myself, neither has the vast majority of my family or friends, but thats pure luck with being in the right occupations and or being retired.

    Other family groups I'm sure are on the opposite end of that.

    I long for the day when one of the reporters fires back. Calls him out on his pettiness. But, sadly, they will be banned from the pressers - so their right to free speech is, indeed, compromised.

    You can say that. But they have to close due to a health hazard, for the greater good, for something the government hardly has control over but gets more control due to closing businesses. We can't have anarchy. It's not as if the government has an alternative and they did not ask for this. People who can not come to work due to a health hazard of their own also did not ask for it, but do get fired over it.

    1) So that's "not really" treating everything equally and fair.
    2) Companies should have had way more of a financially backbone to chew on instead of living on the dough at the first glimp of a setback. Donald gave them a massive tax break. Let's not kid ourselves over that one. Companies took a risk to go broke over a possibility of pandemic outbreak. Nobody asked them to take that risk. Ordinary people go broke all the time for taking such risks in life. Get kicked out of their houses, etc.

    Nice to hear. But that's not really relevant.
