  1. Everyone is just going to stop trading with the US because they don't like Trump?
  2. Because I don't care if the UK or anyone else thinks he is nice or awesome. If he was a jerk and America was prospering, very few people would care.
  3. I just don't think anyone has to be likeable to make America great. I don't think Trump is making America great, but the idea that he has to be liked or else we won't be great is funny.
  4. So we are going to tax the rich. Then when that isn't enough (because it won't be) they'll just move down to the middle class. No thanks.
  5. My first question: where is the money going to come from?
  6. I don't agree with a lot of stuff Trump does or says and I didnt even vote for him, but I couldn't care less if he is liked especially by people outside of the US.
  7. I'm as much sure they're not as you are that they are. If there was no way at all for them to get into the US, I am confident that they would find somewhere else to find asylum. Acting like they'll all die if they don't get into the US is absurd.
  8. Do the gangs follow them around wherever they go? Pretty sure there are plenty of places they can go in the Americas.
  9. In other words he wants to do exactly what Canada is doing?
  10. Isn't it because of Reno v. Flores that says that they cannot have children detained for more than 20 days? What I don't understand is the difference between detaining them with their family and without their family hundreds of miles away. Why is one not legal and the other is?
  11. Missed that. Thank you for posting it.
  12. Why aren't these people seeking asylum in other countries? I understand why they want to come to the US. I asked this earlier but didn't get a response: Are the United States and Canada the only "safe" countries in all the Americas? Do the gangs follow these hoards of people across multiple countries until they get to the United States and then scurry back to Central America after the people they are after are across the border?
  13. Those are so hard to cut off.
  14. They are here illegally too. They should be deported too.
  15. Do they get paid on how hard they work? They can work hard and still be a burden. They do have better food though.
  16. So I'm an illegal immigrant and I try to get food stamps. I will not qualify. Then I start having children here who are US citizens, and if I cannot afford to feed them and provide medical care, the burden falls on the state to provide medical care and food. I think they walked all the way across Mexico to get the benefits that we will provide for them. Are the US and Canada the only "safe" places in all of the Americas? Because we do not have unlimited money and we are not the world's welfare system. Some of you think that we SHOULD be but we aren't.
  17. Even the author of the clause, Jacob M. Howard said it was not intended to apply to non citizens. During the debate over the first clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, he argued for including the phrase "and subject to the jurisdiction thereof:" [The 14th amendment] will not, of course, include persons born in the United States who are foreigners, aliens, who belong to the families of ambassadors or foreign ministers accredited to the government of the United States, but will include every other class of person.
  18. Does the welfare program have unlimited money? No? Well let's add even more people to the welfare rolls. Why is citizenship of any country sacrosanct? Our ancestors fought wars so that we could be our own country. Should we not be able to say who is worthy of citizenship or not if they were not born to people who are citizens? Of course, but that shouldn't mean that they are automatically US citizens in my opinion. Make sure they are well taken care of, but then send them back with their parents if they are not granted asylum.
  19. Is it not an incentive for them to come illegally?
  20. Emma Lazarus wrote that for a fundraiser and you act like it is the law of the land.
  21. It is! But that doesn't mean it's a good thing when they do come here illegally and they should be allowed to.
  22. Birthright citizenship and welfare and medical care for their children who will be born here.
  23. Not agreeing with it but you asked. This is how it happened as far as I could tell: Trump did not want people released into the United States that had not been approved for asylum. Because of Reno vs. Flores, children could not be detained more than 20 days, so they had to be sent to centers where they could be housed in the mean time. His motivations were to punish and deter immigrants from coming here. Now he plans to make them waive their child’s right to release and be detained indefinitely as a family, or exercise their child’s right to release and be separated from your child once more.
