So Trump said this morning on NBC that he will end birthright citizenship and deport the families of illegals even if they were born here. Not sure how you get around the 14th amendment but he will try. So again, people who were born here to parents who are undocumented and you voted for Trump, how you feeling about that now?

Widespread government-imposed pain, anguish, cruelty, violence, barbarism, and even much death are coming to fascist America.

History shows that is exactly what the cults of fascism deliver (along with the cults of communism).

America will prove to be no exception.

Apparently he also said something about working with the Dems to try and work out a legality plan for Dreamers. I don't remember him saying anything like that during the campaign, or am I misremembering? Of course, he still wants to end birthright citizenship.

Trump details sweeping changes he’ll carry out on day one and beyond in an exclusive interview
Trump vowed to launch a mass deportation effort, impose tariffs and pardon many convicted in the Jan. 6 attack in an interview with “Meet the Press” moderator Kristen Welker. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-details-sweeping-changes-ll-carry-day-one-exclusive-interview-rcna182858

  Quote

President-elect Donald Trump vowed to make immediate and sweeping changes after he takes office on Jan. 20, such as pardons for those convicted in the attack on the U.S. Capitol, and said he wants to find a legislative solution to keep Dreamers in the country legally.

...

An exception might be the “Dreamers” — people who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children and have lived here for years. He voiced openness toward a legislative solution that would allow them to remain in the country.

“I will work with the Democrats on a plan,” he said, praising “Dreamers” who’ve gotten good jobs, started businesses and become successful residents. “We’re going to have to do something with them,” he said.

He also said he intends to eliminate birthright citizenship, the protection enshrined in the 14th Amendment that guarantees citizenship to anyone born on U.S. soil regardless of their parents. Asked about the likelihood that doing so unilaterally would face legal opposition, Trump said he would consider amending the Constitution.

He said that when he was president and never did a thing.

I admit that Mexico gets a positive benefit from the American expats who receive and spent their retirement dollars in Mexico - but the social and economic upheaval of deporting all those people into Mexico would far outweigh the hit of deporting the American ex-pats.   If the above situation should come to pass, I don’t think that the Mexican President’s expressed views on the subject can be ignored.

Welp. Thanks Trump. Mexico is our most frequent, favorite vacation destination. I was telling Mrs. Wood (no pics) the other day that we'd better start planning a trip there, because there's no telling how much longer we'll be welcome the way we always have been.

You'll still be welcome there if you truly love the place. Mexico sheltered lots of Red Scare Exiled Americans in more prejudiced times than this.

Suddenly, Trump’s Ugliest Threats Are Facing Surprise GOP Resistance

 

  Quote

There are still nearly two months to go before Donald Trump assumes the presidency again, but Republicans or GOP-adjacent industries have already begun to admit out loud that some of his most important policy promises could prove disastrous in their parts of the country.

These folks don’t say this too directly, out of fear of offending the MAGA God King. Instead, they suggest gingerly that a slight rethink might be in order. But unpack what they’re saying, and you’ll see that they’re in effect acknowledging that some of Trump’s biggest campaign promises were basically scams.

Expand  

 

 

  Quote

In Georgia, for instance, some local Republicans are openly worried about Trump’s threat to roll back President Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act. The IRA is pouring hundreds of billions of dollars into incentives for the manufacture and purchase of green energy technologies, from electric vehicles to batteries to solar power. Trump endlessly derided this as the “green new scam” and pledged to repeal all uncommitted funds.

But now The New York Times reports that Trump supporters like state Representative Beth Camp fear that repeal could destroy jobs related to new investments in green manufacturing plants in the state. Camp worries that this could leave factories in Georgia “sitting empty.”

You heard that right: This Republican is declaring that Trump’s threatened actions could leave factories sitting empty. 

Expand  

 

  Quote

One of Trump’s central campaign claims was that Biden’s green energy investments will cause enormous job losses in manufacturing sectors like the traditional auto industry. In reality, the IRA is spurring an outpouring of private investment that’s creating hundreds of thousands of new jobs, many in advanced manufacturing and well suited for people without college degrees—in the very areas that in MAGA folklore were abandoned by liberal and Democratic elites.

Now Republicans are declaring that repeal of the IRA is the thing that could create empty factories. Another Georgia GOP state lawmaker tells the Times that repealing tax credits encouraging the use of solar panels could make local manufacturing “jobs disappear.” House Republicans from districts benefiting from these investments are also primed to resist.

This is outstanding. I'm sorry that your ingenuity didn't pay off. 

One of my buddies and I spent much of middle school contemplating how we might be able to fraudulently obtain one of those cable TV unscramblers advertised in the back of magazines in pursuit of the Spice Network and the Playboy Channel.

We never came up with an actionable plan. 

Edit - I confess that I may have misunderstood the purpose of your shenanigans. Thought you were trying to scheme your way into getting porn more than playing pranks on teachers... 

Expand  

I bought one of those descramblers. I’m pretty sure I just sent a money order. It worked just fine. The Playboy Channel wasn’t carried by our cable provider but HBO, Cinemax (aka Skinemax), and Showtime were. I remember a lot of skin being shown in the 1975 flick Confessions of a Pop Performer when my excitement about the success of my new purchase was tempered by my fear of my mom walking into the room and discovering it.

My big mistake was asking her ahead of time if I could order it. She said no, of course. I ordered it anyway. So when she noticed it, she knew what it was. I never should’ve mentioned it. I should’ve just bought it and attached it and she probably never would’ve even noticed. If she did I could’ve just said it was a signal booster or something and she would’ve bought it.

Live and learn.

You're describing most of voting base for Republicans. They don't think about policy, they pick the guy they like most - surprise surprise it's the old white racist landlord, not the black prosecutor - and then take policy cues from their chosen avatar. 

They repeat any partisan attack with the full faith of it being 100% true, to the point of completely disassociating from objective reality. It's how they whip themselves up and motivate action, while suppressing enthusiasm from the opposition. 

It's totalitarian politics.

I've been told that the Constitution is chiseled in stone.  If a Dem president came in and wanted to suspend the second amendment through executive actions, the R's would be screaming about a civil war.  Trump wants to suspend the 14th and it's, oh well.  There are at least two SC justices that will rule that the president has the right to suspend and amendment.

Actually, their pitch is that it actually wasn’t properly ratified so it isn’t actually an amendment.
You think I’m kidding.

You think an intardnet meme with quotes from "Anonymous in Georgia" is legitimate and reflective of reality?  I mean, it might be.  It also might be bullshit propaganda meant to tweak your brain and keep you involved as a participant in the strife.  The left isn't above that, as evidenced by the dark Biden memes when he was really just a drooling octogenarian who should have been put in memory care a long time ago.  Or all the Kamala hopium being pumped into the infosphere that obfuscated the real feelings of voters before the election.  And there are other actors who don't care about the ideological battle in the US or who wins.  They just want the battle, and they want it to be BIG.

Everyone needs a higher bar for the 3rd hand+ information they allow to carry weight in their brains.

The issue is that the oligarchy is well-positioned if the Democratic Party were to remain in power and if they do return to power in the next presidential election cycle, they will be grateful for the support of the oligarchs.

Everyone loves to complain about govt waste but 99% of that "waste" goes into the pockets of everyday Americans. Wasting money with Ukrainian war has put billions into American defense contractors who hire everyday people. Now we divert that waste into state unemployment benefits.
