For me, it's easy.

Trump is a fascist and I don't want that for my country.

Your country?

It was stolen from the Native Indian

You could bring up about just about any off topic thing you want and you probably will.

Interest rate policy: Biden-Harris cut rates prematurely to juice the economy with a sugar high. QE is next. (THIS is destroying my dollar.)

 

 

Keep in mind as you likely know it is the Fed decision to cut interest rates - not politicians. It may not be good for the dollar in the short term - it is a hopeful sign of beating inflation and is a boon to the economy and spending power of borrowers.

As for the US economy under trump (given that he hasn't got a clue)...........

 

“If Donald Trump did half of what he’s promising, the results for the US economy would be chaotic and negative,” says Jason Furman, a former White House economist in the Obama administration, who is now a Harvard professor.

“The biggest thing we have on our side against China is we’re part of a bloc of countries that get along pretty well. Putting tariffs on all of those countries would rip that apart.”

 

 “Sixteen Nobel laureates have described his economic plan as something that would increase inflation and, by the middle of next year, would invite a recession,” Harris said in the debate.

Some people already know who will win. Let us recall what happened in the last elections.

She has not been "border czar" the past 4 years either?

Kamala blames the border crisis and the invasion of millions of illegals on Trump. You can’t make this up.

 

Are you a charter member of "Foreigners Against Illegal Immigration - in America"?

 

Does it really bother you that someone enters the US illegally ? How about those North Koreans sneaking into China?

You support mass illegal migration into the US, true or false?

I don't, but I am curious why foreigners care about US illegal immigration.

Kamala's got a new word in the salad bar- 'holistically' probably has no idea what it actually means. Another train wreck interview:

I have not seen anything from Drake to suggest he is a Trump supporter. Perhaps you can back that claim up with some actual proof.

Vice President Kamala Harris has visited both the U.S.-Mexico border and Europe during her time in office, though the timing and context of each trip were different.

1. **Mexico Border**:  
   Harris visited the U.S.-Mexico border on **June 25, 2021**, going to **El Paso, Texas**. This visit followed criticism that she had not yet visited the border after being tasked by President Biden with addressing the root causes of migration from Central America. During the trip, she toured facilities and met with border officials and local advocates to discuss immigration and border issues.

2. **Europe**:  
   Harris has visited several European countries during her vice presidency. Notable trips include:
   - **November 2021**: Harris visited **France**, where she met with French President Emmanuel Macron and attended international events to strengthen diplomatic ties.
   - **February 2022**: She traveled to **Germany** to attend the **Munich Security Conference**, where she worked to solidify NATO alliances and coordinate responses to the growing tensions between Russia and Ukraine. This visit was just before Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

 

Yes she did visit the border, following which nothing changed.

 

As for "visiting" Europe- sitting in a tin can for a few hours, travelling in a motorcade to a conference, and returning to the plane for another few hours flight back to the US, does not count as getting to know a foreign country.

She could have done that by video conference and saved a few tons of aviation fuel and traffic congestion.

There is a problem with the constitution in America when both parties trying to sabotage each other constantly. 

 

While China just sign the orders, and gets them done. It might lead to great mistakes, but they get things done. 

 

Do we want to be like China? No, but we are loosing

The constitution is not to blame. It was written before the travesty of life time politicians existed, and in any event no one lived as long as to become senile on the job.

 

It can be amended, but the chance of them voting to deprive themselves of a lifetime career feasting from the taxpayer trough is nil, IMO.

The problem it that too often the Constitution is ignored. The federal government is much too large and overreaching. If Supreme Court Justices adhered to the Constitution and did not legislate from the bench, the country would be in much better shape.

Straight out of the mouth of one of the supporting news channels.

Kamala Harris fails to make clear how she will pay for ‘$1.6 trillion’ family giveaway

https://www.yahoo.com/news/kamala-harris-fails-clear-she-144839559.html

 

Ms Ruhle, speaking after the interview was broadcast, said that the vice president “doesn’t answer the question” and would be forced to borrow more to fund her campaign giveaways.

“If the GOP is controlling the Senate, if she can’t raise corporate taxes, where is she going to get the money from to expand the child tax credit and do whatever she wants to do?’” she said on MSNBC.

“And she says, ‘we just have to do it.’

 

“That’s great and that’s a campaign promise, but the issue is, if it means we’re going to just borrow again, then what we’re doing is we’re just never addressing the deficit.”

So she could have watched a bodycam or TV show of the border and not gone?
