No.. I'm looking at the long term. What's BEST for the USA and IT'S citizens.

No sir. It's not like that at all. It's called ENFORCING the laws.


Stupid arse comments made out of ignorance.

The issue isn't enforcing federal law. It's how they're trying to enforce federal law.


What about how they're doing it is the problem? When people are hiding from law enforcement I don't know of any other way to deal with them other than to find them.

Kind of matters in terms of what government we get.


Not if the Republicans won't advance their agenda once they do get elected.

If all they're willing to do is stuff that the Democrats are also willing to do, there's not much difference, is there?

It hurt 2022 bigly


Prove it. I say division in the party is what hurt 2022 bigly. And even if you are right, so what? It took a whole two years to swing the pendulum back again.

quote:

More leftist governments will mean more abortions. How is that a win for the anti-abortion POV?


Again, not if you had your way. If Republicans do not oppose abortion for fear of losing elections, what difference does it make which party is in office refusing to oppose abortion?

quote:

There is a huge gap in an admin action being legal and good policy and popular.

I don't think anyone is arguing it would be illegal, on here. The question/issue is if it's a good policy and if it will be popular.


I wasn't arguing legality. As far as I know, none of the examples I cited resulted in anyone who would otherwise have been elected not being elected. And the country was just as divided over race then as it is over Trump now. It's not like enforcing desegregation and civil rights were overwhelmingly popular in the country at the time (maybe by the time the Civil Rights Act was passed a majority had come around, but not in 1957 or the early 60s).
