I wonder if HK ever gets tired of being wrong.

Good idea. Give the cartels an inside track to selling legalized pot in the states that allow it, then create some tax loophole for foreign NAFTA companies in exchange for border security.

That’s brilliant. Seriously.

A coherent solution to job growth, increased trade, higher standard of living, increase in GDP, border security, crime, along with a lot of unmentioned tangential ills not only in Mexico, but here and in Central America as well.

You should run for office. You’ll get vote, for damn sure

It’s a shame that some folks feel the need to resort to blanket ad hominem attacks on a person and not the specifics of their dialogue that pertains to ideology.

I don’t have to agree with someone to be civil. And personally, I find these discussion stimulating and informative.

For those of you that can’t resist, you can now proceed to call me a fvcktard. I don’t mind if it makes you feel better

Cyber bullies some of us are. I was on the Next door app yesterday and was called a jerk and all these other people were than me for showing compassion to a jumper. This is the internet, there is rarely uplifting and + thoughts here.

From what I hear, you should stay away from Twitter.

We use Twitter at work. I never use it unless it’s an emergency.

Thanks, but it would never work. I'd be interested in fixing the problems instead of just campaigning about them, so I'd never have party backing. And if I somehow became president, Congress would never go along even if I could fix everything, because they'd be afraid they'd have to explain why they hadn't done anything before.

Besides, I don't even have a facebook or twitter account.

I'm kinda' slow on the uptake but .............. why not just close the border? Period. People and goods. Shut the MF down. Build a wall, close any doors.

Money.
Both Dems and Repubs do not want the border closed.
Each side benefits from the porous border.

And that is the reason the real fixes never get enacted. The President is the only one actually trying to solve this.

I see lefty’s & dems getting out of control. They lack self control at it is, I mean, they feel the need to act out on every impulse and whim imaginable. Regardless how extreme.

My Little Pony fetishist’s aren’t conservative. Then again...

Not finding any compelling arguments for the tariffs in this thread that I started.

"Doing something foolish is superior to doing nothing" has very little weight as a debating point.

Our own, experienced and influential, GOP Senator Cornyn has the huevos to call BS on the concept.
