Most "illegals" crossed the border legally. And then overstayed their visas...
2nd impeachment
There are a few problems with your argument PHX.
You are implying that people crossing the border are the same as those that wanted to hang Pence and take Congress prisoners.
Want to compare Jose who came from Mexico across the border and is not on a green card, visa, etc to the girl that died?
Jose is scared shitless and drives 5mph below the speed limit everywhere. Jose is scared shitless and never runs a stop sign or red light. Jose pays cash for everything.
Ashli had restraining orders against her. Ashli was in serious debt and in the court system. Ashli made comments inciting violence against her country and it's politicians.
Yeah . . . who is the real criminal?
I am not saying that all immigrants are not criminals. Hell, that's how we got the mafia! What I am saying is that so much more crime, at all levels, comes from citizens compared to those that are not here by legal means.
What is missing from your logic is the outcome.
What would have happened if the mob made it to Pence. That black cop who pushed the idiot in the chest and went the other way, leading them away from Pence. What would have happened if the wannabe weekend warriors tied up congress? What would have happened if they killed the third in line?
By no means should it be that fucking simple to overthrow our government. If you are telling me that it takes 10k people to show up, to just bum rush the capitol and that's it, then democracy is REALLLLLLLLLYYYYY fucking fragile.
My take is simple: I don't care who the fuck did the shit. I don't care wtf their reason for what they did is. I don't care if they were after AOC, Mitch, Cruz, Pelosi or Pence. I care that they tried to overthrow the government. That is not patriotism. That is the complete opposite. I have ZERO problems with these people either being imprisoned for life, executed, or even deported. We have methods in place to handle politicians you do not like.
Freedom has no value if violence is the price.
“ Don't want to talk about the Congressman (D) who wants to protect himself with a wall but not the rest of us. ”
How many South Americans are breaking through carrying semi automatic weapons, explosives, zip ties, bear spray? How many want to do harm to any American?
You’re worried about a Congressman who wants to protect himself. You never once mention controlling the Congressmen who are enabling these domestic terrorists.
Come back when you’re not a prick.
Yep, you're an asshole who needs new glasses and multiple news channel coverage.
8INCH---->Sure, let's talk about that insurrection and a wall AND military AND guns needed for security of the Dem AND Repub politicians.
You sure nailed it right there......Politicians. Of course we don't want to talk about crime in our major metropolitan cities where the average citizen is being killed. But those Politicians? OMG protect them at all costs. I wonder.......are we (the royal we) still wanting to defund the Police in Washington DC? I bet we are.
Insurrection? Sure looked like a mostly peaceful protest to me. Sheesh, where is MSNBC's Ali Velshi when ya need him huh?
Know where else we need walls?
On baseball fields to give automatic home runs.
Inside of long doubles, triples and inside the park homers.
This mantra of ALL walls being bad or unnecessary are as silly as your cynicism.
Your cynicism isn't cute or intelligence.
It's from being a smart ass/asshole.
A wall for politicians that your people tried to kidnap and kill AFTER breaking into a Federal building?
Sure, let's talk about that insurrection and a wall AND military AND guns needed for security of the Dem AND Repub politicians.
P.S.
Millions of Dems and other non-Repubs have guns. Biden and Harris ain't grabbing nobody's guns.
8INCH---->Have you seen the he videos of ppl climbing your new, invincible beautiful wall?
LMAO - Don't want to talk about the Congressman (D) who wants to protect himself with a wall but not the rest of us. Yeah, I can't say that I blame ya.
Mexico didn't pay for this one either.
Have you seen the he videos of ppl climbing your new, invincible beautiful wall?
It's not exactly the Wall of China.
Sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction....
Congress.gov - Congressman Ritchie Torres (D-NY-15) - H.R, 339 - To direct the Architect of the Capitol to design and install an appropriate fence around the perimeter of the United States Capitol, including the East Front and the West Front.
How about that? Walls actually do work. Well, when taxpayer dollars are being used to protect the Political Elite from the great unwashed.
2outdoors,
It bears repeating.
Now in terms of repeating: just speak English and do something useful....like making a wise post in these Forums
or sone key reasons to critique him (and refer are more reasons why he is going down in history ranked as the worst one or two.
Ok Gandhi we get it. Trump is going down as the worst 1 or 2 pres ever. You've made your opinion on this ABUNDANTLY CLEAR about 150 times.
Damn man. Come up with some new material...
Funfor2houston....love it and well said.
My days on earth are numbered; But before I fade away, there is something important I need to say. It may not be important to anyone else; but it's important to me.
Win, lose or fraud...President Trump. I just want to say thank you for the last four years.
Thank you for making it cool to be an American again.
Four years ago we were Democrats , I tried to become a delegate to to state party . We had been Democrats since we had been in HS as McGovern volunteers . I shook Hubert Humphreys hand We made it through the inflation of Jimmy Carter , liked him but he had no backbone. Didn’t like Reagan because of a speech in Philly.
Loved Bill Clinton , made a lot of money . Didn’t like Bushes , they loved War. We voted for Obama , but by the middle of his second term we realized all he did was race bate. He used and took advantage of the poor and the minority’s . Any how I wanted to be a Democrat state delegate went to the caucus at a local HS ....Then Boom here came no lie, bus loads of people to the caucus who nobody had ever seen before . Our caucus became a bunch of racial bs . So we bailed on HRC.. A friend , a realtor in Houston was invited to a Trump fund raiser . He invited us and we went . We met Trump and I will say this all my life . The man loves this country and he is not a racist. He has everything anyone could ever want and he was not a politician .
We met his campaign managers here in Houston , they never ever said a cross word against the Democrat party . They just wanted to make America Great . We went to the rallies and Never ever seen violence . We had frozen water bottles thrown at us . We had a 9 year old boy that had to go to a clinic because he got hit in the eye with a frozen bottle. We seen people there that had nothing and we seen people that were very very wealthy . I watched our American cities burn last summer , then because of George Floyd the battle cry became ( defund the police ) Now a few congress members an illegitimate president we call out the National Guard . Do you get it these people don’t care about you .
Lol

SN1987 has made a succinct, compelling case about the damage Trump has done or sone key reasons to critique him (and refer are more reasons why he is going down in history ranked as the worst one or two.
Can you at this point make a case why you personally support Trump not by critiquing Hillary or Biden but just by explaining why Trump appeals so much to your heart or to your personal investment in him?
Ps. If you respond to this question, you are welcome to end the statement with your verbal tic: a LoL.
Where's your list of all the reasons you so vehemently support him?
2much. , come on man , where’s your list ?
“400K deaths due to Covid?“ FALSE
“$8 Trillion dollars added to the US debt in just 4 years...”
And our congress had nothing to do with this ?, hmm they just wanted to send millions to Pakistan for a gender study , shit I could do that for free , you have a dick or you don’t !
Complete breakdown in relations with long-time allies. Loss of respect in much of the rest of the world, and an emboldening of dictators.
So no peace deals ???
“just last week there were 950,000 initial claims for unemployment. That's close to a million people who lost their jobs in a week”
Biden’s federal $15 min. Wage will fix this ?
NOT LIKELY
"Facts are the enemy of truth!" cries Don Quixote de la Mancha.
Sn ,your posting a lot of false information again !
Yeah, I have to say, I largely don't hate Trump supporters at all (my exception being the members of the KKK and other such racist organizations). I actually just feel sad about it all. It's fine if they believe in conservative principles, like small gov't, lower taxes, less regulations, but right now Trumpers are pretty in a cult and dragging down the country with them.
“ Alan Dershowitz says this 2nd impeachment has broken 6 laws , lol . Only Democrats can screw up twice !”
What don’t you get? How can you screw up an impeachment? Trump is officially and always will be impeached twice. That is not being erased in the history books. Right now he is the only President to ever be impeached twice. There was no screwing that up.
Was Trump convicted in his first impeachment? No. But that does not remove the impeachment. Will Trump be convicted in his second impeachment? Probably not. There will be more votes to convict this time around. But I doubt they will get the 17 needed. But none the less it will not undo the impeachment.
Trump is the very best at one thing.
Being impeached.
Let's see, where are we at now? 400K deaths due to Covid? I took a look myself, and pretty much the Republican areas are leading in terms of new cases per capita. I just heard on NPR some researchers looked at the results state by state, and it was glaringly obvious that states that followed scientific public health recommendation (wearing masks, social distancing, etc) did MUCH better than states that didn't. And Trump is largely to blame for leading us down a path where we ignore the medical science and instead make obvious public safety recommendations into a political issue to divide the nation.
Just last week there were 950,000 initial claims for unemployment. That's close to a million people who lost their jobs in a week.
$8 Trillion dollars added to the US debt in just 4 years...
Complete breakdown in relations with long-time allies. Loss of respect in much of the rest of the world, and an emboldening of dictators.
Nation is more divided than ever. Way worse than 4 years ago, which was already bad. It was so bad that a mob incited by the president stormed the Capitol and tried to capture members of Congress in order to overturn a free and fair election, one which was certified by all 50 states, with multiple audits in battleground states (3 audits in Ga for instance). The Trump submitted what "evidence" they had in more than 60 court cases, and in those court cases the judges (both D and R plus some appointed by Trump himself) said the evidence for fraud was lacking.
Clyde, do you want me to go on, or are you going to go back to your echo chamber to drink more kool-aid? It's funny, 4 years ago at Trump's inaugural speech, he talked about the "carnage" of Obama's presidency, another one of his lies. He inherited a 4.5% unemployment rate from Obama, and is handing off a 6.7% unemployment rate. Obama created over 10M jobs, Trump will have destroyed 3M jobs. That's right, there are fewer employed people than when Trump started... These are just the facts, ma'am.
