#1 Threat to America: Democrats Win in November

Intelligence and education are independent variables, as you so humorously demonstrate.
I do not take exception to your stating the obvious.

I have not speculated regarding intelligence, nor do I believe that it is endemic to any state or region.
 
democrats have promised to attack every republican in office if they win, they have promised to attack ICE Homeland security and border patrol as well. That is what they promised so explain how anything gets done with them doing that instead of running the country?
And that's the flaw of a democracy, if you have enough idiots that votes for someone to open the border, place illegal immigrants above the law, and hate it's indigenous population, then shit times ahead. Democracy is reliant on the people's education, and there are an awful lot of thickos out there these days.
 
As I recall Taz, in the summer of 2024 you announced that on good word of very reliable people you knew, Trump had zero chance of getting reelected.

He then went out and took every swing state and won the popular vote too.

But I'll admit that the GOP has not done much in the past year to make anyone want to vote R, then again, much of their failure is owed to democrats disrupting and blocking the peaceful transfer of power refusing to allow Trump to carry out the agenda he was elected for.

Trump Promises to be elected in 2016 and 2024

deport all immigrants living in the country illegally Starting with the Criminals.


He didn't start with the criminals. He started with many that were working to become citizens including children. While I don't completely disagree with the Idea, I do find the actual method used as downright criminal.


Build a border wall

By law, Trump was given 1.4 billion extra for finishing that wall. All but 450 miles were finished. He spent the money on construction of new wall and replacement of dilapidated old walls. The real problem is, much of that proposed building new wall in the last 450 miles is that it's privately owned land. Unless it was procured by the Government buying it or imminent domain the owners of the land had to give permission for that construction. Most refused. Instead of doing what needed to be done, he sensationalized things, called it a national emergency, deflected money from things like Military Base Housing and only went so far. He purchases walls that could not be built. Plus, there were millions that are not accounted for.

End birthright citizenship

The 14th Amendment would have to be thrown out of severely rewritten. He never went after it like he should have and gotten the 2/3rds of the States to file for it in a Constitutional Convention or by selling the sitting Congress to pass a law by a 2/3rds majority to amend the 4th amendment. Instead, he sowed hate and fear to the public. Our Constitution was written to be changed as needed but the Founding Fathers didn't make it easy. And yes, some US Citizens were "Deported" to death prisons in South America.

Restore and expand the travel ban

The travel ban’s third and final version restricted U.S. entry to people from the seven countries, plus Chad, North Korea and Venezuela. That was ended since it was an executive order alone. Even though it was supported by Supreme Court in 2018, in his second term it was not supported anymore.

Shift parts of federal law enforcement to assist with immigration enforcement

ICE was extremely expanded. And it was poorly trained. He took support from the Border Patrol and moved it into the ICE operation. When it was first planned, like most, I supported the idea but it was another case of the idea is good but the implementation is not. The end results was, it terrorized families, deported the wrong people and wasn't just for arresting and deporting known criminals. The Communities are now striking back in the Courts and Law Enforcement over this. It's not resolved to this day.

Suspend refugee resettlement

He reduced the Refugee Resettlement to zero. If you agree with this, I suggest he read the Statue of Liberty inscription.

"Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips.
"Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"


Terminate the Customs and Border Protection’s CBP One app

It used to be that if someone could make it from a deep south american country into Mexico or any other friendly nation, they could apply for US Citizenship. Only about 15% met the requirements and would have to find their way to the legal US Border to finish the process. Trump stopped that. That means that the Caravans were made larger even before he was elected the first time. And make no convention about it, the Caravans still are happening but there are fewer people doing border patrol because the are playing ICE in other parts of the country.

"Revoke the student visas of radical anti-American and antisemitic foreigners at colleges and universities."

If we remove the "antisemitic" phrase, it was already being done. Trump added that phrase. Plus, it now included any non citizen that would speak out against Trump and his regime.


I'll stop here. It's just too massive to repeat unless I used up 20 pages. And very few things passed the SOCTUS permission. And most started out as a good idea but got Bastardized into some really strange methods.

Almost nothing Trump promised in either 2016 or 2024 survived the smell test.

Given his hastening mental deterioration, the fate of his petty vendettas, and the feared will of the people about to express itself in November, I do not anticipate that he will be expanding the litany of his accomplishments you have nicely summarized.

His surrender of the growing global clean energy technology market to China is yet another significant instance of Trumpery that will endure.
 
I continually welcome contradictory data.

Where is it?

Pucker up because it's coming and you have only your orange cult Messiah to blame for it.
Really?

The GOP is winning the gerrymandering battle and you are going to claim this?

Arizona hasn't even entered the picture yet....but it's coming.
 
Will ending the war with Iran and a booming economy be enough to overcome the pathological hatred of President Trump that has infected so many people?
Let's just presume that the left gets the house.

This game is just about over.

Nothing is going to get done, except there might be a huge gang fight on the house floor (where many lefties will exit early to head for the hospital).

The tactics used by the left are going to be turned on them. The hatred for the left is going to grow at an incredible rate as the right discards all restraint and starts openly challenging the left on every turn. And it will only escalate from there. While I don't like it.....I think it ends in violence. We are already seeing that. And what law enforcement can do is very limited. They are not set up for open warefare. Just look at the skirmishes up in Portland.

Nobody will say it, but that is where it is headed. We've chosen it through our actions and activities. This has nothing to do with Trump. He is the product of our rage. He doesn't stoke it as much as the left would like to think. THEY stoke it. And it's there.
 
Maybe Trump could try to be less of a jackass?
 
I politely requested that you post your data that contradicts the accepted science.

Thank you for providing everything you have.
You are welcome.

It shows how much respect I have for you as an American and a human being.

We are way way way way beyond that now.

Trump threw that one away a long time ago.

It's a matter of damage control at this point.

The nice thing is that the left is so ****** up, it can't make it work for them.
