biggles45 Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 I can't help but wonder tho what percentage of the million+ illegals who have recently crossed the border will be employable, pay taxes, rent accommodation etc and be a financial benefit to the American economy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bendejo Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 This crisis at the border trope was amped up back when Rove and DIck Cheney were running things, to create a state of fear. There have been people seeping across the border for a very long time and suddenly the GOP was screaming about it. Fox couldn't get enough of it. On the other hand all the attention sent a message out to the world that yes, the US has a porous southern border, it was not a myth, and the numbers increase. And as Fox broadcasts the same abroad as it does in the US the world gets to see the ugliness of the US political system. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would anyone expect him to handle the border crisis any more effectively than say, the withdrawal from Afghanistan? It's a pattern of dysfunctional management. An inept administration led by a senile old man. It certainly doesn't give one confidence in Biden's ability to navigate an increasingly precarious situation elsewhere. Seems he got a free ride from the press in the first 3 years, and the chickens are now coming home to roost. At the worst possible time for Biden and the best possible time for his opponent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a solution close to being signed into law that Trump killed. You kill the solution, you own the problem. ABC poll says the public blames Biden. I must admit, however, that I don't think Trump will do any more than he did in his first term, if elected. His only two pieces of legislation were tax breaks for billionaires and letting criminals out of jail early. Here is a pdf of the poll. https://www.ipsos.com/sites/default/files/ct/news/documents/2024-02/Topline ABC_Ipsos Poll Feb 10 2024 final PDF.pdf 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall immigrations are good for the economy as researched by the Brookings Hamilton Project. Unfortunately this become a political football being kicked around and down the road. Sad how brainwashed some are. 81yo dementia guy is the biggest joke in history of the USA. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
