lol interesting take because I'm 38 and was thinking "this was before I was born", which is what prompted my reaction lol

us young pups must not realize how long life really is

It's not just how long life is, but how 40 years is just a blip in the grand scheme of things.

I'm interested in the agreement and how exactly the DEMs broke the agreement.

I'll look for the link I had and I remember the news and coverage at the time. It was about how if we signed this it would fix the problem fairly giving the people here a chance at a better life and keep the US from being in this situation again.

The democrats and the Republicans were then supposed to fix the border if only we gave these people a chance at a better life that are already here.

What situation? Them being here? We needed these people. We need immigration.

40 years was yesterday to some.

The situation of illegals. Legal immigration is fine. Control of our borders.

@oldshadow It seems you are trying to kind of distance yourself from the fact that Reagan granted amnesty to all these people by saying, "But the DEMs didn't hold up their side of the bargain". Reagan granted amnesty to these people because he knew that they were a net positive to the United States, just as they are now.

@oldshadow I am all for immigration reform. Seems like a remember a bipartisan bill that was on the table that Trump blew up. There seems to be a large part of the GOP, and of course Trump, that wants the problem to continue so they can use it as a wedge issue.

We are talking illegals and they should not have gotten in or remain here. Come legal or don't come.

He signed the bill because he believed the next step was to stop illegal immigration including over stays.

It was stupid on him for believing the democrats would do this and even believing his own party would force it. It was an all-around dumb move.

That's funny since Trump doesn't want industries that rely on illegal labor to be targeted. What's your excuse for that now?

 

[Confucamus]

And? They had court hearings in the place that they were shipped out of. It was political theatre that used humans as pawns.

It proved Desantis' point perfectly.

It was cruel but you guys don't have empathy for brown people.

We need comprehensive immigration reform. Why not do that now? You guys control the gov't. You have the votes and a 6-3 SCOTUS. This is why I think there is no good faith conversation from the right when it comes to immigration. Trump stonewalled a bipartisan bill because he wanted to run on the problem. The GOP have an opportunity right now to pass an immigration reform bill. What do we get? The National Guard and Marines on the streets of American and a spending bill that is the largest transfer of wealth upwards that we have ever seen while slashing healthcare and SNAP. You may be sincere, but the party you support most certainly is not.

The Republican Party is completely inept at legislation but is crushing on identify/vibe politics.

100%. They have the bro vote and it killed the DEMs.

I struggle to think of the last time the GOP passed major legislation that was both good for the country and broadly popular.

@fingercuffs

Of course ICE raids matter, like they did this time last year. Just not by a buncha cowboys that Captain Bonespurs pardoned after beating the fuck out of our cops.

 

[fingercuffs]

@ColemanwastheGOAT is an ignorant sack of shit. He's beneath you and not worth one bit of your time other than the occasional post to ridicule him.

And too much of a coward to respond.

No excuse from me as I stated before. Any business that knowing hire illegals should be fined out of business.

First pass a bill to make sure the border is secured and make it a felony to over stays or enter illegally. Then we can talk about finding a way for some illegals to maybe stay.

Do it then. You guys control every branch. DO IT.
