  1. You didn’t see Trump caved spectacularly to Putin at Helsinki? Humiliating his own intelligence agency & making excuses for Putin. Seem you pretty much a permanent tenant in denial land.
  2. Can’t blame me for your ambiguous post. Are you saying that 2 m illegals crossed the border each years or 2 m migrants are processed and released each year while their applications are being vetted. By the way, more than 2 m are expelled or each year at the border. Every cities are bursting with migrants because GOP governors refused to sit down and coordinate the evacuation. Biden’s administration is not against sharing the burden of housing the migrants; just need better information sharing and coordination.
  3. Every US adminstration foreign policy enaged in good relationship with Russia. There are always substantial meetings between government officials. The corner stone of a good foreign policy is how the government ability to project America's power, prestige and global influence. Seem his foreign policy are one of grievance, mood and transactional. He alienated of US allies, particularly Europe by his submissive behavior for Putin and pulling out of agreements have degraded US global leadership. Heavy price to pay grovelling to Putin, Kim and Xi.
  4. Nikki Haley as well as Ron DeSantis said 8 million illegals'cross the border. Tom Cotton put the number higher at 10 million illegals and Marco Rubio on CNN "State of Union 'said 3.3 million conservatively. You said 2 miilion. You rightist nuts just can't put your acts together and have some semblance of reality.
  5. Savvy response by Thaksin. Senators only firing a warning shot. Both sides will heed the warning. The country sighs a relief of further political instability.
  6. Acquittal - slim Hung - real chance Conviction - fairly good https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2024/05/24/trump-trial-verdict-00159676
  7. As an importer, I find paying in local currencies has much lesser exchange risks. USD fluctuation is highly disruptive for business. For years I have been importing products from Malaysia and paying in MYR. The exchange between Baht and MYR has been much less volatile and been helpful in managing my finance. This Thai and China agreement will be meet with lots of approvals from local comapnies that do business with China.
  8. Yes this event when students waving Palestine flags walk out. Biden then spoke that he support non violent protest and that he heard their voices and promised to continuously seek solutions. But I digressed. This was the important part. Biden's speech was largely uninterrupted. When he finished, attendees in the VIP section chanted, “Four more years.” “
  9. Trump has done massive damage to the trust of major institutions. US enemies have been covertly working to undermine Americans distrust of their institutions for years. Is he working for the enemies?
  10. Your man was talking about putting on his pants again. What’s wrong with him?
  11. Biden began his Sunday delivering the commence address at Morehouse College before arriving in Detroit in the afternoon for a private campaign event and then followed that up speaking at the 69th annual NAACP Fight for Freedom Fund dinner at Huntington Place. A packed and exhausting day. I doubt Trump has the energy and fitness for such schedule.
  12. It is unlikely for Trump to flip the state of New York but it does provide an opportunity for Trump to create some excitement among his supporters who otherwise might not get to attend a Trump rally and for non supporters to be at the rally to protest. Trump is doing his usual thing in attracting press attention in the nation's biggest media market. A rather banal event.
  13. If you only bother to find and not jump clueless to defend Trump. https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/new-atlanticist/trump-s-reversal-of-north-korea-sanctions-sends-a-dangerous-signal/#:~:text=Announcing his decision to reverse,withdrawal of those additional Sanctions!” Abraham Accord I agree. It was Trump indecision on the status of Palestine in the Accord that add to the instability. US is treaty bound to defend its allies. You are trivializing the seriousness of NATO to defend their members just because of Trump’s idiosyncrasy.
  14. My bad. There are lot to unpack on the accuracy of Gabbard's statements.
  15. Best of luck with your isolation theory and a new axis of evil.
  16. That's what required of a President who made promise and keep promise. A concept hard for you to understand when you surrender your morality to orange jesus. Tulsi Gabbard LOL. Since when had she debated. Please tell. She has repeatedly refused to debate and has not particpated in any primary debates since 2012 election. By the way, VP Harris has championed Bidenomics and has supported small businesses. She is not only a busines leader, she was a civic leader and matriarch of the community.
  17. World leaders who have seen the choatic years of Trump's Presidency are too feeling anxious and bracing for the uncomfortable prospect of seeing him again. Allies had never seen any American Presidents past and present like Trump who threatened to rip up treaties and often made bilateral disagreement personal. He rather be friendly to Russia, China and North Korea than US closest allies. Now he made clear his foreign policy will be transactional. Russia can do what they want if allies are delinquent in defence spending and thus encouraging invasions of US closest allies by muderous regimes. South Korea and Taiwan should be anxious too. Trump has threatened to withdraw troops and has blamed Taiwan for taking all US chip business. Trump will be a disaster for the world if he gain office.
  18. I guess his reasons are she is black American, from South Asia and a woman. VP Harris is a trusted partner to the President and worked together well. She fought well for the freedom of women to make decisions about their own bodies and the freedom to live safe from gun violence. She is a strong advocate for clean air and water and spoke out for democracry and freedom to vote. Trump is a intellectual midget compare to VP Harris.
  19. The borders are secured. Those are asylum seekers that should be processed at the borders but Abbott used them for his political stunt by sending them to Dem cities. The Biden administration has no problem with the sending of the undocumented migrants but only need better coordination but Abbott is simply using them as political props to score political points. Disgusting act by Abbott
  20. Maybe you can find in the bipartisan border security bill that funds will be deployed to increase border detention facilities and more legal resources to quicken the asylum process. Go find out rather than keep asking trivial questions.
  21. Illegals are temporarily house in hotels now and similarly housed in hotels under Trump's administration. Better control of them than allow them go free. They get basic food and laundry. Basic humanitarian welfare by any nations. Under federal laws, unqualified migrants do not get health care etc. They are processed accordingly for asylum application or work. Biden officials have deported 500,000 people back to Mexico and other countries since ending Title 42.
  22. Abbott is using the illegals as political props and pawns to made Biden look bad.
  23. Military is not the solution and so you divert. Still wrong with the 2.2 million. Those are apprehensions which meant that Biden’s administration better policies, system and structure have reduced illegals. Apprehensions are up towards the 80% and above mark. Vast improvement comparing to the 33% in the 2000s. Other reasons are migrants rather turn themselves as asylum seekers rather than try to sneak in illegally. I agree with offering aids and cooperation with the source countries which the Biden administration is engaging and go after those who hire illegals. Maybe start with Mar-la-go
  24. Obama set up the cages for unaccompanied migrant children. Trump zero migrant policies separate children from parents. That’s inhuman. Trump has left 4,000 children in cages for Biden. Biden administration is reconnecting the children and those who can’t be connected are being adopted. There are still unaccompanied migrant children and they are kept in facilities that provide health and service. This will be an ongoing problem and there should be bipartisan solutions. Trump is trying to make this an issue for personal political leverage.
